Beat, Beat, UP!
Overall Thesis
SpaceX has achieved numerous significant milestones and announcements in recent weeks, yet the market has not responded positively, while Nvidia beat earnings expectations but experienced initial volatility.
Narratives
Randy noted Nvidia beat both top and bottom line estimates but the stock reaction was volatile, selling off, recovering, then dipping again intraday. He did not offer a specific price target or directional forecast, simply narrating the price action around the earnings report.
Key Arguments
- Nvidia beat top line and bottom line handily
- Stock initially sold off, then recovered, then zigzagged lower again after hours
Randy highlighted that the Tesla Model Y remains the world's best-selling car of 2026 so far, with sales up 19.6% year-to-date and outselling the Toyota Corolla and RAV4. He framed this as continued strong demand for Tesla's core vehicle lineup, though he did not give a specific stock price prediction for Tesla in this segment.
Key Arguments
- Model Y is the world's best-selling car of 2026 through July, with sales up 19.6% year over year
- Model Y outsold the Toyota Corolla and leads the RAV4 by nearly 200,000 units
- Tesla is beating every gas and hybrid car on Earth in sales
