Why, but look for deliveries, I guess starting as soon as September is what we’re looking for.

So you know why the stock is down?

I don’t know, we don’t know, we can’t figure it out.

You know, I I did put in some emails to some analysts to try and figure out many of them who covered the stock are based um in, in Asia and East Asia.

So we didn’t get any answers to what is going on here.

If you look at how this thing is gonna be priced, the L 61 it’s cheaper than the model Y in China.

So what about margins?
