One thing that must be made clear to casual observers is that the Tesla stock price is still batshit crazy high.

The logic to support the price is:

Your are not buying the current company, you are buying the cool stuff Elon is making in the future.

Without that leap of faith, the price has to collapse. There is no way an electric car company will ever support even the current stock price.

There will be a tremendous amount of copium ingested before gravity hits, but the bigger fool theory will have its way.

You can't un-ring being a Nazi and I won't be buying another Tesla with or without a Nazi at the helm because we all know even if he 'steps down' his fortune will still be tied to his stock ownership.

Nazi Around, Find Out

Has he tried stop being a cunt?

We hadn't heard much from him over the past few weeks, and now we get this earnings call, and it is far worse than expected. He's known this was coming, and has been laying low, probably hoping things will improve some before making what he knows would be a disastrous earnings call. Its the equivalent of watching your diet 3 days before a doctor's appointment, hoping your weight gain and cholesterol increase won't be as bad as you know it is.

Also, it's a safe bet that his board of directors is livid, and that he has been ordered by his board to get back to work, or be removed as CEO of Tesla.

There is almost certainly a shareholder class-action suit brewing over his reckless and irresponsible behavior over the last several months, which has directly caused severe, and probably irreparable damage to the company's brand image AND it's sales around the world, as well as tanking the stock price, an unforgiveable sin in the investing world. Now that the bubble has popped, it will never inflate again. As future earnings reports are released, and sales continue to slide, the stock will continue to decline, and the cycle will continue until bankruptcy. And it is all traceable to Skum's self-indulgent, egotistical behavior.

The only question is will Skum be the only defendant, or will the lawsuit also name the individual members of the board, for not reigning him in, or firing him. They don't want to be sued alongside him, so they are forcing him to get back to work saving Tesla, thus letting them off the hook for legal liability.

Its doubtful Skum will be able to save Tesla at this point, its almost certainly too late. It is also probably too late to avoid a shareholder lawsuit. Investors have lost millions of dollars, not due to the vagaries of the market, but due to Skum's outrageous behavior, like throwing up celebratory Nazi salutes on national TV, which, as CEO, he should have realized would damage his company and its investors significantly.

And arguing that he didn't recognize the danger in advance is no excuse at all for a CEO, who should have been able to predict the response to his self-indulgent ego bender.

Shareholders have lost many millions, and they won't just let that go with an "Oh well." He's likely going to get sued, and the board is just making sure they don't go down with him.

I give Tesla two years before they file for bankruptcy, and I'm only giving it that long because HitlerPig will give him a bail out that will buy him a little time.

Tesla cannot be saved until and unless Musk sells his share of the company and completely divorces himself from it. Even that may not be enough, as the brand is so closely associated with Musk that his stain may not wash off, but it's their only chance.

Elon Musk vowed to refocus on Tesla

issue is - he should have done that 2-3 years ago. now its too late
Due to sheer china cars velocity - he cant catch up.

things really went to shit when he mimicked hitler. maybe in order to reverse it he needs to mimick hitler again. now what did he do to get out of the mess he created for himself?

Has he considered resigning?

Tesla doesn’t need him to refocus, the damage is done. He fucked it all up trying to impress everyone at 4 chan with his nazi salutes, deal with it chainsaw performance, firing thousands of people nonchalant, etc.

As long as he’s tied to the brand in any way it’s cooked.

There are other, indirect ways to hurt Tesla.

For example, when I call a cab, I tell the dispatcher I don't want to ride in a Tesla taxi. And one dispatcher a few weeks ago told me I wasn't the only one requesting that.

Ketamine does cause brain rot

xAI will bail tesla out.

Here's a plan : leave the engineers do their work, stop interfering with innovation, and just shut the fuck up. Not sure it would save tesla, but it would get a fighting chance.

Even if one of his ideas were to apologize for the nazi salute I think the "saving Tesla" ship has sailed.

Step down from Doge, open the files and lay bare this administration.

Offer to buyback every single Cybertruck.

Appoint a board of directors elected by Tesla employees, with representatives from each department to manage the long term goals and policy of Tesla.

Make a low cost, highly configurable electric car. Essentially an electric 90's Civic.

Or better yet. Pay me 500 million a year and I'll do all of this for you.

All he had to do was shut his fucking mouth. Tesla sells a competitively-price product and has a strong moat with their charging network. He is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, all because he doesn't know how to STFU.

Sorry bud, EVs were championed by reasonable people with stable government jobs. You fired them yourself congratulations you are your own worst enemy.

Goodbye, Tesla, and good riddance. Some salutes will never be forgotten.

Become a Nazi lose your company. You have been warned.

Elon was never the guy who made Tesla work. He's just a rich guy who bought it and then had to be insulated from running it because his ideas suck.

one thing to consider is that tesla does not make its money by selling cars, but by selling carbon credits to other companies

I did nazi that one coming...
