Elon Musk

if your company is on the stock market, yes, it is.

grimes should just release her new album as an exhibit in the discovery phase of Musk's trial.

"your honor, i enter exhibit 16 into the record, this earworm with witchhouse production under a buoyant pop melody, 'IPO'"

lmao assuming Grimes is still alive

clown is goin down

$40million for a tweet, fair enough but who got even half as busted for anything leading up to the great crash?

he remains as CEO

the only bad publicity is bankrupcty

well get there

lol matt levine

Musk will purchase $20 million worth of the company’s stock in the next trading opportunity, according to a person familiar with his plans. He’s Tesla’s largest shareholder, with a 20 percent stake.

Musk is paying the SEC a $20 million fine. Tesla is also paying the SEC a $20 million fine. Is what is happening here that Musk feels responsible for Tesla’s $20 million fine, so he’s making it up to Tesla by buying some stock? But he’s not buying it from Tesla? He’s just going out into the stock market and buying some Tesla stock? Does he … think that … if he does that … Tesla gets the money? I feel like the implied message here is “Elon Musk doesn’t really ‘get’ corporate finance, so cut him some slack for tweeting weird stuff about ‘going private.’”

Is it all a cunning plan? Act weird and stupid to devalue stock, buy an extra bunch when price is low, then act smart for a while so value rises... bingo, jackpot!

(nb. I don't 'get' corporate finance.)

I would be very amused if the SEC came back and did him for insider trading.

It was all tweeting while intoxicated - twitter shoudl have a bulit i nsensor for alcohol and stop you from drunk tweeting

stupidest timeline klaxon:

TIL (via @inthesedeserts and the latest @trashfuturepod ep) that Elon Musk made his first million by selling his Korn fansite to Korn's then manager, because he discovered that the bassist was ripping off the bass riff from Seinfeld https://t.co/FI7xkjDLHa

Musk has started mocking the US securities and exchange commission (days after he was fined millions by them) and not even the die hard supporters are on board for this spiral into defiance pic.twitter.com/rjR3Jy0mjd

trying to imagine being the kind of person who loves a company so much they shove their "life savings" into a single stock

upsetting!

Of course this is the first response:

The stock was at the exact same price 5 days ago. It’s unstable because of shorts and constant manipulation campaigns. That said, buy in the dip because taunts or not, TSLA will still be a trillion valuation in 11 years according to analysts.

I do love how these flamethrower-totin' free-marketeers get all in a huff about the existence of short positions

according to analysts, don't buy futures or options with your life savings

uh

holy shit bruce wayne is real?????

Tony Stark does not care about solving important problems wtf

if you don’t think defeating ultron is an important problem i dunno what to tell you buddy

my tweets are way worse than elon musk's but do i ever come under attack? no i do not, it's a rich man's world yes it is yes it is

ultron was a problem of his own making iirc? so that's more like just cleaning up after yourself

xp

if i accidentally set my curtains on fire, stopping my house from burning down is still an important problem no matter the source of the flames

some would say the most urgent problem facing us today

that doesn't make you a hero, it makes you an idiot

An idiot hero

lmao Palmer Luckey is the VR chud who maxed out a donation to literal white supremacist Steve King

i actually know one of the writers of that piece; fortunately their bit wasn't terrible
