      Pretty sure that and the White House advert halted the dip the last few days.
      Except fElon hasn’t changed, so down it goes!

    At the end of the day, there are actually better electric cars now for the price. Even starlink is starting to get major market competition for cheaper.

        Everyone and their dog wants to gunk up LEO with their soon-to-end-space-flight-forever space junk

    That’s illegal! TSLA is not allowed to drop. Prepare for your mandatory stock purchase, citizen.

      You jest, but I would seriously consider the possibility that he’ll sue anyone selling the stock, and sue the government for not investing in it expressly.

      I mean, god, the tantrums he’s thrown at having advertisers take breaks—because I don’t think any of them truly left—from Twitter should be proof enough of the possibility.

    I wonder if Elon is probably going to bail on Tesla after he gets all his SpaceX stock hooked into government contracts and stuff.

    Disclaimer: I’m stock illiterate. Are his other companies also trending down? Or are they not publicly traded or whatever? Is it known what % of his wealth comes from Tesla (vs Starlink or SpaceX)?

      Most of his other companies are not publicly traded, so there isn’t much direct comparison. But Tesla has widely been known to be hugely over-inflated for years and years now, the bubble had to burst sooner or later. It is definitely being hit harder than the rest.

      You jest, but futures can actually go negative. At one point during covid a tanker shortage meant you could be paid a few $100 to accept delivery of a barrel of crude. Some people were joking about filling their swimming pools.
