It was more frustration with the FUD that is constantly spewed forth.
was on full display yesterday.
Would love to hear other takes on it.
I'm with you. His frustration over the lack of balance in stories, just playing up the sensationalism was clear. And now the media has taken that to assign a 'Trump-like' label to his protest over that. Because THAT sells more papers and gets more clicks than talking about his frustration over the negative spin that misleads readers.He's not burned out. He's just tired of their BS and they're not accustomed to being held accountable for their insipid questions.
You're probably right, but I think it was the wrong move. It's pretty clear that the stock market is driven partly by emotion, and the analysts are used to people sucking up to them. So now they're throwing a tantrum and driving the stock down.
He cant control the media, but he can control how he responds. A leader of a large company needs to be better.I'm with you.

Instead of taking care with getting his frustration adequately reported, they pile on and give him a label resulting in casual readers thinking he feels differently than he does.
Elon is doing just fine.He cant control the media, but he can control how he responds. A leader of a large company needs to be better.
Also, the quarterly earnings call isn't a place for just cheerleading. People are investing real money in this company, and this is the place for these people to get a better understanding of what they are investing in. Again, Im asking which questions were BS?
yes he does. Im not referring to how he runs his company. Im referring to how he responds to negativity of the press in an earnings call. Its not an interview, but a place where we investors can ask how our investment is doing.Elon is doing just fine.
He doesn't need to be better. If you think he should be different.....then ok. But he does not need to be better.
yes he does. Im not referring to how he runs his company. Im referring to how he responds to negativity of the press in an earnings call. Its not an interview, but a place where we investors can ask how our investment is doing.
the fundamental problem with your arguments is that the questions he passed on where not negative or lying about him. they were trying to get a feel for modeling the order conversion rate. a legitimate ask. you can decline to answer, but its not a poor question.
as a person who has worked for some very abrasive (to wall street and others) CEOs, let me demonstrate the difference between eloquently not taking their crap vs. what Elon did. Elon just shut it down and insulted the asker. a better approach is to shut it down with evidence on why it is a poor question or a better way to analyze it. his was a tantrum, not an argument. if you don't want to take part, have the CFO handle the call. it is not required that the CEO attend.
Is the press unfairly reporting on things? perhaps, but he didn't punish those people. he punished analysts doing their job and the employees who may have been counting on selling some stock in the coming days as they come out of the blackout period. Nothing good came of this. it was unnecessary and there are 100s of better ways to make the points you are supposedly attributing to his performance yesterday.
i suppose i have to mention i have no position in Tesla stock and i want them to succeed and have purchased multiple products from them. but yesterday was embarrassing.

And the BS from the press should not be in the questions.yes he does. Im not referring to how he runs his company. Im referring to how he responds to negativity of the press in an earnings call. Its not an interview, but a place where we investors can ask how our investment is doing.
