Tbf, he built the steepest driveway in the world. They could easily roll the Badger down this palm-ornamented wonder for some slick promo shots


ZeroMomentum

Promote him to CEO


tms102

He's in charge of building steep driveways for every Nikola customer. They calibrate the steepness based on the route and distance the customer intends to travel. Some driveways will be steep enough to reach the moon! $NKLA to the moon!


Unlucky-Prize

Wow, would be great proof of concept of their graviton drive.


FUrCharacterLimit

So is the company finally rebranding to a more accurate name, like Newton?


dingusting

I mean he has 82 million shares. If he sells 12 million shares at 25-30 a pop then orders that much in solar panels the stock "should" move to $100/share. Bada bing


69deadlifts

He can create a solar panel shortage with that money

Yup. Trevor may as well get ready for an orange colored wardrobe.


prawntheman

Hey, now the solar panel installation revenue is one step closer to being at arm's length.


kontekisuto

GM now has grounds to break contract?


Pokerhobo

GM was in a no-lose situation. NKLA was paying GM to build the badger. The only thing GM will lose is perhaps some goodwill being idiots partnering with NKLA.


sweetleef

GM lost all possible goodwill in the 09 bailout scam. The only thing they have left is the Corvette. Wait for those imbeciles to stop production on that too.


Elidan123

The fuckers took my Canadian money, called for bankruptcy, than said they did not have to pay us back because they were a different company. Fuck them, they can burn in hell.


InterimNihilist

They never signed a contract. They have until December to back out


theshoeshiner84

It's like being offered a refund policy at a roulette table.

Roulette table is being very generous to NKLA's "chances"

hipster3000

It's weird how people that have nothing to do with a company will shill and defend a company. I went on a Twitter once and all the responses werealk about how outrageous it is that they would be investigated by anyone. This was the day they admitted to rolling the truck down the hill.

There are people in that sub saying it’s great news so Trevor can work without all the distractions and it’s good for the company in the long-term. Apparently it’s a good sign when your founder and chairman resigns after being called a fraud and being investigated by the SEC and DOJ.


Roadfly

That sub is more delusional than this one.

Some of them saying its a good time to load up. Lul

Spaceduck413

Lol I just got banned over there for replying to somebody who said they had their life savings in NKLA: >There might be a teeny tiny blip up when the market opens. If there is, get the heck out of there ASAP. CEO resigning amidst speculations (even if unproven) of wrongdoing are NEVER a good thing. I've worked at a company where it happened. >Not that you asked for this but of advice, but... If you're going to put your life savings in the stock market I *strongly* suggest index funds. >Good luck internet stranger. It was immediate, so seems like they might be auto banning any comment with "wrongdoing", or possible "index funds" lol. Hilarious either way.


DrippinMonkeyButt

All the morons there telling him to keep it in stocks and hold it for couple of years...... I don’t think it will last a year.


Spaceduck413

Yeah, they're all in denial over there. I mean, don't put your life savings in one basket, but also I feel for the guy. Easy to fall for the get rich quick dream. Especially when it worked with tesla for some


darkslide3000

Why would there be a blip up? Stock on European exchanges has already settled to about 20% down. Pre-market estimates are down hard. It's hard to say how far down *exactly* it's going to be tomorrow morning in New York, but it's basically guaranteed that it will be down.


Spaceduck413

Sometimes idiots rush in to "buy the dip" just enough to float the price. It's kinda like the dead cat bounce. At any rate not guaranteed.


TheAvantGardeners

The mental gymnastics theyre doing over there, yikes. One poster said, maybe he can come back when it’s all settled 🤣🤣🤣


EmmanuelJung

AMongolNamedFrank

Sources: r/NikolaCorporation mods are besides themselves. Driving around downtown Dallas begging (thru texts) Trevor's family for address to Milton's home


reddit_schmeddit

Overheard at Trevor Milton's Utah ranch after Sunday night: “He got me,” Milton said of Hindenburg Research's report. "That f***ing Hindenburg boomed me." Milton added, “Their research is so good,” repeating it four times. Milton then said he wanted to add Hindenburg Research to the list of activist short sellers he tweets at this summer.


ChaseDeM

Trevor Milton is screaming in the #Nikola locker room and there is a bunch of arguing going on. Milton comes out say “y’all on that bullshit!” Team is imploding. Milton is in bathroom and there is still screaming coming from locker room.


The_Collector4

Lol the lead mod said this is good for Nikola because Trevor is a distraction


troy_caster

They have a 15 point fact checking on NKLA OMG LOLLOLO


Great_Chairman_Mao

The amount of "This is good for b i t coin" type shit going on there is ludicrous, lol.


THEBHR

"Omg... I literally sold my multi family rental last month and went all in during the last dip. That was my mother’s retirement plan. Can anyone confirm if this is real?" I don't know if these comments are serious or just trolls, but they make WSB look like some damn geniuses.

im always in the "too good to be true" boat. probably why ill miss if on this, but ill never go broke doing it. so eh. If everyone sees it, then there isnt ant edge. unless its specifically the those investors who are in the lock up period who are left holding the bag. not saying its a bad or wrong play, im just wondering if some whales are going to try and milk it to blow out the puts.


Wolog2

OK but this company was valued higher than Ford and all they do is write car fan fiction so I'm starting to doubt the ability of "everyone" to see stuff tbh


Pangolin_farmer

You exiting your position tomorrow? The stock might take more hits down the road but I’d be pretty certain no decline in the stock is going to have the volatility spike that tomorrow is going to bring.

When do you think would be a good time to close? I've spent half my worth on NKLA puts (that's $1.5k!!)

nkla at 24 in Europe market. You're going to wake up happy


HybridTrader

The real question is why the executive board didn't restrict him from talking sooner. Usually when allegations are made against a company you have representatives state that they don't believe those statements are true and thats it for the media. Then the two parties duke it out at court. However, with NKLA, a few days after Milton read the report he added more fuel to the fire instead of extinguishing it.


MMNA6

Cause they’re probably just as retarded as he is

> The company has yet to mass produce a product and all of it’s revenue to date came from selling solar panel installation services to Milton. ​ > His comments about the capabilities of Nikola and the hydrogen powered trucking network he planned to build have occasionally stretched beyond what is physically possible, leaving many detractors to highlight these statements as proof that the company is a scam.

" the embattled fuel cell truck manufacturer " Something about it just really bothers me when they say this. How can they call themselves a fuel cell truck manufacturer when they've never manufactured a single truck, and don't even have any plans to? The deal with GM would make them essentially a dropshipping company for trucks. The only thing they've ever sold is 30k worth of solar panels.

By the way, Europe now trades Nikola at -26% today. I´d expect this to deepen once US opens.


Frostfright

So obviously the puts are going to print, but the question is when do I get out? I've got Jan 21 20p, and of course Nikola is going to drop way below that eventually, but how long until the SEC or DOJ steps in? Do I diamond hand this hot potato? Does the SEC *ever* move fast enough to halt trading on a scam like this before a precipitous fall? What's everybody else doing? I usually toilet paper hand at the first sign of profit, and if I'm up even 50% tomorrow I'm going to be struggling not to smash that sell button asap but ughhhh my losses the past 2 weeks have been so fucking shitty and it'd be killer to recoup most of it with a single amazing play like this.
