Classic Elon. He's telling it like it is.

and no chance that’s he’s hacked. I’m sure his account is so secure given all the crypto scammers. Imagine having calls today and he tweets that.

Someone explain what's his incentive to do this when he's getting a bunch of options soon.

Maybe an investor friend of his wants to buy more stock?

Don't need an option to buy @350 when the stock is at @350

Is that not a violation of his SEC agreement?

He did say imo so it was just his opinion and not absolute metaphysical certitude.

Musk is a loser. Losers self sabotage, especially when you give them drugs + bad news or constrain them in some way they feel is unfair - or even worse when they feel they deserve it. They lash out in a self sabotaging way.

I missed the tweets and the crash by 20 minutes because I was making some food. 100 bagger on the puts. Hope some here printed, close to free money.

I guess wanting to give away all your material possessions is a classic psychedelic trip...

If his goal was to buy up shares under 700 then its a king dick maneuver.

Did he just screw himself on the 100B 6 month valuation?

Tesla price too high vs funding secured.

Greatest tweets ever by a CEO.

Are the tweets really that dumb? If you were Elon and expecting TSLA stock to fall anyways, why not put some crazy tweets out there so people attribute the drop to the tweets rather than some fundamentals?

Now it becomes murky how much of the drop was due to tweets and how much it would have dropped had tweets not happened. Die hard fanboys less likely to sell, attributing drop to "elon being elon".

Seems like a stroke of genius.

OK what timeline is this...I can't believe musk is tweeting stuff I agree with

1. tsla stock overpriced (I'm kind of at a loss to think of another CEO that has purposely destroyed shareholder value like this LMAO).
2. free america
3. calling silicon valley "sanctimonious valley"
4. tweeting out the lyrics to the star spangled banner
