One other thing that hasn't been heavily talked about: What $/share on TSLA will trigger margin calls on the massive loans that Musk took out collateralized by his TSLA stock. Once those get triggered, the snowball effect of market sales by the loan holders will accelerate the downward price trajectory.

As much as I want his house of cards to implode, I'm worried about contagion.

I'll never forget how his Twitter mass-layoffs initiated that same practice to spread throughout the tech industry (yes, it was coming, but he did "cast the first stone").

For better or worse, what Elon Husk does today, the rest of the stock market does tomorrow.

Too late. Wall Street has been infected with MAGAtts.

The other day I read where some analyst said he maintained a "buy" rating on Tesla because he worried doing otherwise would hurt the administration's image.

If true, then the market will soon be an ouroboros.

Will banks have the balls to trigger margin calls on a key player in a cruel and vindictive administration? I kind of doubt it. “Cost of doing business.”
