That would be true for a company with any connection to reality, but Tesla is so far detached from reality that his departure would tank the stock price. Supposedly the stock price increased from the abysmal earnings report because during the earnings call he claimed he’d be spending less time with doge and more with the company.
The audacity of this motherfucker.
Well yeah, it was the US that put 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs and demanded allies also slap high tariffs on Chinese EVs. Without this, Tesla would be more than trampled in those markets. Also, the only reason why Tesla turned a profit in Q1 2025 is because of the carbon credits that the US government gives it. Without billions upon billions in US government subsidies, Tesla wouldn’t exist.
My point is that the rate of improvement is slowing down. Also, its capabilities are often overblown. On the surface it does something amazing, but then flaws are pointed out by those who have a better understanding of the subject matter, then those flaws are excused with fluff words like “hallucinations”.
The assumption here is that the AI will improve. Under the current approach to AI, that might not be the case, since it could be hitting its limitations and this article may be pointing out a symptom of those limitations.
What fascist dictatorship did this disrupt?
Of course they block the one good thing he’s done.
Maybe this time the bullshit will be seen through, but I don’t have my hopes up. There are other forces at play keeping the stock up other than reality. It’ll be rationalized as “but robotaxis, AI, robots, etc”.
Seems some are confusing the third party estimator with the official page. This is the official page: https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/AccountSpend
The good news is that this isn’t a once-in-a-lifetime event. The bad news is that this is a once-in-an-empire event. At least we get to witness a key turning point in the US empire. Pose for the history books!
It peaked last month but has actually dropped a lot since then: https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/eggs-us
I assume it’s because the price was so ridiculously high that the reduction in sales was finally felt by suppliers. Trump did nothing to help.
It’s still important to point out and put on the public record.
On Monday he said there wouldn’t be a pause. He’s always lying. Which means an investor can’t trust him.
There are certain investors that can trust him, that being his buddies. They were probably told there would be a pause and it got out early, so he denied it to keep the dump going so they could continue buying before when they planned the pump.
israel should be changed to not exist anymore.
I tried playing it but it’s so incoherent (walls becoming paths, dead enemies randomly coming back to life, health pickups that do nothing, etc) that I’m not even sure this counts as a game. Typically a game has rules so that you can set how you play according to those rules. This is just poorly-generated trash, which I guess fits in with the rest of the hot garbage AI we’ve currently got.
Negative wealth? Finally, we can claim to have some form of wealth!
You mean like how democrats love to claim their hands are tied on any issue that benefits the common person? Pointing out that electoralism hasn’t worked isn’t defeatism, it’s recognizing reality.
People at or near retirement age should have a 401k invested in more safe funds with a higher mix of bonds. Why would they have such a high proportion of stocks that a drop in the stock market would impact their spending habits?
Ah yes, the mastermind behind the cybertruck is what the company needs more of. Elon “Funding Secured” Musk is good at milking the government teat and pulling tricks (some of which are outright illegal) to boost the stock price. That’s great for bringing money into Tesla, but what is Tesla doing with that money? With Musk’s direction, that money is being flushed down the toilet. They actually lost money last quarter, but thanks to carbon credits (government teat coming to the rescue yet again), they managed to turn a profit. Eventually the runway runs out.
