An electric car company who’s sucking right wing dick and pissing off liberals isn’t breaking records?!
BUT REPUBLICANS LOVE GREEN ENERGY
yeah, honestly, if you zoom out summary level, the whole thing is so confusing.
I’ll admit I wasn’t paying attention, so high-level he seemed like a Tony Stark, liberal darling: investing in space, internet access, electric cars, and solar. I mean, the dude was set to be a left-wing mascot. Boy was I an idiot. But I admit I wasn’t paying close attention to any early flags.
Honestly, same. I liked him up till he called that dude a pedo for saving those kids before he could. He seemed cool up till then for the most part then holy shit did he nosedive.
Literally all he had to do was to shut the fuck up and let his companies make infinite money for him. But no, he’s got to have his own personal face in the news. Now here we are, Musk is one of the most hated people on the planet and every single one of his businesses are tanking into the lithosphere.
It would be a lesson on hubris if he was capable of self reflection.
Yeah, apparantly there was shit before the pedo thing but it wasn’t super widely known? To me, and many like me, he was just this shitposter running companies that seemed like they might really do cool shit like self driving cars and taking us to mars.
It’s not prostitution if you pay in horses. Then it’s patriarchy.
I’m a white male and was never given a horse :(
Have you tried being whiter or maler?
SpaceX is tanking? Big news. Tesla is still the most valuable automaker, so it has a ways to go.
I hate him too, but let’s not live in fantasy.
He was on track for that for sure. But he had two crippling flaws: anti union, and ego obsessed jackass.
The first is obvious how it went down. We like unions, he’s deep in the Californian ideology that caused conflict and he rejected the left aspects of that ideology because of what appears to be a lack of emotional regulation. And that’s where the second comes into play here. It’s also partly because the left is vicious. We kill our heroes to an unhealthy degree.
This really isn’t surprising. Their market cap was larger than the whole of the rest of the auto industry combined. Had to come back to earth eventually.
I wanted to short it because it was obviously overvalued but I was absolutely not confident it would come down because I will always believe there are greater fools among the Tesla shareholders.
Remember: the market can remain illogical a hell of a lot longer than you can remain solvent.
Something about how the market can stay irrational longer than you can remain solvent…
Michael Burry, who shorted the housing market in 2008 and made big upfront payments for that bet also shorted Tesla in the last couple years, but bailed because it was too risky for him.
Hmmm looks like all the Tesla speculators jumped on the Nvidia train. Always the danger of gambling on these tech hype stocks.
The original memestock.
“Worst performing stock this year”
It’s february. I think whoever wrote that article has an agenda.
Well, it’s a bit surprising that Tesla is the worst-performing stock so far. I mean, the Boeing scandal was a disaster image-wise, and others are struggling real hard. But even with all that, Tesla is performing worse than the airplane manufacturer, who can’t build secure and quality-controlled aircraft. The tide is turning for Tesla. Competition is getting stronger and starting to roll out strategies like the BMW 50% 2025 Plan, which means Tesla as an electric automobile manufacturer has dire times ahead if they don’t start fixing things.
Tesla long stopped delivering on promises they, or rather Musk, made. They need something other than words and visions to sell, and fast, otherwise, the stock is going to normalize more and more, to a degree a mid-sized automobile manufacturer would be, as the shareholders slowly start losing faith and jumping ship, as long as the stock is overvalued and there are buyers.
People shouldn’t throw their Teslas in the water, whatever the way the stock performs.
Right, you’re only supposed to throw car batteries in the ocean, throwing the whole car in is just littering.
How else are we going to electrify the eels?
(Nelson voice) “ha ha!”
You love to see it
They’ve got one of the highest P/E ratios on the S&P. Pretty much the definition of overvalued.
But the short-sellers have been burned so many times, its stayed inflated long past its peers throughout the rest of the tech sector.
