Musk is more like Bruce Banner than Tony Stark. he’s weird and nerdy half the time and then just rages and destroys stock value when hitting green

But Bruce Banner is an actual scientist and presumably smart in the context of those comics/movies.

He's more like Hammer - generally incompetent, stole all the credit for his big products which don't actually work, and obsessed with being considered #2 when compared to a bigger tech rear end in a top hat.

could be an overly simple pairs trade

if he thinks, say, GM will outperform the market, but has no underlying bullish or bearish view on the market itself, he could buy GM and sell some ratio of SPY. that way no matter what happens with the broader market, if he’s right about GM, he makes money

or he could just be a fuckin’ dumbass, that happens a lot

“So it’s a given that we’re clearly on a trajectory to have games that are indistinguishable from reality, and those games could be played on any set-top box or a PC and there would probably be billions of such computers and set-top boxes, it would seem to follow that the odds that we’re in base reality is one in billions"

i did one of these in an econ class. it was when progressive insurance was getting big/popular up in the early 00s and my team was like "well we know buying just one company is dumb but we also don't know what we're doing so". and same thing, we sold everything to buy more PGR and beat the whole class

it also taught us about stock splits. we log in and oh poo poo the price is half what it was yesterday, we're screwed! wait... somehow we have twice as many shares??
The only way to win any time-constrained competition like this is to take on massive risk and be lucky enough not to bust.

Some blog a few days ago posted (and everyone kept reposting on and on and on again) how a crash is imminent because "the trendline angles between two last peaks perfectly match the angle of trendline angles of the last two crashes and the RSI is exactly the same too, therefore it MUST crash". Chartboys, man...
