Electric Vehicle Battery Grants, 3 Years Of Disappointment And Failure [View article]
I stand partially corrected. Rerouting traffic to a stock for which you paid too much (like Kevin Quon and SZYM). I'm sorry you think I'm being malicious. I think you're being intellectually dishonest, and you have clear incentives to do so. Not to single you out; virtually everyone in finance has conflicts of interest.
Not intended as an ad hominem, just a hypothesis to explain your negative TSLA PR campaign. My theory will be tested over time -- today's readers can decide for themselves.
This exchange with Alex is a classic example of John changing the subject and resorting to ad hominems when his scientific arguments are directly challenged in the comments section.
Despite this well-established pattern behavior of inaccurate articles and evasive comments by John, Seeking Alpha continues to praise his dissenting opinion. This is media-incentive-driven opportunism on SA's part and should be received critically by readers--do your own research before trusting SA and John on this topic. The factual evidence shows that Tesla stock has outperformed Axion by over 100% since IPO, and there is no indication of this trend reversing, except Mr. Petersen's intellectually bankrupt promotional claims.

I've consumed all your articles on Seeking Alpha and some content elsewhere. You pick and choose among studies to reach a conclusion about the environmental economics of electric batteries, and reroute investor traffic to the company which paid you in shares.
Adam, I think commenters develop their feel for acceptable comments based on the language they see around them. Here are some of the word choices from Mr. Petersen in this article's comments. Many of these are thrown around gratuitously in context:
"mental masturbation" "hopium addled dreamers" "cult members" "circular and adolescent" "mathematically challenged" "you don't understand these basic financial concepts" "thinks his opinions are so important" "your youth and inexperience" "you should include a little science in your curriculum"
and my favorite: "Any rational investor would conclude that Axion is undervalued"
so anyone who disagrees with Petersen is an irrational, masturbatory, delusional, adolescent, innumerate, financially illiterate, scientifically illiterate cult member. except for the mysterious counterexample whom petersen debates respectfully, who never seems to show up in the comments of these articles.
Here's why Surface matters. It is one of several recent indications that Microsoft can't innovate coherently. Of course there were indications less recently, but hope springs eternal.

it is a contrarian indicator when an article does not discuss the actual forward-looking business model of a stock, and it is also telling that the article selects an arbitrary historical sample going back a few years despite the cyclical nature of the company. further, there is absolutely no sufficiently sampled backtest (ie. similar stocks) of how this strategy works in any relevant statistical context.
this is psuedo-statistics at its most pretentious and trivial.
Short TSLA long AXPW has been the "John Petersen" pairs trade for a couple years already. The market is more confused on this relationship than any other in history, apparently. Thank goodness we have a lawyer who can explain physics to the market.
