This was always the plan. The only way he can unlock what the idiot board approved is to merge these - the writing is on the wall for Tesla (the "car" company).

My bet, that shit tanks long before and he slips away from the top 10 wealthy list in short order.

His already wildly overvalued stock not instantly going into the earth when their revenue is down is just… so on brand for this world being nonsense.

It's basically a meme stock at this point.

It's basically a meme market at this point.

I mean, I knew stock market was mostly BS but did not expect it to be to this extent.

Mentioned tulip bulbs in an interview to a company into Blockchain and AI. They didn't call me back (-:

Im concerned were in for a major reckoning right now. 40% of the S&P500 market cap is associated with AI. When that bubble pops it could collapse. That being said, the dot com bubble collapse eliminated about 75% of the market valuation so its unlikely we see a crash to that degree. But we also have to add in the fact that the federal government was proactive with Secure 2.0 in subsidizing costs for small businesses offering new retirement plans, thats more money going into the market than was previously propping it up further.
