Elon's still pumping his DOGE work and the Cybertruck daily on his X account.

Cybertruck may have a big customer with $100million+ orders, wouldn't count them out:

Big NASA money involved like the earlier bonds the same company bought from SolarCity.

Less than 2000 trucks is 100 million dollars? And even then, this is meaningless for a Ponzi scheme “worth” $1.5 trillion.

0.0067%

Do you still think your claim makes sense?

It's not meaningless, because the stock price is based on vibes.

Losing a big CT sale is bad vibes. If the finances don't matter on the way up, why would they matter on the way down?

They said they only sold around 5000 of the trucks in the quarter. Was only responding to the stuff about Cybertruck. It seems like a material portion of its sales are to his own other company.

I really wonder how Musk will fare when the tides turn because they eventually will

They've already turned, and turned back, since he left DOGE.
