Well if you're going to move the goalposts so that it's a 60 yard field goal at sea level, then the answer is: Duh!

You have to remember that there are intelligent investors, intelligent wise investors, intelligent unwise investors, and of course all the rest.

JB seems more pragmatic than Elon. EM dreams the impossible, but JB tells it like it is. A great pair indeed.

So, a 60 yard field goal, a 65 yard field goal, a 55 yard field goal and a 5 yard field goal.

I agree. High intelligence and wisdom tend to correlate but not always. You may be intelligent and find many potential risks and challenges for Tesla. You may be very intelligent and find very creative ways to short TSLA, but in the words of Elon: "It's probably unwise".

IMHO: Intelligence and investing only go hand in hand, if the intelligence is used to know what the market thinks, since the market sets the price. The equity and/or company has very little to do with the public market valuation, it is immaterial what widget the company is making.

Wise: Your TSLA investment is stock...long term holding
Intelligent: Your TSLA investments are leveraged with options as you can read the tea leaves.
I am neither but enjoy the collective wisdom and intelligence of 'most' (you know who you are) of the contributors to this thread

I'm just so happy that this thread is back to being civil. Or maybe I'm just blocking the correct people.
I think some are thankfully taking a long holiday weekend. Even those who appear to make a career out of posting against TSLA need a day off from time to time.
Actually, I suspect new moderation talent stepped up recently and, similar to Hercules, cleaned out some isles in the Augias stables. Bliss. Peace.

The real clearing was done by the gods.
If you can tolerate some unqualified psychologizing, though I haven't read the biography, somewhere I picked up the idea Elon had issues with his father, but I do believe Freud got a lot of things messed up. (The only Freudian psychiatrist I have encountered was known by his peers as a sexual predator, for example.)
People are different but by inspection from the evidence on this thread, both JB and Elon are quite intellectually confident in their own different ways and they must like themselves. What a pleasant contrast to the intellectual bullies we so often have contact with.
Meanwhile it has really been a pleasant, and sometimes hilarious, experience basking in your conversation today and yesterday. Using guy in the impersonal (asexual if there are ladies present) a real guy-guy experience.
Edit: Should be gender neutral.

Freud is most likely projecting his own problems into a theory. What he theorized might be true for a certain % of the population, but not all. Psychological theories has been wrong before and is really up to interpretation.
Psychologists, also often self admit that they have a hard time for ing deep relationships due to the constant analysis. This is from the mouth of a PhD ratting on her own profession. I've since realized that they are probably bullshitting most of the time.
Mine was perfectly ok in the sessions (marriage counseling, etc.) but was so far off the wall in conversation at social events, he would admit to being insane. One of the most psychologically gifted former students of mine, and now a centi-millionaire personal injury lawyer, said of our mutual shrink at his funeral, "a conversation with him was sheer stream of consciousness." No wonder he, the shrink, was gifted. He was a student of Gregory Bateson, Margaret Meade's husband. The attorney is so successful because he really psyches out juries and talented at spotting clients who are lying, but he's been just as stupid about some women as I have been.
Perhaps a corollary of the old-saw, an expert knows a lot. The ultimate expert has achieved so much he knows everything about nothing. (I think I got the first phrase mixed up.)

OMG, TMSE and sunhelm have discovered that TSLA is just now emerging from trading in the dreaded "Kilroy was here" pattern.

No offense intended to the gods of this tread but my academician's bias has always been that people could be divided into janitors like my self and administrators who do the things that have to be done, but the really smart people are the artists who do the things that can't be done, sometimes with disastrous effects politically. For example, my sister-in-law says "choosing among politicians is like deciding which std you want."
