“@spacecasetayl0r We would have bought back more stock, but wanted to allow some new investors to join”

“Did you know about 𝕏 Radar to measure trends? https://t.co/7pJvoUFyRj You can use it to track mentions of technologies, products, stocks or anything. http://X.com/i/radar”

“@YunTaTsai1 “Credentials” 🤣🤣 It’s basically to the point where if the critics all love a movie, it is a contra-indicator! Movie critics are like Cramer for stocks.”

“Inverse Cramer vs Pelosi stock tracker: who will win the final battle?? https://t.co/TzI9wJJolG”

“Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that @realDonaldTrump would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock 🤭”

“Justice prevails. Meanwhile, none of the many short sellers who egregiously manipulated Tesla stock for years and lied repeatedly on TV have been prosecuted. Not one.”

“@SawyerMerritt From Grok 🤣🤣 Well, well, well, if it isn't our favorite stock market soothsayer, Jim "Reverse Midas Touch" Cramer, back at it again with his crystal ball predictions. This time, he's foretelling a bright future for Tesla, claiming it could soon reach a $1 trillion market cap.…”

“@netcapgirl The only publicly-traded stock I own is Tesla”

“@wintonARK Far too much of the stock market is effectively controlled by ISS and Glass Lewis, who have zero economic alignment with actual shareholders!”

“@ICannot_Enough @svarncapital The deal allows me to sell enough stock to pay the taxes. The remaining stock must be held for 5 years, so it is impossible for me to cash out and run.”

“Please let us know if you have any difficulties voting your Tesla stock”

“@jasondebolt Chuck labors under the illusion that western civilization is not at risk, when it clearly is. If America falls, nothing else matters, not stocks, not properties, nothing. All civilizations eventually fall, as history shows, but we want this one to last as long as possible.”

“@krassenstein Definitely buy the stock of any company where the CEO accepts the terms that I did! If you made that offer to any CEO in the top 500 companies, none would take it.”

“@0xgaut 😂😂 Remarkable how often people forget that companies only exist to provide products & services. The stock simply represents the future value of that output.”

“@ScottAdamsSays Indeed. Woke is a laughing stock at this point”

“@cb_doge Such a silly metric. It’s not a giant pile of cash. I really just own stock in the companies that I was instrumental in creating. Technically, I “lose” way more than that every time Tesla stock randomly drops.”

“@rookisaacman @alifarhat79 There is a general governance issue that arises because the stock of most publicly traded companies is mostly owned by passive or de facto passive funds, but I agree that it is not some diabolical plot pf BlackRock.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Please advise people to be wary of margin loans. Tesla has always been a high variability stock, often with no obvious rhyme or reason. We are confident about long-term value creation, but cannot control the manic-depressive nature of the stock market.”

“@POTUS I paid 53% taxes on my Tesla stock options (40% Federal & 13% state), so I must be lifting the average! I also paid more income tax than anyone ever in the history of Earth for 2021 and will do that again in 2022. @CommunityNotes, is the 3% number cited above accurate?”

“@WholeMarsBlog Sucks that I had to sell so much Tesla stock to do so (sigh)”

“In turbulent economic times, be wary of using margin loans to buy stock”

“@thomasmidleton @VivekGRamaswamy Far too much power is concentrated in the hands of “shareholder services” companies like ISS and Glass Lewis, because so much of the market is passive/index funds, which outsource shareholder voting decisions to them. ISS and Glass Lewis effectively control the stock market.”

“@GerberKawasaki In simple terms: As bank savings account interest rates, which are guaranteed, start to approach stock market returns, which are *not* guaranteed, people will increasingly move their money out of stocks into cash, thus causing stocks to drop.”

“@GerberKawasaki Securities Analysis 101 As the “risk-free” real rate of return from Treasury Bills approaches the much riskier rate of return from stocks, the value of stocks drop. For example, if T-bills and stocks both had a 10% rate of return, everyone would just buy the former.”

“@p_ferragu When there are macroeconomic risks, it is generally wise to avoid using margin loans on any company, as stocks may move in ways that are decoupled from their long-term potential”

“@semaforben All public holders of Twitter were allowed to roll their stock into Twitter as a private company, but he did not do so. Your reporting made it falsely sound like he did, when in fact he owns 0%. For the last time, how much of you does SBF own? Stop dodging the question.”

“@GerberKawasaki I don’t care about boosting the stock, but the economic implications are obvious”

“@SawyerMerritt Yes. In the (hopefully unlikely) event that Twitter forces this deal to close *and* some equity partners don’t come through, it is important to avoid an emergency sale of Tesla stock.”

“But sometimes they’re out of stock https://t.co/ybRiBp1kkP https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Hz1JWzyvv8A”

“@S3XYstarship @IWill_Travel @AOC This would be a super bad idea, since stocks can swing wildly from one day to the next, eg Snapchat dropping 43%. Tesla is ~40% below ATH! However, eliminating estate tax dodges like GRATs would be good, since probability of kids being effective stewards of capital is lower.”

“@SawyerMerritt Astute observers of my plane (and there many) will note that I don’t use a flight attendant. Moreover, only fruit & nuts are stocked on the plane. I use flights as an opportunity to fast.”

“Since I’ve been asked a lot: Buy stock in several companies that make products & services that *you* believe in. Only sell if you think their products & services are trending worse. Don’t panic when the market does. This will serve you well in the long-term.”

“@SawyerMerritt The UAW stole millions from workers, whereas Tesla has made many workers millionaires (via stock grants). Subtle, but important difference.”

“@saylor As a general principle, for those looking for advice from this thread, it is generally better to own physical things like a home or stock in companies you think make good products, than dollars when inflation is high. I still own & won’t sell my Bitcoin, Ethereum or Doge fwiw.”

“@PPathole @teslaownersSV @Kristennetten @itsALLrisky @SenSanders Yes, that is the other major source of dilution. All employees receive stock after a year at Tesla and we now have over 100,000 employees worldwide.”

“@SenSanders Want me to sell more stock, Bernie? Just say the word …”

“Note, I do not take a cash salary or bonus from anywhere. I only have stock, thus the only way for me to pay taxes personally is to sell stock.”

“Much is made lately of unrealized gains being a means of tax avoidance, so I propose selling 10% of my Tesla stock. Do you support this?”

“@SawyerMerritt @Tesla By definition, since I own ~20% of Tesla, ~80% of stock gains necessarily went to investors & employees!”

“@DrEliDavid If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it.”

“@PPathole Exactly. Only time I sell Tesla stock is when my stock options are expiring & I have no choice. Btw, I will continue to pay income taxes in California proportionate to my time in state, which is & will be significant.”

“@business To be clear, I am *not* an investor, I am an engineer. I don’t even own any publicly traded stock besides Tesla. However, when fiat currency has negative real interest, only a fool wouldn’t look elsewhere. Bitcoin is almost as bs as fiat money. The key word is “almost”.”

“@SRuhle Everyone at Tesla receives stock. My comp is all stock/options, which I do not take off the table. That’s what you’re missing.”

“u can’t sell houses u don’t own u can’t sell cars u don’t own but u *can* sell stock u don’t own!? this is bs – shorting is a scam legal only for vestigial reasons”

“@garyblack00 The only publicly traded stock I own is Tesla”

“@garyblack00 Wise words from Bogle. The point of companies is products & services. They have no point in & of themselves, nor do these indices. Buy & hold stock in companies where you love the product roadmap, sell where you don’t. https://t.co/yHVQJXTahn https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/bogle-sounds-a-warning-on-index-funds-1543504551”

“@ICannot_Enough @ZainRaz4 @vincent13031925 @JonErlichman Yes, although I didn’t expect the stock to rise so much so soon. The reason for the stock options is that they’re needed to help pay for humanity to get to Mars in 10 to 20 years.”

“@RBReich All Tesla workers also get stock, so their compensation increased proportionately. You are a modern day moron.”

“@kenyanwalstreet Not actually a payout, just a vesting of stock options. It may never pay out, as the stock can’t be sold for 5 years after exercise. The stock must be bought & income taxes paid, then hold value for 5 years.”

“@valleyhack Essentially. Long-term purpose of my Tesla stock is to help make life multiplanetary to ensure it’s continuance. The massive capital needs are in 10 to 20 years. By then, if we’re fortunate, Tesla’s goal of accelerating sustainable energy & autonomy will be mostly accomplished.”
