Shares of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) are down more than 2% in pre-market Tuesday trading after Reuters reported that the electric vehicle (EV) maker plans to extend its light production schedule at its Shanghai plant in January.

The Shanghai plant will run production from January 3 to January 19 and then stop producing EV units from January 20 to January 31 for an extended break for the Chinese New Year. The period between January 21 and January 27 is a public holiday in China.

Reuters also reported a few days ago that Tesla halted production at its Shanghai plant heading into the last week of December, starting from Saturday, December 24. This factory accounted for more than half of Tesla’s output in the first three quarters of 2022.

In the meantime, China continues to battle a massive COVID-19 outbreak. Media reported over the weekend that Zhejiang, a huge industrial province near Shanghai, is experiencing a million new daily infections, a number that could double in the coming days.

Tesla shares closed at $123.15, down 65% year-to-date.

So what is your point? He bought Twitter and is going to fix it...said he needed some dry powder to cover the bases during the expected recessionary period. Just like you and I.. hopefully we have emergency cash available.

Tesla is far from “tanking”. It has billions in cash, zero debt and 2 more gigafactories ramping up production. It is as close to recession proof as a company can get. A two week slowdown at one of 4 factories is hardly cause for a panic.

Erski Gumby he is such a genius that he exposed his extreme right wing politics via his Twitter shenanigans and pissed off all the left leaning consumers who were most likely to purchase Teslas.  Both Tesla and Twitter are in deep doo doo.

Karl Maerz  It was also priced at hitting 50% growth EVERY year between now and 2030 - something it will NOT get when in a recession (Musk even saying as much as he sold more shares). Musk likes shouting about how huge waiting lists for Tesla are (Just like how he says huge user numbers on Twitter since he took over). You do not start closing plants and offering large discounts if you have years of waiting lists. Is Tesla a good long term buy? Yes..but fair 'recession' value is still about $60
