He is going to leave and do the promised buyout. The stock price is bargain. Tesla will be privately held company soon. My $0.02.

Curious note I found while trying to validate your claim that current stock price is bargain: if you look at the stock price on Google for the past 5 days, the graph looks like a neural network tried to reproduce Tesla's logo.

Going back to your claim, I dont think a current price of $300 per share is bargain. But with his current behaviour, I can see that happening in the near future.

Just to drive the point home: what's Tesla's dividend per share?

Obviously, that's a disengenuous argument. Many companies that don't pay dividends are (rightly) valued based on future growth and warnings estimates.

He'd bankrupt himself if he tried to do that. If the share price drops to low all his creditors will margin call him, which would wipe out the vast majority of his wealth.
