Elon Musk: Force for anthropic advancement or self-serving con-artist?

The point is that when accounting for the stock splits, the random youtube video mentioned was accurate in its prediction. 15 shares of tesla is around $4000, even with the decline since the peak in December.

Get real. Tesla closed at $262 on Friday so 15 shares cost less than $4000. At its Jan 20 peak ($428) 15 shares cost $6420. At its 52 week high ($488) it cost $7320 for those same 15 shares.


Stock split history for Tesla (TSLA)​

Tesla stock (symbol: TSLA) underwent a total of 2 stock splits.
The most recent stock split occurred on August 25th, 2022.
One TSLA share bought prior to August 31st, 2020 would equal to 15 TSLA shares today.

Tesla stock sold for $147 per share at the end of Aug 2020, and since then it has gone up in value. If you bought it prior to then, you would still be making money. If you are still holding Tesla stock now, you have lost significant amounts of potential profits recently. Buy and hold investors can make a lot of money over time with good companies. How many shares do you own?

Musk owns about 410 million shares of Tesla. For every dollar change in the stock price his asset value goes up or down by $410 million. Tesla has lost $166 in share price since Jan 20. What is 410,000,000 x 166?

every penny he lost , he will get back and more .

and 262x15 making 3930 is around 4000 , validating whatever some guy said years ago . Musk is to get Boeing 19 cents on the dollar .
 
Tesla stock has split twice since then. One share in 2018 is equivalent to 15 shares today.

The investment manager in question, did not argue that stock splits would be a main driver of artificially increasing the stock and company value, though. ;)

She argued that Tesla was really a software company that would be catapulted upwards by self-driving tech and AI.

It's 2025 now and it looks like Tesla is a car company after all, elevated by hype.
 
From an article about the 2024 pay deal passed by Tesla shareholders: We do not know the price that Musk pays for his stock options, but they are deeply discounted.

How is Elon Musk's pay package structured?​

The pay deal is structured to deliver several rounds of stock options that will allow Musk to buy about 304 million shares of Tesla stock. Musk is able to receive each round of options after the company hits certain milestones — such as when Tesla reached a market value of $100 billion, and then at every $50 billion mark beyond that. (Currently, Tesla's market cap is about $580 billion.)

Based on today's stock price, the value of the pay package stands at about $46 billion.

The package also includes a requirement that Musk hold onto the shares for five years after he exercises the options, according to regulatory filings.
 
"Well, I am now the richest guy on Earth. What now? Hmmm... I know! Time to become most hated guy on Earth!"

Surreal.

@EvaDK now down 26% Down $32 and Musk is losing 32 x 410 million in value today.

26%? I've got a ~13% drop when I check the data atm - which in itself should be considered a minor collapse. :)

I wonder how exposed Musk is with regards to debt and loans; no doubt that the value of his stock, is his primary collateral against those loans.

Following market logic, someone should start buying up Tesla soon, as it represents an opportunity for some investors; high risk -> high profit.

Oops, yes atm it is down 13%
 
I've taken to reading stock reports while listening to Wreck of the Old 97 lately. :p
 
Tesla started the day at $262.67 and ended it at $222.15. That's a $40.52 loss (-15.43%).

Considering Elon Musk own 410.8 million shares, that means he lost $16.6 billion in only 6 hours and a half. That means $42 million per minute.
