        I will say there's more excitement and perceived room to grow over 'we can revolutionise *insert new field *' compared to what... making parcels cheaper again by cutting wages and workers for the 20th time?

        Its honestly like a card game where the players turn to bluffing. They're wagering like thousands of dollars with shit cards, and everybody knows it. They're trying to psych each other out to just fold over the amount of money. Everybody KNOWS the whole table has shit hands, the question is just how shit each hand is, and how long they can keep it up for. If Musk tried to "cache out", after the first hundred million or so he'd trigger a huge selloff, and the price would plummet tor probably 1/4 of what it is now. People are also taking out short positions if they think Tesla is gonna finally break in the near future, because they can make a lot of money off of it. It literally has nothing to do with Tesla itself as a company, its crazy, this could be happening with Miracle Whips' stock and it'll be just the same. Its literally just gambling at this point, just for people who know casinos are always rigged in favor of houses.

    Damn I genuinely did not expect that, I thought musk was a small fish billionaire. Maybe they'll start the first corporate war over lithium or asteroid mining rights or something.
