I know I'm not allowed to call him a Nazi, but basically Elon Musk is a Boer who fled South Africa while the whites were still in charge and his entire family have various links to organisations that wave red flags with white circles and black crosses of various types.
However, they have never paid dividend to their shareholders and that is partly because the executives spend that money on huge bonuses for themselves instead. For that reason alone, I would never buy into the company.
Some investors are attracted to companies that offer quite volatile and sometimes very unpredictable share price highs and lows. Buy for $100 this month, sell for $150 next month. Tesla Motors fitted that characteristic through the 2010s, a bit similar to crypto.
So, they accept there's no dividend payouts (unless you're Elon or an executive) to the investors, believing they can profit of the volatility of the share prices instead, often in the short term.
Elon Musk's Brother Unloads Tesla Stock At A Key Juncture
Chief Executive Elon Musk's brother, Kimbal Musk, who is a Tesla board member, sold 27 million worth of Tesla stock on Thursday, according to regulatory filings. That comes as TSLA stock has retreated in recent days to a critical juncture.
Kimbal Musk sold 75,000 TSLA shares for an estimated $27.59 million on Feb. 6, according to SEC filings late on Thursday. This is the first time Kimbal Musk has sold in three months.
Well, he might be preparing to buy back in for less after his brother's shenanigans make the share price tumble. Apparently Trump would be about to slash a five-milliard-dollar subsidy for electric vehicles, but Musk's been YOLOing it for a long time.
Maybe he is just very aware of Tesla soon losing most of its worth. This can happen even instantly - eg if Trump decides to cancel credits for not using petrol etc in cars, which would prevent Tesla from selling its own credits to other (non-electric) companies.
Tesla is so massively overvalued compared to its assets and production capabilities, that it will go down - only question is when.
Or maybe it is just that bitcoin and related practices of only-speculation belong to one generation younger and onwards?
Only-speculation=>next to no care about actual value of the company as you are only trying to make an instant gain and sell.
Naturally there have been gamblers since forever, but perhaps the phenomenon in trading became a lot more common with bitcoin etc, bleeding into buying stock like Tesla etc.
ok so this sounded like another "elon buys something for way over price and plummets his wallet" to me, but looking up openai, apparently valued at 80 billion, so it's not an unreasonable markup
