Model X looks too cheap. They’re facing production and quality issues.
Elan Musk is getting more and more arrogant.
time to short the stock?
Well, I don’t really follow this guy. But my uninformed view is that he is just another fake “wonderboy”. One of these people that Americans love to build up, for their “disrupting”, or “genius”, or whatever. He doesn’t actually seem to know what he is doing, from what I can tell. Steve Jobs was the real deal, now we’ve just got these Tesla / Twitter fools.
There’s also the matter of his face. His eyes are too buggy, and his cheeks are either too high or low, can’t tell what…but something is definitely wrong with his face.
^Hair transplant
^ Really?
Also, his name sounds made up. The combination of that face, and name, and lack of results…
Rest in peace, investment analysis.
Musk is one of those guys that hit it big once, and now everyone thinks he is invincible despite a pretty terrible track record post-Paypal. Since then, he’s pretty much been a ward of state subsidies. I’d never buy Tesla, but shorting it could be a long long trade.
You’re clearly a jerk.
Analyst, my big toe!
You’re just mad that Canada will be unemployed if he has his way.
They should fire all the mods, except Bchad. I know zero sites where mods behave this way, trolling forum members.
Musk reminds me of that character in the 007 movie that I can’t remember the name of that looked creepy and didn’t need sleep. Also kind of like the bad guy in Casino Royale. So basically he reminds me of creepy Bond villains.
I can’t see how either of his businesses don’t survive without government subsidies and largesse. Why should an $80k luxury car that just happens to be electric get a $7,500 tax credit? Give me a break.
His cars are good for the environment and should be subsidized, ideally by taxing oil and gas.
Putting aside the fact that his cars are charged through the power grid, which you may have forgotten, power is often produced by burning coal and natural gas, if you have the means to afford an $80-100k luxury car, it shouldn’t be subsidized. If I were to go buy a $80k electric sports boat, should that be subsidized because I’m not buying a gasoline powered boat?
Oftentimes but not all the time. Plus power sources are getting cleaner every year and coal is dying. Second question - absolutely.
Trolling?
You’re acting like a jerk. I’m sorry that it bothers you when someone has the temerity to say so.
What’s my being a mod have to do with anything?
(I do admit that I used my powers as a moderator to edit one of your posts: apparently you think that “alot” is one word.)
Usually mods just shut up and let forum members discuss topics in peace.
So you think that mods should give up their rights and privileges of also being members?
That’s just stupid.
^ Trolling away as usual.
I guess that’s easier for you than to admit that you’re wrong.
How sad for you.
I regret that a thread discussing Elon Musk’s receding hairline has descended into this personal duel.
On reflection, so do I. I apologize for the derailment.
(Was it really ever simply about his hairline, though?)
