I don't know enough to say with any certainty, but it would seem like large investors would at least be members of the Elon fan boi club, if not officers of the club. Money over everything tho.

Until the stock price starts reflecting the economic reality of the company as opposed to Elon sky high promises, there isn't going to be any serious effort to remove him. The stock's value right now is tied entirely to Elon and not the fundamentals of the company. I don't think any major investor is going to willingly take the price hit that would come with getting rid of Elon and actually getting the company in proper functioning order.

  • I think Elon's true genius (besides being born into a family who owns a Zambian emerald mine) lies in endlessly sucking up billions of our tax dollars so he can build toys for upper-middle class urban

I agree with you. But the stock is down ~40% from the 12 month high. (still ridiculously inflated) 

At what point do they throw him overboard?

Maybe if market cap gets below 300B (lower than Toyota)? Hard to say because the value is so disconnected from the business right now. In order to get rid of him you'd need some belief that the company could reach or surpass its market cap at the time without him at the helm, and unless P/E gets down to the level of other manufacturers (4-10), I have a hard time figuring out how anyone could have confidence in that. 

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-troubles-european-business-is-getting-worse-as-sales-slump-in-april-155815479.html

Tesla’s (TSLA) troubles in Europe are going from bad to worse.

The latest data out of the UK found Tesla registrations (a proxy for sales) hit only 512 new vehicles in April, per the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders auto trade group. That figure is down 62% from a year earlier; meanwhile, Chinese EV maker BYD's (BYDDY) registrations surged over 650% to 2,511 units.

Tesla’s UK underperformance follows weakness in other key regions. Germany’s KBA trade group reported registrations dipped 46% in the country to 885. The country is home to Tesla’s only European factory. BYD saw its German registrations jump over 755% to 1,566 units.

we've got a company that loses sales huge YoY, CEO does multiple nazi salutes, and now has a bot designed to spread the word of MechaHitler.  How is this not absolutely in the tank.

Plenty of people on this board were absolutely sucking his dick just a couple of years ago.

So was the rest of the world. He did some legitimately cool shit before he turned into whatever the fuck he is now. 

So here’s an interesting question to ponder - if you had $400 billion, and you wanted to disarm, defeat, neuter, (whatever you want to call it) Trump, how would you go about it?

I think that’s actually a good idea. Could be successful if executed well. Which it probably won’t be.

Nailed it. I'm gonna laugh when his autonomous robotaxis still have safety monitors riding around in them months from now. Such a technological triumph.

Drove the 2026 full self driving model S for a week a bit ago.  That car is super dope.  Drove it back roads to San Marcos and I35 back to Austin and didn’t have to take over once. Unreal. Interface is really nice, interior feels nicer than before too.

The FSD is extremely dialed in. I don’t really drive anymore (<5% of time) and feel safer when the car is in control.

We were blown away. Add 400 mile range (I’m old enough to not need the Plaid version) and it’s hard to beat. 

side note we have a mach-e GT right now for a teen and it’s pretty dope too (teen is under contract 2 speeding tickets and he’s sidelined for 3 months (first is a week). I understand Ford’s market reaction but I don’t understand the market reaction - EVs are super fly - not having to go to the gas station is one of life’s underrated luxuries.

I had thought about that a while back. This was my combo and it's available.  Dunno if it would pass the manual review.
