Especially as i own SYR just up 31% today after signing contract with TeslaPerson of the Year
The Babylon Bee interviews Elon. Non satirical btw, just a sit down and discussing things. Pretty interesting.
Yes it somehow changed my view, and i have followed him for a while, read the biography,etc but i learnt much watching that videoI watched the whole hour and a half. He made many points, most of them pertinent and deeply thought through. An interesting forum to talk on, and the BB guys are getting a lot of publicity. I am trying to get my son to take in the whole podcast; he is stuck in the "cult of Elon" thing, which I can accept as being valid but not the full bloke.
Lithium may not be the (full) answer but the described pathway involved batteries. Somewhere, somehow.
Well... didn't he prove you wrong.As in a mythical creature from the past?
Or as in turns water into wine?
I certainly think he is a false messiah, sooner or later the market will realise there is very little substance to the hype. Tesla is basically dead in the water, its not a car manufacturer by any meaningful definition.
I need to make a correction to the above.Elon Musk seems to get away with a few things that mere mortals do not.
The SEC hit him with a damp lettuce over tweets regarding taking Tesla private, then did nothing when he ignored the requirements of said lettuce slapping.
From Zero Hedge
Just recently, he tweeted to his many followers asking them if they thought it would be a good idea to buy into Twitter.
Gave the twitter price a shakeup for which he might have been asked a few questions by the SEC.
Then he goes and buys a 14.9% stake in Twitter.
This sent the Twitter employees who actually run the company into a Frenzy, as some of his views are considered "extreme".
The Board of Twitter offered him a seat on the board, given his holdings, which he seemed to think was a good idea.
He has now decided against taking up the board offer.
Perhaps one of the reasons for his decision not to take it up, is that by law, a member of a US company board cannot own more than 15% of a company on which they sit.
So by declining, he is now free to go beyond his initial stake.
This could get interesting.
