I dont think so. I think Tesla, as a brand, lives a very long successful career. I just think it wont be under the current capital structure.Maybe in 1 year we'll all look back and say: Damn that one tweet that destroyed a whole car company.
Good point. Tesla must have some serious problems. I am afraidBoomer, I agree with everything you wrote except David Morton. He came in at a salary of $350k, but was also granted a $10 million equity grant payable in 4 years. The man is an accountant. The only way you walk away from that kind of money is if you a) hit the lottery b) find a beautiful, single, rich heiress to marry you, or c) realize the odds of the grant being worth staying around for 4 years are very slim.
“Since I joined Tesla on August 6th, the level of public attention placed on the company, as well as the pace within the company, have exceeded my expectations,” Morton said in the filing. “This caused me to reconsider my future. I want to be clear that I believe strongly in Tesla, its mission, and its future prospects, and I have no disagreements with Tesla’s leadership or its financial reporting.”
In plain English it means this poor guy walked into a complete "sh*t-storm". While he has no "disagreements" with Tesla's financial reporting he seemingly did not like what he saw ahead. Because otherwise, they would have had to fire him and pry him out of his office to walk away from $10 million. If the poor guy is married he probably came home to another one too! lol
Can you imagine trying to explain to your wife why you walked away from $10 million?
You have to hand it to the Tesla legal department. They must have one hell of an air-tight NDA. Because no one from the C-suite talks on the record. From Jason Wheeler and Jon McNeill on down.fair point. but we’ll probably never hear the real reason ...and as you stated, will have to have time to allow us to figure it out ourselves.
i’d tend to agree that it’s not a good look that he's left, whether it’s bevaide he truly just can’t handle the sh!tshow right now, or if he didn’t think he’d last 4 years to get the bonus.

I did not say that. I said David Morton just may not have liked what he saw for his own reasons. And you only need to post a response once. We heard you the first timeGood point. Tesla must have some serious problems. I am afraid
You forgot to mention that the graph is correct, it's only delayed. While the competition is flatlining.
I find it difficult to believe, that in 21 days you think that you can’t handle it. I mean, how this looks when he is applying for next job.fair point. but we’ll probably never hear the real reason ...and as you stated, will have to have time to allow us to figure it out ourselves.

or the books are a disaster and he has to do illegal stuffI find it difficult to believe, that in 21 days you think that you can’t handle it. I mean, how this looks when he is applying for next job.
I don’t know what the real reason is, but the official explanation is not credible.or the books are a disaster and he has to do illegal stuff
True. I currently do not know what to do with my shares. I guess I try to stick with them and sell them around 300-340 with luck for a small loss.I don’t know what the real reason is, but the official explanation is not credible.
Yes because of short term stock volatility. That is a harmful thing. It harms the company and shareholders. I don't care about the random walk in the park type of stock volatility, it's just noise. Volatility due to the seemingly irrational and unstable behavior of the CEO and the non-stop revolving door of top management concerns me.Why is he a train wreck...IN YOUR opinion....because of short term stock volatility?
Having built four of the most talked about companies in the last 20 years with two being unbelievably successful (PayPal,Space X) I think he has been a little bit better that a "Train Wreck"

But if the scandal comes out before I might get a total loss
THE scandal? Please explain.
On a more personal level I believe it would be good for you to take a break because you are talking yourself into an ever darker abyss. Breathe.

Musk YouTube Breakdown Sends Tesla Shares Over a Cliff
Brandishing an outsize glass of whiskey in one hand and a cigar-sized marijuana "blunt" in the other, Tesla CEO Elon Musk embarked on a samurai sword wielding meltdown during a live YouTube interview last night. His mind clouded by drugs, booze, insomnia, megalomania and alien brainwaves, the erratic entrepreneur alternated between crazed laughter and morose ruminations about crazy subjects like human survival and AI during a bizarre two-and-half hour conversation with comedian and fellow stoner, Seth Rogen, at one point appearing on the brink of lopping off the stunned host's head with a samurai sword, at another of attacking him with a flamethrower....

EV's are the future, everyone knows it. Tesla brand (as of now, although this could get hurt) is still the primo name in the EV game, it might always be. I think that has value and think it lives on.
The problem is the way it has the most value is being owned by an organization that is heavily capitalized ALREADY and has all the resources necessary to make great EV's. Tesla has great bits and pieces, but it just doesnt have the total package of what a car manufacturer needs to be.
If Tesla does restructure (likely leading to a significant drop in SP, possibly to zero), I would very likely be a buyer in the new entity if it was structured properly. It is a great name and a great brand (with great products when QC is working), but the company itself is missing some very important pieces to be successful as it stands today.
