Thanks. I would say that is a significant amount of selling in the last six months. Over 100,000 shares, totaling about $25-30M (remember Musk bought about that much in the recent offering, and was seen as a vote of confidence, even though he is worth much much more than JB). JB still has 300,000 or about $75M worth left. But again there could be many reasons for the sale. I never said that JB no longer has faith in the company (as some posters here are mis-interpreting my words). As I said above,Please read post #60384 of this thread.
Edit: I'd copy/paste but I'm on mobile
Let me clarify, JB is still a believer and holds a signif amount of shares.
But I don't want to belabor the point about JB and shares sales. That was only an ancillary point to my larger argument:
Perhaps you've found something. I can't say without knowing more. But can I ask WHEN you came to know this info and WHEN you think Musk became aware of this.
The reason I ask is that money talks (and BS walks). If Musk was aware of this fact by the recent capital raise (around May 5th or so), then Tesla could have raised equity at a much higher share price by revealing this info to a select group of investors with an NDA. Even otherwise, with such a silver bullet or trump card, there is no way the share price would have dived to 180, much less break 300 (after all, you're willing to double down here at 250 based on this knowledge). Tesla, Musk, and upper mgmt would have used this knowledge to secure capital and support the share price. It would have been extremely foolish and reckless not to.
Also, you would not see JB and other executives selling their shares in droves. And possibly there would not have been as many executive departures. (Not to say that they don't believe in the story, but what you're talking about is a sliver bullet.)
