Tesla fans line up to get into the long-awaited Tesla Diner in Hollywood

Tesla fans line up to get into the long-awaited Tesla Diner in Hollywood

Miami Herald6 days ago
A long line of people gathered near Elon Musk's futuristic Tesla Diner in Hollywood on Monday after he suggested it was about to open to the public.
The diner, which Musk has been planning since 2018, is set to have lots of superchargers for electric vehicles and two drive-in movie screens. The saucer-shaped structure blends a retro American diner aesthetic with high-tech elements and Tesla-branded food containers.
Despite claims circulating on Musk's social media site X that the diner would open on Monday, eager customers were not being let in as of Monday afternoon. Other social media posts said the restaurant would open at 4:20 p.m. Monday.
The diner, at 7001 Santa Monica Blvd., held a soft opening over the weekend for first responders and members of the Southern California Tesla Club. Videos and photos posted by people who attended showed servers on roller skates and the humanoid robot dubbed Optimus scooping popcorn.
"If our retro-futuristic diner turns out well, which I think it will, Tesla will establish these in major cities around the world," Musk wrote on X early Monday.
A security guard stationed outside the diner Monday said he had received no instructions to open the doors to the public. The restaurant is surrounded by a closed fence. However, many of the people waiting in line were convinced that Monday was opening day.
Miguel and Dawn Colayco took a train and multiple buses to reach the diner from their home in Arcadia on Monday morning. The couple said that they saw multiple sources online confirming the diner's opening date.
"We're huge Elon fans," Dawn said while waiting in line. "We agree with a lot of things he does and says."
Miguel said they would wait in line for an hour before giving up.

Tesla, Inc. (TSLA)'s 'A Cult Stock,' Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) continues to face a horrible time on the stock market in 2025. The firm's shares have lost 16.7% year-to-date and fell by 8.2% after its latest earnings report, which missed analyst revenue and earnings estimates. The results were so bad that even Cramer, who believes that Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA)'s potential is in emerging technologies such as robotics, was forced to do somewhat of a turnaround: '[on revenue, vehicle sold, carbon credit all down] Okay, so you listen to the conference call, and they made it so that those don't matter. All that matters is self drive, autonomous. I'm not kidding. Robotaxi, uh, Austin, California. And then there's some lines, which says, where he's saying, and David you'll get a kick out of this I'm sure, he's talking about like in a few years like everyone's gonna be in this. The robotaxi's like going great. I mean, it's not doing anything. This was a call that was a fatuous call. David, I left out Turkey, number one. Netherlands and Austria. I knew that Austrian market, that was it. 'It's a cult stock. . . This was not the kind of conference call that I expected. I did not expect an immediate pivot to robots and the self driving and the robotaxi.

Toyota's Internal Inertia Stifles Digital Transformation Effort

Inside Toyota Motor Corp., a group of employees are worried about the company's future in an era when a car's software matters just as much as its sheet metal. The world's biggest automaker is known for churning out reliable cars like clockwork, but it's been struggling to keep up with Elon Musk's Tesla Inc., China's BYD Co. and other frontrunners in the industry's shift toward electric vehicles with sophisticated software.

Not Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMT) But RTX, Say A Lot Of People According To Jim Cramer

We recently published . Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) is a key American defense contractor when it comes to the aerospace industry. Its fighter aircraft form the backbone of US air superiority. The shares have lost 11.9% year-to-date on the back of a major 10.8% dip in July after its Q2 profit dipped by a whopping 80% on the back of a classified $1.6 billion loss on a classified aeronautics project. Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT)'s Q2 revenue of $18.16 billion also missed analyst estimates of $18.57 billion. No wonder Cramer made the following remarks about the firm: 'RTX, by the way, pushed by a number of people, saying that's the defense stock you want to be in, not Lockheed Martin.' Source: Pexels Previously, Cramer had advised viewers to stay long on Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT): 'I like Lockheed Martin too much to tell you to do that. Every time I see Jim Taiclet, I say to myself, why does anyone want to sell that stock with a 3% yield and a great book of business and a terrific CEO? No, you stay long, Lockheed Martin.'
