The court of opinions definitely matters......until valuations get so cheap that they don't matter.I think forward looking wallstreet doesn't care if they like Elon or not. They care more about how Elon is liked or disliked, and if his behavior is material in a positive or a negative way to future cash flow. So the court of public opinion kind of matters. There have been business that had to deal with massive shrinking revenues all due to a negative association with a brand by a key member. This is usually why CEOs or key members of businesses that the brand associate with usually doesn't take sides unless if taking sides benefits the business (IE, gun manufactures will definitely take the side of the Republicans).
Which is why I said what I said about that scenario I listed
No one on Wall St is going to care about court of public opinion when a stock is doing earnings growth that's TRIPLE it's Forward PE.
I can't find a single example anywhere across Wall St where a stock's earnings YoY growth rate is triple its Forward PE. I would love for someone to show me an example where that level of irrationality and disconnect is happening.
