Wednesday close 📊
$TSLA $390.84, +2.9%. Up nearly 14% off last Thursday's $343 flush and now positive on the week.
$SPCX $139.75, -2.3%. Gave back some of the bounce but still +2.8% over 5 days.
$BTC ~$74.6K, +1.2%. Grinding higher today, still down about 1.7% on the week.
Tesla ripping while SpaceX cools: rotation within the Musk trade, or just noise? Which one are you adding here?

Duke Energy Florida pays EV owners a $7.50 monthly bill credit to charge at home off-peak.
The rate sheet's fine print is more forgiving than most people assume.
• Off-peak: 10 AM–6 PM and 11 PM–5 AM weekdays, plus all day on weekends and holidays
• Slip up and charge during peak hours? You still get the credit, up to 2 times per bill. Quick top-offs (under 15 min or under 3 kW) don't count against you
• Need a Level 2 charger at home, program enrollment, and no time-of-use rate
• Up to 2 EVs per account; $1.5M in credits paid since the 2022 launch
Florida EV owners: scheduled charging, or plug in the minute you get home?

Market close, Tue 11/10: - BTC still sideways
$TSLA $379.78 (+0.46%). Quiet green day, but it has clawed back ~10% from last Thursday's $343.69 flush.
$SPCX $143.09 (+0.72%). Third straight up day, +15.7% off the Nov 5 low.
$BTC ~$73.9K (-1.8%). The odd one out, down ~8% from last Tuesday's $80.4K.
Stocks bouncing while Bitcoin bleeds. Is crypto decoupling from risk-on, or is BTC the early warning?

Powerwall 3 in Florida isn't mainly a bill-savings gadget. It's a storm-season product.
Here's what Tesla's spec sheet and Florida's net metering rule actually say.
• 13.5 kWh per unit, up to 11.5 kW continuous, and it can start loads rated up to 185 LRA (think AC compressors)
• Built-in solar inverter: 6 MPPTs, up to 20 kW DC of solar
• Storm Watch charges it to full on a hurricane or tropical storm watch/warning, plus severe thunderstorm, tornado and flood warnings (Grid Charging must be on)
• Datasheet footnote: performance may be de-rated above 104°F
• PSC Rule 25-6.065: excess solar credits roll forward up to 12 months; unused credits are paid out at an average as-available rate
Florida solar + battery owners: think of buying it for the bill or for storm season?
