It did wonders for hitler's image.
I'm curious what's going to happen if banks start calling Leon's loans since Tesla stock isn't going to be enough to cover his loans at some point, probably pretty soon.
That's not how loans against stock work. If the share price reach a threshold the shares are automatically sold to cover the loan.

Elon musk, resign bitch.
His real decision is going to be suing everyone that doesn't buy a tesla.
Bail out and never come back. Only way else Tesla is done.
He hasn't shot any migrants from his window in the morning. Maybe shoot migrants from your window? I don't known, that's the part I remember most about Schindler's list.
That could boost sales right?
Did he try to carry a sink into Tesla?
Maybe if that $56bn bonus goes through he’ll think of something. Heh.
one thing to consider is that tesla does not make its money by selling cars, but by selling carbon credits to other companies
It's a major part of their profit margin, but even with their decline this quarter, they'd eek out a profit without it.
https://carboncredits.com/teslas-carbon-credit-revenue-soars-to-2-76-billion-amid-profit-drop/
In Q4 2024 alone, Tesla earned $692 million from selling regulatory credits or carbon credits, accounting for nearly 30% of its quarterly net income of $2.33 billion.
At least for now, they're keeping their financial head above water even without carbon credits. Of course, no business would willingly throw away 30% of its net income.
The big thing for them is that those credits are free profit. Other car companies have to buy them to make up for their ICE cars. Tesla doesn't sell a single ICE car, so everything they make comes with a credit. Mind you, as the market transitions away from ICE, those will naturally evaporate from the company's ledger.
I agree with your comment, but FYI:
they’d eek out a profit
eke
- to make (a living) or support (existence) laboriously:
- to eke out an income with odd jobs.

Sorry bud, EVs were championed by reasonable people with stable government jobs. You fired them yourself congratulations you are your own worst enemy.
But you guys, Henry Ford like Hitler toooooo!
One thing that might help is to stop carrying around that human shield. Just a matter of time after that.
Maybe you could just make like a tree and leave?
He could divest himself from the company.
xAI will bail tesla out.
Wouldn't it be the other way around? I think Musk would rather have TSLA ~~bagholders~~ shareholders prop up his private companies, of which he likely owns a higher percentage than Tesla. The pitch could be that xAI has what Tesla needs for some of the vaporware he keeps promising and that Tesla should therefore acquire xAI.

Elon's entire career is about creating hype with the help of his loyal sycophants and then profiting off it.
He's gonna sell Teslas... ON MARS! Definitely start in 5 years. Space-X will launch them!
