However for investors, without the hype-master, the shares are only worth 1/5 or 1/6 of their current value. Tesla was innovative 15-20 years ago. It has been severely sidetracked by Musk's ego.

Keep track of all the Bros and Cos that have supported Trump and boycott them until Trump is completely gone. Only consider supporting them again if... well never.
Poor Elon. Rich people really do not understand. Even if they came from poverty backgrounds, they lose perspective. They think they did it all by themselves to get where they are and do not understand that chance and luck play a big part in determining which 'hard workers with an idea' get ahead. The working world is littered with smarter people who just didn't get the breaks to become super rich. Once they are rich enough to waste $25M on a judge's election they really do not understand that for the majority of Americans losing their job can mean a quick succession to homelessness from which they may never recover.
Except, for example many Canadians, who are really fed up with being the kick ball for American Presidents (Trump has a lot of company when it comes to tariffs), who will do their best to not buy anything from the USA. I predict our trade deficit will go in the opposite direction that Trump hopes. The USA still needs to buy electricity, gas/oil, wood, and various other raw products from Canada. We don't have to buy finished goods from the USA since there are plenty of other countries to supply them. We really don't need to vacation there.
This would seem more accurate to me if it said "Grandparents at 25". I'm the 25yo parent's age and for us, people were already considering whether they could afford 1 or 2 children with mortgage and childcare costs. I guess if we had the big screen TVs, cellphones stronger than computers, gaming computers, and cheap airfare around the world, many of us would have also decided parenting was much too expensive.
Wonderful news. Keep it up even when tariffs are removed. We MUST grow Canadian made for Canadians to purchase.
I think the dealership fires and vandalism are insider jobs. The dealers have unsellable merchandise. An insurance payout is about the best they could hope for.
If anything says "I don't give a shit about the constitution or laws" this is it. Unless he can use it against someone else, Trump has no time for legality of anything. He doesn't abide by it if it interferes with his wants.
I wonder if Americans will wake up and start to push back when they and their families start dying for this stuff. Taking over other countries means death and not just to those who are being taken over.
Does Russia have enough male population left to fight a big war? They've killed off a good chunk of them in Ukraine already.
Please people, if you are going to look at stock prices, look back a year, two, or more. Reddit was slightly up from its 5 year point when in October 2024, like many other stocks, it wildly went up. It isn't yet back down to the pre-October level. Someone (Musk and fellow billionaires?) have been playing these markets since the last US election to game money out of everyone else. There was no value in the business to justify the jump, just a pump and dump scheme to graft money out of the lower classes/pension portfolios.
If anyone were really worried about privacy, all internet related companies would be in bankruptcy. Apple? Meta? Google? SnapChat? Reddit? You name it, their whole purpose is collecting the personal data of their users.
