The poorly designed embarrassment on four wheels falls apart and sheds stainless panels. Now watch leon go after car regulators.
Yet Tesla stock went up. What stock goes up right after every single truck they’ve sold has to be recalled for safety issues?
Are Elon’s billionaire Russian Oligarchs and the Saudi Wealth fund buddies propping it up?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Were all propping it up. It's too big to fail.

TSLA is, essentially, a meme stock. It certainly doesn't trade on fundamentals or an expectation of future earnings. It's all hype and cult of personality with only slightly more substance than crypto relative to its valuation.
I disagree. It certainly does trade on the expectations of future earnings. What's debatable is how realistic those expectations are.
If Tesla solves the self-driving thing and
if they are successful in getting the Optimus robot to perform useful tasks, the expectations may be realistic. If not, Tesla is in for a crash - even without Elon Musk's rise to the status of one of the world's premier assholes.
This is the argument I have seen against the Tesla board outing Elon Musk. He is seen as the guy who brings the magic. There's still plenty of people who believe in him. Without him, Tesla is just another car company. An innovative one to be sure but with nowhere near the upside to justify the stock price. So the Tesla board doesn't want to risk it.
I think they're fucked either way. They can't continue to absorb the hits they're taking now and I don't see people stopping hating Elon Musk. The only thing I see saving them is if they finally solve full self-driving and do it very soon.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
