		refulgentis on March 15, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Tesla to raise $1B "Elon said..." has started enough apologies for Tesla's poor judgement that I've become numb to it. They're all of the form "while it may look like we're weak, actually...(poorly reasoned explanation for the weakness)", and it has been going on for years. I hope they figure out car production by 2019.

I am refuting the suggestion that Tesla wasn't planning a raise. Elon told investors in an investor call that they would likely do a raise.

Regardless of what you think of their judgement, they didn't deny raising capital, which is what your parent comment was saying.
