I am imagining a headline:
SEC forces profitable and growing company into bankruptcy for statement that has no effect on market.
In the body of the article, the point will be made that we are all made safer from investor fraud by such vigilance and enforcement rigor, that a policy of zero tolerance is preferable to any consideration of intent or timing or factuality in the offending statement, and also preferable to consideration of possible damage from enforcement. Also the point will be made that the slack in this market segment will easily be taken up by the other automobile manufacturers, in fact that without this company that according to the SEC was forced into bankruptcy by mismanagement, many existing companies will be more likely to survive, so there is not economic loss on balance. Or some such horrendously awful total bullshit.
Yeah sure I exaggerate, if they force Elon completely out Tesla will survive, but I expect it would no longer pose as much of a threat to Detroit.
