Tesla Short Sellers Reap Billions: Is Musk’s Long Game Over?
Elon Musk’s July prediction about Tesla short sellers being obliterated seems like a distant memory. With Tesla’s stock plummeting and short sellers pocketing $16.2 billion, is it time to question Musk’s long-term vision? Is this a temporary setback, or a sign of deeper issues? BYD’s rapid charging technology and Tesla’s declining China shipments paint a challenging picture. Can Tesla’s self-driving technology and Optimus robot truly deliver the promised disruption, or are these distractions from more pressing concerns? Musk’s focus on sending Optimus to Mars by 2026 seems audacious, even while Tesla faces intensifying competition on Earth. Is this misplaced ambition, or genius at work? Despite the current downturn, Musk remains defiant. Is this unwavering confidence justified, or is he out of touch with reality? Where do you see Tesla five years from now? Will Musk have the last laugh, or are the short sellers vindicated? Let the discussion begin.
