He’ll still own *the largest share of Tesla so it won’t change anything.
*Corrected my post but the point remains: he controls the company and their image to such a degree he has to be asked to step away, all in an effort to improve his fortunes primarily.
He doesn’t own Tesla. “Elon Musk Tesla CEO Elon Musk is the largest shareholder in Tesla. With over 410 million shares, Musk holds 12.8% of all Tesla shares.” https://www.investopedia.com/articles/insights/052616/top-4-tesla-shareholders-tsla.asp#%3A~%3Atext=and+State+Street.-%2CElon+Musk%2Cover+410+million+shares%2C+Musk+holds+12.8%25+of+all+Tesla+shares.%2C-4
Musk gets his money from Tesla, and somehow manages to control the company with his minority stake.
The stock holder confirmation of the insane bonus to Musk is evidence of that.
The other investors may be collateral damage. But that’s OK IMO, they support Elon Musk, otherwise they should have gotten out long ago.The wealth from Tesla is what gives Musk power.
… I don’t think Musk is relying on tesla alone. He has money coming in from everywhere. Hence, all of his inspired businesses.
The problem is that he also has debt, a large part of which is secured by Tesla stock. If that stock took a nosedive to 10% of its previous value, the owners of said debt might come calling.
Lol yall love saying this about rich people you don’t like.
" BuT but aLl oF HiS DeBt!"
Yeah… it takes money to make money.
The would need to crash another order of magnitude for anything to happen. Tesla’s stock is crazy overvalued even now and the only justification for the over-valuation is the track record and insane over-promises of Musk. That’s the reality as investors see it. They will still bet on him until they’re thoroughly convinced that he’s not the golden child anymore.
Yeah, so i drove my brothers brand new, fully loaded model X. That shit was sweet
