Can't wait for 11am when we learn that Elon is a Proud Boy and he once banged 3 hookers while tweeting insults at short sellers, all from on top of a pile of coke and contractor liens

Maybe we'll get a live tweet of Musk in the passenger seat of a Model X driven by grimes being chased by dozens of police cruisers around LA while he holds one of his flamethrowers to his head

The thread on r/teslamotors on this (https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/comments/97yxca/elon_musk_confronts_a_fateful_tweet_and_an/) is actually pretty reasonable, but there are a few choice posts:

quote:

Elon - if you happen to read this - and I know you likely browse this subreddit on occasion during the rare times when you are not 100% busy...

Do not give up on your dream for a better future, but please find someone to delegate some of your responsibilities to. Retain control - because you are the right person to lead Tesla, but don't run yourself into the ground.

I don't know you personally, and we may never meet in person, but I believe in you, in what you are doing, and in what you are trying to accomplish.

Hold to your path, but don't walk it alone.

quote:

All his demons have KOCH BROTHERS stamped on their foreheads. It's not him, it's all of them. The constant pounding of bastards who want to slow down what has become a threat to their multi-trillion dollar waterfall. It's like being harrassed by Scientologists pamphleting your neighborhood, warning parents about you. When it goes private, he can finally get some poo poo done.

I'm mostly convinced too that that interview was designed to try to pull Musk/Tesla out of a PR tailspin, and it's had only the opposite effect because anyone with half a brain knows it reads like a full on disaster unfolding

Whoda thought that the rich-rear end motherfucker who hasn't ever had to face any actual adversity in his life would crumble completely once he had to deal with something that he couldn't just pay or bullshit himself through?

In the interview, Mr. Musk said he had not had taken time off of more than a week since 2001, when he was bedridden with malaria.

imagine being a billionaire who can literally do anything you want, and you do not take a vacation for 17 years. broken brain

CEOs just go to no work conferences and networking weekends in exotic locations instead of taking vacations so that they can do things like claim they never take vacations.

I had a few shares I bought a couple years back. Was increasingly skeptical of the current valuation, and sold what I had just after Q2 earnings report and the (completely irrational to my mind) spike in the stock price. 3 days later Elon pulled his 420 tweet.

I'm content with making a little off of this, and the schadenfreude of watching Musk commit public suicide is pretty choice without having any money riding on the outcome anymore, but more than anything this has just solidified that I should just be putting money into low cost index funds because holy gently caress is "the market" a fickle and unpredictable nutcase.

Stock valuations right now are generally loving insane, especially in the tech sector. A lot of it is inflated by stock buybacks and general ZIRP-y over-enthusiasm. Moviepass is a great example of just that.
