Well, technically speaking, CEO’s job is precisely to pay attention to social media.

Most short sellers do not. But there is an active community of short sellers who are conspiracy theorist that think Tesla is a fraud or have ideological vendetta against Tesla.

Cause the conspiracy theorist short sellers are saints who are against the concept of making a profit.

It’s a bit more complex than that, a lot of Tesla’s volatility is due to short sellers spreading fake news or targeting Tesla via PR to tank Tesla’s stock. (Which is against SEC rules, just the SEC doesn’t really care when people break SEC rules or not)

You are distorting quite a bunch of facts here to create a narrative that Musk is overreacting.

“In everything else”, that is quite a statement about an unreleased car you know little about.

The 35k price was without tax credits.

Some people have already picked up their SR cars, just because a few people got delays in their “estimate” time, isn’t the end of the world, how about waiting a week and see?

When Audi and Porsche took apart the Model 3, their executives were in full panic mode at how far ahead Tesla was. (Hence the delay, they had to redo their plans because they couldn’t compete)

The Taycann isn’t a Model S competitor though, it has closer competition with the Model 3 performance and even then not really.

“BMW had some further details about the i4, which sounds like it’ll be poised to compete against the Tesla Model S and the like. It’s said to do zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in four seconds, an estimated range of over 370 miles and a production set to begin in 2021.”

Of course, my intention was not to say airplanes are just as efficient as trains. My point was to show airplanes have been improving at efficiency more than any other form of transport.

Probably US? My guess for the lesser efficiency of buses comes down to capacity factor, even from personal experience there are plenty of times where there are only 2-3 people on an entire bus.

Airplanes have been becoming more efficient faster than any other form of travel.

If they were bullet trains, I’d take them over flying (don’t enjoy the feeling of if my sinus is acting up, the pressurization makes it sometimes feel like my eyeball is being torn out on airplanes).

Nonsense, they were holding back european and chinese sales due to full tax credit expiring in US. So now they focus on Europe and China.

Total nonsense. First of all, why would GM need to buy carbon credits? They have mostly been SELLING carbon credits.

Musk will never sell, so speculating is pointless.

Neutral: The question is silly, Tesla is sending cars to Europe and China, which is impacting deliveries in the US.

Pfft, amateur
