Cita de: saturno en Noviembre 23, 2019, 13:03:23 pm¿Es el momento de comprar Tesla? Si asustadísimos no se equivoca (y, si lo hace, no creo que sea por mucho tiempo), yo diría que no es buen momento de comprar acciones de Tesla o, ya que estamos, de cualquier otra empresa que cotice en el S&P 500 (probablemente tampoco en el Nadaq ni en el Dow Jones).Como siempre, será imposible saber cuando habrán tocado fondo, pero desde luego cuando baje la marea arrastrará todas las cotizaciones hacia abajo, y será entonces, cuando las aguas se calmen un poco, cuando sea un buen momento para pescar.Saludos.
¿Es el momento de comprar Tesla?
Respecto al diseño, parece un coche futurista de una película de serie B de los años ochenta, o como algunos dicen, el coche de la pixelada Lara Croft.
Respecto a las espectativas, pues crear han creado muchas, con dos días andan por 150.000 reservas.
-Las preorders a 100 dólares del Cybertruck no significan ni de lejos lo mismo que aquellas preorders de a 1000 dólares del M3.
La segunda razón tiene relación con una película de culto como es Blade Runner que, casualidad o no, se desarrolla en un futuro que es nuestro presente […]
Ha llegado la fecha en que se desarrolla Blade Runner'Los Ángeles. Noviembre de 2019', dice un rótulo justo antes de comenzar la película de 1982.

Me tienta interpretarlo como indicador de mayor desahogo económico, desplazando la fuente principal de liquidez desde las reservas, hacia las ventas del M3 (Fremont + Shangai).Saludos.
Audi To Cut 9,500 German Jobs In Switch To ElectrificationPosted by BeauHD on Wednesday November 27, 2019 @08:00AM from the sign-of-things-to-come dept.An anonymous reader quotes a report from Bloomberg:CitarAudi plans to eliminate roughly 15% of its German workforce to lift earnings by $6.6 billion as Volkswagen AG's largest profit maker pushes ahead with a restructuring plan to help adapt to the costly transition to electric cars. The turnaround is aimed at regaining ground lost to luxury-car leaders Mercedes-Benz and BMWand counter pressure from Tesla. Volkswagen has been scrambling to revive Audi's fortunes after turmoil sparked by the aftermath of the 2015 diesel-cheating scandal. By 2025, Audi plans to cut as many as 9,500 jobs in Germany and streamline operations at its two main factories in its home country. The positions will be reduced through attrition and voluntary measures including early retirement, Audi said in a statement Tuesday after reaching an agreement with employee representatives. The approximately 50,000 remaining employees in Germany will have job guarantees through 2029, and Audi will create 2,000 new jobs to strengthen its engineering muscle for electric cars and digital offerings.

Solid State Battery Breakthrough Could Double the Density of Lithium-ion CellsPosted by msmash on Wednesday November 27, 2019 @01:45PM from the pushing-the-limits dept.Researchers at Australia's Deakin University say they've managed to use common industrial polymers to create solid electrolytes, opening the door to double-density solid state lithium batteries that won't explode or catch fire if they overheat. Tangential writes:CitarDr. Fangfang Chen and Dr. Xiaoen Wang from Deakin's Institute for Frontier Materials claim to have made a breakthrough with "the first clear and useful example of liquid-free and efficient transportation of lithium-ion in the scientific community." The new technology uses a solid polymer material, weakly bonded to the lithium-ion, to replace the volatile liquid solvents typically used as electrolytes in current battery cells. The liquid electrolyte is the part of the system that becomes flammable during the kinds of infamous battery fires Samsung would rather forget. "If industry implements our findings I see a future where battery reliant devices can be safely packed in airplane baggage, for example, or where electric cars don't pose a fire risk for occupants or emergency services like they currently do," Dr Chen said in a press release. In addition to making batteries safer, the team believes this solid polymer electrolyte will finally allow batteries to work with a lithium metal anode. That would be big news in the battery world, where the lithium anode has been recently described in Trends in Chemistry as "critical to break the energy-density bottleneck of current Li-ion chemistry" -- the bottleneck that's stopping electric vehicles, aircraft and portable electronics from developing at the pace they should be.

GM, LG Chem to create $2.3 billion battery cell venture for electric vehicles, to create 1,100 jobs in OhioPublished Thu, Dec 5 2019, 9:00 AMKey PointsGeneral Motors and LG Chem will invest up to $2.3 billion by 2023 to form a joint venture for production of battery cells for electric vehicles in Ohio.Construction of the plant is expected to begin in mid-2020.The facility, according to GM, is expected to create 1,100 new jobs for the area.[…]M CEO and Chairman Mary Barra said the new plant is “another important and significant step toward an all-electric future,” which includes at least 20 new all-electric vehicles globally by 2023.“The new facility will help us scale production and dramatically enhance EV profitability and affordability,” she said during a media event Thursday at the automaker’s battery lab in suburban Detroit.GM has said its next-generation EVs will be profitable after years of automakers losing money on current and earlier EVs.The plant, according to GM, is expected to drive cost per kilowatt-hours, a key metric for making electric vehicles more affordable, to “industry-leading levels.”The plant’s annual capacity is expected to be more than 30 gigawatt-hours “with flexibility for expansion,” according to GM. Tesla last year said its Gigafactory 1 battery plant with Panasonic in Nevada had reached an annualized rate of 20 GWh, making it “the highest-volume battery plant in the world.”The GM-LG Chem collaboration also includes a joint development agreement to develop and produce advanced battery technologies.[…]https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/05/gm-lg-to-form-2point3-billion-joint-venture-for-battery-cell-production.html
GM And LG Chem Plan $2.3 Billion Electric Battery Venture In OhioPosted by msmash on Friday December 06, 2019 @01:10PM from the quest-continues dept.General Motors and LG Chemical plan to make battery cells for electric-powered vehicles, unveiling a joint venture that they expect to create more than 1,100 jobs in northeast Ohio. The companies say they'll invest up to $2.3 billion in the venture. From a report:CitarThe project is centered around Lordstown, Ohio, where GM shuttered a plant last March that had produced the Chevrolet Cruze. The new plant in the Lordstown area will make battery cells for GM's upcoming all-electric vehicles, from a Cadillac sedan to a new electric truck that's slated for release in late 2021. GM recently sold its idled Cruze plant to a company called Lordstown Motors, which plans to produce electric pickup trucks at the facility, as member station WCBE reported. The new venture will pair GM's manufacturing know-how with LG Chem's battery-cell technology, says GM Chairman and CEO Mary Barra. Construction on the facility will begin in the summer of 2020, the companies say.

Will Plunging Battery Prices Start a Boom In Electric Power?Posted by EditorDavid on Saturday December 07, 2019 @07:34PM from the charges-for-charges dept.An anonymous reader quotes Utility Dive:CitarAverage market prices for battery packs have plunged from $1,100 per kilowatt hour in 2010 to $156 per kilowatt hour in 2019, an 87% fall in real terms, according to a report released Tuesday by Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF). Prices are projected to fall to around $100 per kilowatt hour by 2023, driving electrification across the global economy, according to BNEF's forecast. BNEF's latest forecast, from its 2019 Battery Price Survey, is an example of how advancements in battery technology have driven down costs at rates faster than previously predicted. Three years ago, when battery prices were around $300 per kilowatt hour, BNEF projected they would fall to $120 per kilowatt hour by 2030...The cost of lithium-ion batteries mandates the cost of electric vehicles for consumers and the ability of battery storage projects to compete in electricity markets. As they get cheaper, batteries will be used in more industry sectors. "For example, the electrification of commercial vehicles, like delivery vans, is becoming increasingly attractive," BNEF said.Earlier this year, Amazon placed an order for 100,000 all-electric delivery vans from Michigan-based start-up manufacturer Rivian. Just this week, Reuters reported that DHL will run pilot programs for its StreetScooter electric delivery vehicles in U.S. cities, starting in 2020.

Forget electric cars — e-bikes will be the top selling EV in the next decade130 million e-bikes are expected to be sold globally between 2020 and 2023The next decade is going to be defined by a revolution of battery-powered transportation, and the vehicle that will lead the charge won’t be the Tesla Model 3 or even the wildly polarizing Cybertruck. And it definitely won’t be an electric scooter.It will be an electric bike.
