Not to mention... in the last year Tesla stock has lost over 50% of its value.

The real question is why is Elon trying to drive TSLA lower? He's smarter than you or me. I think he's playing games with the media similar to the Orange Guy. I suspect that he's trying to finish screwing short sellers. Like REALLY screw short sellers.

I'm buying as much as I can. The stock price doesn't concern me. The company is on sound financial footing, with great future growth prospects, and several potentially game changing technologies on the horizon. If any of those hail-mary projects bear fruit, it will generate one, maybe more, orders of magnitude growth in profits and revenue. I'm expecting Tesla to be profitable for the foreseeable future and growing significantly.

I fervently hope you are correct...

how do you know that?

I think driving the stock lower is helping the short sellers. That is exactly what they want.

I hope you're right. we sold some of our TESLA stock, but we still kept some. I really hope it goes back up.

I also really hope Elon is smarter than me and that he does not become bipolar or depressed or has some other mental issue. I really want him to stop fucking around and focus on Tesla, SpaceX, etc. Screw Twitter and the boring company.

He may be smarter than you and me, but he has also made the most expensive mistake in recorded history.

I'd much rather he spend time tinkering with The Boring Company and Neuralink than using Twitter as his "I'm bored" hobby project. And, honestly, I think the slowdowns of new products at both Tesla and SpaceX due to manufacturing realities (it takes time) has him BORED... so he sought something to do. I WISH he would have picked The Boring Co. or Neuralink!

I don't think so. It's only a mistake until everyone goes..."why didn't I think of that?"

The secret to financial success is to see the road to success while it's still a dirt path, not an 8-lane highway.
