"So while we suspect most short sellers gave up thinking about the stock years ago (please do share your thesis if you haven’t), it does seem that selling cars to generate cash in the present will remain important to reaching whatever incredible future the Technoking has in mind for his company.
Maybe the days when buying a Tesla was a statement about the climate, or embracing a positive future, are long gone. Maybe the share price is impervious to financial gravity. Maybe car buyers won’t care about what is already being called the “salute hoax”.
If investors do start to worry that Musk could become more associated with white power than clean power, however, from $1.4tn it’s an awfully long way down."
