Because he stands on his values- more people should.....
Like Pablo he doesn't care about losing billions

I understand that to some like Pablo, big losses aren't a concern. But it wasn't only the CEO's money that got flushed into oblivion.
I was under the impression that a CEO is supposed to be looking after everyone's investment.

I guess he figured he only has 12.8% stake.... I get it as I was a day to day investor

People like you, and Pablo, know how to make money off these swings.
I think ALL CEOs should have a BITOG moderator, filtering any politics!

He is still owed $60B - still being held up in the courts.

Twitter and SpaceX are more than enough to keep him busy - and likely worth more than Tesla also.

Interesting how nobody cares about China continually violating trade agreements.
Constant IP theft, flooding the markets, barriers for foreign investors etc. Somehow Canadians were never concerned.

I do not know about nobody but this is the complex world we live in and Canada has had many issues with China that does not make the US news, those of us looking on as outsiders may or may not get the full story. Like it or not China is an economic powerhouse and the reality is countries are all dealing with it in ways we may not agree on. Battle of economic sytems is what we are witnessing. For me I avoid anything from China if I have a choice, even if the alternative costs more. Others just shop on price only for anything they buy regardless of value.

Merely peanuts to Pablo

I’d consider TSLA when it hits $30/share. A P/E of 15 is about what I’m willing to pay for a car company - not sure they’re really a tech company, anyway, and even then, they’re a tech company under pressure.

Years ago (summer/fall 2008), I bought DE (John Deere) at $44/share. It was a P/E of about 7 at the time - way undervalued - and crisis or not - people needed tractors. At $464/share, it’s got a P/E of just over 19, high, but not high enough for me to worry.

P/E matters to me, fundamentally, I am a value investor.

I bought TSLA years ago, when it was $750 - got out at $900 - and I’m glad I missed the ride up, and the ride down.

What was TSLA's P/E at the time you bought it? And sold it? I thought they always had stratospheric P/E's?

The CEO is beholden to the shareholders, by definition.
The CEO's Mea Culpa gave TSLA a boost and hopefully the 71% drop in net income.

Not sure when but I think it’s inevitable

You understand I was kidding. The opposite is happening.

This is how you resolve the Tesla issues and regain shareholder confidence

I don’t believe that Mexico and Canada have a long term plan to crush the USA. I believe China does. Short and long term.

And unlike here/there - they suddenly don’t have a term limit …

Well I guess the Trade "action" thingy is off again. The 5PM presser is likely intended to talk this thing back down.

I will withhold judgement. However word on the street is he is trying to break the yuan like he and and Soros shorted and broke the British Pound back in the 90's. I am trying to wrap my head around how exactly that would even work, but that is what "they" are saying.

Could be at the direction or Black Rock or who ever runs these huge hedge funds.

The tariffs have accelerated the damage, and hurt not only for Intel but the entire Semiconductor business.
Given SEMI compromises a large percentage of my portfolio, I feel the pain!

Ridiculously high, of course. But I bought it as a tech stock, and as a short term thing.

It worked out about like I thought, I made around 20% in a little over a month, and I got out.

I took the cash and put it in Nvidia last year.

I am fundamentally an value investor, but it’s worth being diversified across sectors.
