As an investor of Tesla who bought into Elon's vision I've been getting more and more nervous about how the company is actually run at this point. A modern car company is as much of a production and supply chain company as it's a product and tech company. I get the feeling that due to Tesla being cutting edge in the tech department it led to all the supply chain/production problems being treated as if they are speed…

I guess it's a good reality check for autonomous cars when you take away the LIDAR toys. One rather important point is that the car often doesn't realize it is screwing up, because quelle surprise, realizing you don't have a correctly detected lane can be just as difficult as detecting one in the first place.

You're concerned with a 23% YTD return on the stock and a 600% return over 5 years? The market has a way of signaling if a company is totally screwed up. Looks like it isn't.
While the 600% is impressive, the year to date performance matches the overall market.
Gotta hit those Model 3 dates to maintain the confidence.

Historical performance is also not an indicator of future performance. Everyday I'm holding onto the shares is the same as if I made the decision to buy that many shares on that day. If anything the fantastic return would encourage long term investors so far to partially cash out and diversify their risk a bit.

Tesla is basically taking on a loan in form of a convertible notes. probably much smarter to distribute their lender among multiple entities than one giant bank that would have leverage on them. Also, it looks like Tesla would use a portion of the money to inflate their share prices via a small buyback. The after market trading so far make this strategy look successful. So at the end of a day: Tesla is raising capita…
"Tesla is basically taking on a loan in form of a convertible notes."
"So at the end of a day: Tesla is raising capital without diluting their shareholders and reducing their share values"
Convertible debt is in fact dilutive. It's even specifically accounted for when calculating Diluted Earnings per Share : http://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/dilutedeps.asp

Can you explain why do you consider AP2 to be a downgrade from AP1? I thought it's everything AP1 has + more.
It was supposed to take 2 months, but viola, 6 months later they are still struggling and there are many YouTube videos out there showing how terrible and unsafe it is.
It still lack many features of AP1 such as automatic lane changing and blind spot detection at this point. Lane keeping is also not as stable and safe as AP1 and many videos show that the car like to drift into oncoming traffic.
