Is/n't Tesla literally/figuratively crashing?

Random aside - is there actually a good way to stream that show? Every few years I try to watch it and it's always garbage quality.

As long as it isn't impacting his company, yes.

[Krandor]

Yes but when he started getting into shit with the state of California over his factory in Fremont the Twitter/reddit hive mind decided to proclaim him as rightwing

[Melena]

He's honestly on whatever side gets him more brownie points. Dude plays both sides like a fiddle to his benefit.

Of the two, Musk’s electric vehicle company has fared worse, with its stock down almost 16% so far this week to $728. Twitter shares fell 9.5% for the week, closing Thursday at $45.08. Both stocks have taken a bigger hit than the S&P 500, which is down 4.7% for the week.

The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that U.S. securities regulators are investigating Musk’s tardy disclosure that he had bought more than 5% of Twitter shares. Musk now owns more than 9% of the San Francisco company.

A lawsuit filed last month by some Twitter shareholders alleges that Musk’s stake hit 5% on March 14, so he should have filed forms with the SEC disclosing that by March 24. Instead, Musk didn’t make the required disclosure until April 4, hurting less-wealthy investors who sold Twitter stock in the nearly two weeks before he disclosed his stake and drove up the price, the lawsuit alleges.

Also Wednesday, a federal judge in California handed a group of Tesla shareholders a major victory, unsealing his ruling that Musk falsely and recklessly tweeted in 2018 that he had funding secured to take Tesla private when the deal wasn’t final. The tweets pushed up Tesla’s share price at the time.

The ruling means that jurors in a shareholder lawsuit will start off knowing that the judge has ruled that Musk’s tweets were false.

Tesla has been removed from the S&P 500 ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance).

Its criteria include hundreds of data points per company that pertain to the way businesses affect the planet and treat stakeholders beyond shareholders — including customers, employees, vendors, partners and neighbors.

Changes to the index took effect on May 2, and a spokesperson for the index explained why they were made in a blog post published Wednesday.

It said that Tesla’s “lack of a low-carbon strategy” and “codes of business conduct,” along with racism and poor working conditions reported at Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California, affected the score. Tesla’s handling of an investigation by the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration also weighed on its score.

While Tesla’s stated mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy, in February this year it settled with the Environmental Protection Agency after years of Clean Air Act violations and neglecting to track its own emissions. Tesla ranked 22nd on last year’s Toxic 100 Air Polluters Index, compiled annually by U-Mass Amherst Political Economy Research Institute — worse than Exxon Mobil, which came in 26th. (The index uses data from 2019, the most recently available.)

In Tesla’s first-quarter filing the company also disclosed it is being investigated for its handling of waste in the state of California, and that it had to pay a fine in Germany for failures to meet “take back” obligations in the country for spent batteries.

The news has dropped Tesla stock by 7% as of this post.

Losing touch? Babe it's been gone and was pretty apparent when he had his melt down over no one wanting to use his sub.

[Gwynplaine]
