My TSLA position just cracked the 400% return threshold today. I think a nice steak dinner is justifiable for tonight even though I'm not selling any share yet.

Anyone's thought about PG&E? It emerged back from bankruptcy today.

I'm looking to start a small position, maybe 1000 shares or so while topping out maybe $30k in total.

Or if anyone can recommend an electricity company, that'd be appreciated.

As I dive deeper into TSLA, I see energy industry as a whole is going to go through some major changes due to the disruption batteries (storage), clean energy (production) and consumer sentiment (demand) would bring. And in the long term, I see many of them would consolidate or be bought out.
As much as I don’t like the cult surrounding TSLA and Elon. You are right everybody is just riding TSLA’s success few will make it or even exist in a few Year’s time

NKLA is just shameless from the name to what they are trying to do.
