You know that it split, right? It was only just a hair above $400 a single time.

EDIT: Downvote me all you want you fucking idiots. Tesla has only been a tiny bit above $400 in current post split pricing. Here is the 5 year chart. https://i.imgur.com/69VXiaj.png

You guys are actually fucking stupid. This is Tesla's 5 year stock price chart. It was only above $400 one time and very very briefly.

Again, that is $400 POST SPLIT PRICE How is this hard to understand? The person I replied to mentioned "still being down 50%" inferring he was talking about the current price.

This guy is actually the right one. Crazy how witarded this Reddit thread has. He’s getting downvoted by a lot of more people than I was expecting. and the witards still saying dum sheit. You can check it’s price, it’s adjusted to the stock split. So $400 was the peak ever adjusted for post split. Geezus Christ, the dumas who said $900, the witard who said “you belong here” and the down voters are all regards who actually truly “belong here”. Downvoting the only guy actually telling the truth. 🤣😂 geez this sub thread really attracts the regardest of them all

Any post mentioning Elon brings out the biggest morons to upvote any comment saying Elon Bad and downvote any comment that says anything else. It's absolutely mind numbing.

I don't think Twitter is making much money but seeing ads return definitely shows how much of a 15 min lifespan these false outrages carry. I'm beginning to think if you just hide out for a few days, the internet will move on to something else and forget trying to cancel you.

Here's a quote from Churchill about dictators that definitely applies in more situations than that of a dictator:

A modern dictator with the resources of science at his disposal can easily lead the public on day-to-day destroying all persistency of thought and aim so that memories blurred by the multiplicities of daily news and judgement are baffled by it's perversion.

I can think of quite a few people who must have taken that to heart.

Sometimes, it would be better if smart people didn’t utter their epiphanies - so as to not lead lesser men to act upon them.

KyivComrade t1_jaachk7 wrote

New advertisers take their place, though they'll pay less and that's what'll hurt Elons bottom line. He wants much money for ads but he only gets some mmolney so he's mad as usual...tweeting conspiracy nonsense

BenSemisch t1_jadvk9k wrote

The ads may be returning but are the users? A lot of top creators have left the platform because of Musk and with Musk's leadership leading to a more lax moderation style on political stuff I don't see the website improving for the average user who doesn't want to see political shit on their feed nonstop.

ChampionshipLow8541 t1_jac9u9m wrote

The debt hasn’t gone away. And Twitter is no way making enough money to break even from the losses it was already making before Musk and cover the additonal load of servicing the new debt.

Because the discount double the demand of the vehicle.. making up the small deficit in margin by increasing volume. Future profit motivates the market..FSD even with it's issues is still very good and will only get better..tons of people paid for it. Plus the Twitter thing has settled down, huge engagement on the platform means there is a high likelihood that it too will succeed. Is what it is. Dude knows how to make money regardless of the antics and the negative publicity.

That's very astute observation you made. How long did it take you to figure that out? Of course, this thread is about a person, it happens to be the same person. It says so right in the title.

dunkmaster6856 t1_jadazqo wrote

Its about his wealth size due to tesla, twitter is irrelevant to the conversation in the context you are trying to make

−2

BenSemisch t1_jadvzg1 wrote

Not really. His wealth is on paper. It's tied directly to the paper value of his Tesla stock. Ergo, you must also include the paper value of his debt in twitter.

It's not a hard concept.

dunkmaster6856 t1_jadwjhh wrote

And there you have it kiddo, his on paper wealth (from tesla) isnt used to pay twitter employees

So he's not personally invested in Twitter? He owns zero percent of that company? Do tell me more.

His stock holdings of either company has no bearing on compensation for workers of either company. Is this babies first business lesson?

Maxfunky t1_jaelrh2 wrote

Jesus Christ, you Dunning-Kruger poster child, how can you be simultaneously smug yet clueless? You're "correcting" me like I'm the one not talking about on-topic stuff when you're the one off-topic. Nobody gives a shit about employee compensation and nobody was talking about employee compensation.

We are talking about Elon Musk's personal wealth, and his large stakeholding in Twitter is directly relevant to that discussion.

You must be one of the Twitter employees he kept around, because you are definitely highly-regarded. Fucking Tesla bag holders getting all misty-eyed everytime the topic of Twitter comes up. Sorry that I struck a nerve by reminding you of what a dumbshit you were to invest in Tesla at the peak of the bubble.

Get a clue, youre the one who cant read and is off topic. Stay mad

Mad? I think your adorable. I mean, dumb as a box of bricks, but adorable. Basically, you're like a puppy that isn't house broken yet.

And I wasn't talking about fired Twitter employees. I was talking about a funny thing Elon Musk said. It just happened that he said it to Twitter employees (the ones who weren't fired, since you suck at reading comprehension). I'm sorry that the word "Twitter" triggers you cause you think that's the reason Tesla stock cratered. Stay butthurt about all that money you lost, lol.

You think or hope? No but if so is it because of the investor day? Because there’s also an excess in demand. If you want any context, there was a speel about Tesla this morning that’s quite rewarding.

What “she wrote” was that elon is back as the richest man on the planet because of a 100% rally. Which is correct.

Elon became the not so richest man on the planet due to the plummet. And then again became the richest man because of 100% rally. Both can be true.

loudnoisays t1_jaaxslf wrote

just goes to show how focused the investors and company employees are at maintaining their status quo regardless of how dangerous their "self driving" fire safe cars are and no matter how many people bring up the R E A L issues in the Congo with the Congolese Children working in the mines to ensure there's enough raw material for batteries in the first place.

When you have a company and industry literally making billions of dollars, putting a troll at the head of financial success/a literal man child that defends racists, bigots, sexists, nazis, white supremacists... Literally got a bunch of CHILDREN working in mines to make sure Tesla can meet the demand and keep up with their now global supply chains where the number 2 in charge is a Chinese workaholic right when Norinco and the Biden Administration are going into the Congo to figure out what exactly has been going on with all the deaths at the mines.

When you are the richest person in the world and you can turn a tragedy of your own making and design flaws into a selling point to get more government and investor support to try and solve a problem you as the richest person on the planet who is much more concerned about going to a different planet and wreaking havoc there, who has dozens of law suits and out of court settlements involving your own (Elon Musk) attacks and bullying people because you're the rich troll who can.

Tesla is nothing more than a Congolese Child labor making machine, killing kids trapping them underground with no future where they get electric vehicles and a green future. The Kids digging the raw materials for the last two decades dying to make sure Tesla batteries are on every road around the world where the people and governments paying for the supply chain are just ignoring the reality by staring at the multitude that is the cloud and ignore the dead kids that make the car go zoom zoom.

APPLE batteries are literally grains of rice compared to a TESLA battery so imagine how hard those kids must have to work to ensure your new electric car has the range to keep up with your James Bond Bruce Wayne Tom Brady wanna be life styles.

Get over yourselves all of you who keep buying Tesla and are convinced CATL and China will stop using child labor or the US will be able to do a damn thing about it anytime soon. Nope you would rather support an industry that doesn't have a real ability to say they HAVEN'T been using child labor so now, in 2023, after cobalt and lithium mining has been going on for decades to produce up to the demand that is ever sky rocketing, there is more talk about possibly using blockchain or providing more infrastructure to Congolese people suffering and working to death.

Amazing.

AllCommiesRFascists t1_jab2d6b wrote

You wasted your time writing this because Tesla is now using LFP batteries that don’t use Cobalt

Judging by your post history that almost exclusively advocates for Tesla’s supposed use of child slave cobalt miners, you should be loving Musk for publicly directing his engineers to develop LFP battery tech to eliminate the use of cobalt

You are talking about cobalt. But really you are talking about inequity. The powerless will be exploited in one industry or the next until we solve for inequity. 20yrs ago this was diamonds.

Solve for income inequality globally and voila. Fight for cobalt inequity and the problem just moves.
