Not a Dickman, just a shape

This poo poo is like if Elon made a dinky little single engine plane , marketed it as some transcendent innovation, had someone point out

"Hey Elon, your plane is maybe a bit small and dink to really be used for anything other than light cargo and training"

And Elon responds saying

"Well maybe you should read your flight text books because lift is generated by a differential in airspeed over the wing"

Like all he is doing in defense is describing the mechanics he isn't grasping , this level of ignorance is wild

How many shares of Tesla does Elon own? I wanna know how much of his networth just went poof today.
As far as I can tell, right now Musk owns about 425 million of the 3.16 billion outstanding shares of Tesla.
TSLA closed yesterday at 149.87.
It closed today at 137.80.

Hmm yes, the Dow is up today, NASDAQ is mostly flat (but up a little). Tesla is down over 8%. Flawless logic there, Musk.

All random. There was a lot of effort put into keeping it above 140 though.

Unless they have a copy of the loan contract in front of them it's a wild rear end guess. Also have to remember that Tesla stock is up hugely still because of all the various splits so if he's leveraged pre-splits then he's still quite healthily in the green.

The morning after he banned Kanye he unbanned the founder of the Daily Stormer. The whole point of banning Kanye was he was high profile and made fun of Musk and people would talk about that while he unbanned a bunch of other nazis.

It's a lie because Tesla is falling way harder than everything else, the S&P500 is actually up 4 today.

At the same time a lot of people are expecting a crash sometime in the near future so it's reasonable that they might put more money in other places, not because they expect the same return in a savings account. But that's not why Tesla is falling

Lookit that stupid ass-hole!

I'm trying to understand this article. So, the "suspect" in the article is a member of Musk's security team, who followed the "stalker" into a parking lot, then hit the "stalker" with their car? Then the "stalker" filed a police report and also told the Washington Post that Grimes was sending him secret messages?

It kind of seems like the guy was stalking Grimes and a member of Musk's security team confronted him about it and then tried to block him from leaving with their car. Not sure how this reflects on Elon.
