Tesla’s Supercharging network is the largest fast charging network in North America, and it’s often cited as the EV maker’s biggest competitive advantage. That network is valuable too, with analysts estimating that Tesla could own $7.4 billion of the public charging market by 2030. But in a surprise move, Elon Musk let go of Tesla’s entire Supercharging team, laying off about 500 people, including top executives. Now its future is in question. CNBC explores what’s next for Tesla’s Supercharger network.

Still with Tesla stock, investors can never be sure what will happen next, bearish periods ultimately establish a new set of stocks to buy and watch while setting the stage for a robust new uptrend. I have been reading articles of people that grossed profits up to $250k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

@RossiPopa 3 дня назад

For the average citizen, the tactics are rather demanding. In actuality, most of them are effectively completed by experts who possess the necessary knowledge and skill set to carry out such occupations.

@FusunTumsavas-cq7tp 3 дня назад

a downtrend offers an equally high-yielding avenue if you have the necessary skills and knowledge. This is why I've been using an investment advisor to scale up during this difficult time, and it's the only way I've been able to raise up to $150K in the last six months. It all comes down to technique. The downtrend gives you room to focus on the market and grow-substantially whether in the long or short run.

fascinating! I am new to this whole thing. I've heard that now is a wonderful time to buy, and basically, I have some cash hanging around in the bank that I would really like to spend, especially since inflation is at an all-time high. Who is this coach that helps you, and may I check them up?

One of the issues I don’t hear in this video, is that Tesla’s V3 chargers don’t go above 500V but NEVI funding used to state that a CCS charger must be able to charge “any CCS compliant vehicle” this is obviously indicated that you needed high voltage capability because a car without a voltage booster would be CCS compliant. But now the current language states that NEVI, “allows … other non-proprietary connectors so long as each DCFC charging port is capable of charging a CCS-compliant vehicle” The change from “any CCS vehicle” to “a CCS vehicle” is small and feels pedantic but in the world of law it opened up tesla to not truly provide a quality public charging experience for every car.

You make money whether people buy a Tesla vehicle, Kia vehicle, Ford vehicle etc. Vehicle sales go up and down, have hot models and busts. The consistent money is in maintenance and charging. If anything they should have expanded the charging stations to include battery testing and replacement.

Perhaps we have come to the point where other companies, like BP/Shell, will be able to pick up the slack. I don't see EV numbers doing anything except growing. It's not fair to expect Tesla to supply and maintain charging for the entire EV world worldwide. I have always said that Tesla is not a car company, but an energy company. This movement by Tesla does make me wonder if Tesla is now changing direction from energy to autonomy/AI/bots/compute. I think no matter where Tesla does go, it will be ground breaking and earth shattering. They just have to wait for the rest of us to get there. They got to EVs long before most of us were ready; and now that a lot of us are getting there, they are headed onward into the future again.

Charging stations also need to be designed with full overhangs to cover the full vehicle and charger from elements. Charging is like getting fuel back in the 80’s. Also, for those who pull trailers, there should always be a few designed to easily maneuver the trailer while still attached and charge, again, while under a full-sized overhang that would span a crew cab truck and the charger.

@ACsPianoCorner 10 дней назад

Yes, the large selling point for the Tesla is the charging infrastructure. But I’m surprised that the main headlines from a supercharger team being laid off is this equals the network will lose its competitive advantage. I think its way to early to tell if that will happen especially when there’s numerous reasons for doing this and many more avenues they could explore. First IMO, they can simply slow down. Now that all their competitors have pretty much given up trying to replicate what they have. Opening up the supercharging network to car makers like Ford etc…was a real big win, instead of building quickly perhaps they can even focus efforts on more hubs at current locations and faster charging speeds. The innovation doesn’t stop, it simply shifts. They have the blueprint for making these Tesla charging stations and I suspect they’ll even get some of these companies now wanting to use the Tesla superchargers to help build on their infrastructure too. But, that’s my opinion, we’ll see.

Keep in mind all the employees he's fired so far cost less than a billion per year in salaries. He has pumped the brakes on one of Tesla's few remaining sources of reliable growing income, all the while he's hemorrhaging market share to other EV makers because he's spent the past several years developing an insanely expensive niche pickup truck that the public has lost interest in, and seemingly has no concrete plans as to what to do for his affordable car or robotaxi. He hasn't so much as announced either and production is likely years away from that as history shows. I doubt Tesla will die but its future certainly doesn't look good.

Hard to make the case that people have lost interest in the CT when there are ~2 million orders, and they continue to be able to sell them at $20k over list. As for no concrete plans, you should probably defer making that judgement until after 8/8...when they plan to announce the new car. As for losing market share, well that's inevitable as BEVs increasingly replace IC vehicles....and not a bad thing. As for begging for a $55B pay package, I'd hardly describe it in this way. The guy has worked tirelessly for 6 years without getting a salary. When the $55B deal was struck, virtually nobody thought he would earn it....but he did....and made a whole lot of others rich in the process. With any luck he'll get the $55B reinstated, will continue to make Tesla the world leader in more and more sub-businesses, and shareholders will be rewarded handsomely.

@jpanet 10 дней назад

@@dangrass 100 dollar deposits are not the same thing as orders. They are selling for 20k over list because there is a 20k "founders" fee on every model for a badge on the side and FSD which hasn't been enabled yet. Tesla's market share dropping is inevitable, of course, but is just another indication of its overvaluation. Also, I addressed the 8/8 announcement saying that it's unlikely that anything will ship anytime soon. I have a model 3 with FSD and can attest that it is good... but nowhere near capable of being a robotaxi. For a number of complex reasons, the Convolutional Neural Nets Tesla uses for CV cannot do long term planning like it would need to if Tesla wanted to solve that last 1-2% of driving scenarios that can't be trained. This is not to mention the myriad of other issues related to running a taxi service simultaneously everywhere in the US and the permitting, etc required. Also not to mention that it will probably take them years from the announcement to begin manufacturing anything, as is usual with Tesla announcements. And lastly, Elon absolutely does not deserve 55 billion dollars. I don't care if he met the goal he set for himself by inflating the stock price with false promises, he does not work 50 times harder than every employee he fired combined. If anything in recent years he has been a liability to the company.

But eventually that phone, that car, will have depreciated in value so much that it doesn’t make any sense to fix it anymore. It’s rare that a parents phone is handed down to their child, as they are used to trading them in. And cars are becoming the same. Instead of handing them down, they are trading them in.

And if you want to talk about total engine failures being rare and engines being fixable for much cheaper in most instances... Well... It's the same with EVs if there's ever an issue with the battery. Often times it's a just a handful of bad/fried/prematurely aged battery cells that brick an entire battery pack. Which is fixable. With the right tools and the know-how. There just aren't many independent places specializing in EV battery repairs yet. Give it time, the industry is young. Complete battery failures are at least if not more rare than total engine failures nowadays. And a 30k repair bill for a new battery is basically just a product of greed and laziness on the part of the manufacturers and ignorance of alternative routes on the part of the consumer...
