is there any info on how rich he actually is without the inflated stock? he was definitely poormouthing about having sold everything to shore up Tesla real hard when he dumped wife #1 so the Cali courts would let his shady prenup stand and not subject him to the full weight of Community Property.

grimes & musk got married and the Tesla share price went up to $500 per in a single day and Trump just announced that the US government is investing directly in Tesla to make battery-powered tanks

OTOH, if there's a super-rich rear end in a top hat dumb enough to actually go broke under late-stage capitalism it'd be Elon Musk.

ya this will def be the narrative.

whatever happens, it was her fault & musky either saved his rear end by dumping her or goes down because of her meddling.

idgaf about her but it'll be some gross misogyny no doubt.

Oh gently caress the SEC actually did it, but after the crash: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2008/09/get_shorty.html

Wall street cocksuckers lining their pockets off of falsified subprime mortgage applications was A-OK, but profiting off of the implosion of Lehman and shorting goldman/morgan/etc upon realizing they're also over-leveraged and teetering on the edge is a bridge too far, man. By denying that bloodbath, the SEC guaranteed an extended depression.

This was my 'holy poo poo, the entire system is rigged' moment in Econ undergrad.

thanks

quote:

Critics contend short selling can artificially depress stock prices. If the Sharks think a stock’s price is going to go down, they will short it. By shorting it, they do in fact cause the price to go down. Since that price has dropped, more Sharks are encouraged to short the stock, causing the price to drop even more. This cycle can continue until a company actually does run into financial troubles because the price of its stock has dropped so much … which just encourages Sharks to short even more.

this guy obviously doesn't really seem to agree with the measure, but has there been any actual studies/analysis on the effect of short selling, to a certain degree, on a stock? seems interesting from a sociological standpoint, but i have a feeling, as it was mentioned in that article and in here, that there are never really enough short sellers to truly affect the price without a ton of bad poo poo already going on
