That's fine if that is the argument (11/5/2024 vs today) vs all the gains since that period lost, I'm not willing to argue the point to death, the brand value destruction will continue. The fundamentals will catch up to the price eventually with enough pressure.

NVDA? Not yet, but certainly CoreWeave based on their IPO outcome [1]. TSLA made me very wealthy from IPO to when I exited, my "crocodile tears" are "Elon is a terrible human attempting to destroy democracy and something should be done about that." If you disagree, we have nothing to discuss, there is nowhere to meet in the middle on that. I have no strong preference how he is disempowered and prevented from using his wealth and power to harm.

"Are you just mad he is a powerful bully?" Yeah my dude, that is the problem. If it is a crime to not like people who hurt others with their power, guilty as charged, unapologetically. Am I supposed to feel bad about that position? I do not.
