Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

I don't understand decrying cost of labor while offering compensation that doesn't provide enough to afford what simple clerks used to. The last two younger fellas I talked to didn't have regular jobs. They said they want one but can't afford the pay cut. The buying power exists in the economy, but they have to work gigs to get the formerly normal share. That's not a problem caused by poor quality of the native labor force. They're trying but are shut out unless they accept slavery.

It's a fine line between "being left behind" and "not being able to keep up".

Conspiracy Theory: Anyone think the public Trump/Elon bromance divorce was premeditated?

Context: Trump is helping the donors who gave him 1.5-5 million, Elon donated $277 million.

Trump the businessman turned entertainer with thick skin (Elon too with thick skin) is never afraid of bad press and has a recurrent way of using it to his advantage. The bad PR from Musk on the ‘Bill’ to throw shade on Rep’s grandstanding complaints about the bill and indirectly diffuse their angst and eventually push it through.

Elon’s Trump-complaints about unraveling DOGE efforts to cut waste while engorging the national debt, EV mandates and subsidies terminated; all could be very helpful to restore Tesla’s Blue customer base. Adding in the discontinued Dragon project at Space X and Epstein file/logs’s deleted comment to sell the divorce. (which America already knew about Epstein connection). In the past, Elon confidently asserted he doesn’t need government handouts to be successful.
 
I just finished liquidating all my US holdings as of 3 PM today. With all the talk of Chinese, Japanese, Europeans and us Canadians selling off bonds in retaliation. It's not going to be a rocky road ahead.

You been working hard on that one?
 
“Thick-skinned” is tied with “humble” and “athletically-built” for last place for words I would use to describe either one of them.

Their thin-skin in twitter-verse is part of the drama sell.

Thick skin is deep seated and reflected by their history of rebutting their critics and ignoring them.

Plus the big drop in Tesla that the media freaked out about last week is a normal occurrence. Just look at the one year chart- that stock is a jawbreaker of volatility that long term Tesla holders are accustomed to.

The drop last week was the third time recently that media based drop in stock price has made me a lot of money. It's my favorite stock right now to make serious money in

The media has been talking about it since at least April. I hope it doesn’t happen.
 
I like Bill Maher a lot for his fresh perspective. I disagree with a lot of what he says, but internalize many of his points and change mine as well. Mainly because he makes good points and he’s willing to change his own mind on occasion.

Check out this fresh take on Elon. I can handle this since I can laugh at myself and accept when I’m wrong. Warning- this stint isn’t for the fair skinned. Cheers!

 
WWE was my first thought re: Musk vs Trump. Musk tried to get that going with that fb fella. Didn't work because fb actually trains and competes.

Musk is a homeless druggie. So who knows. Extraordinary people do extraordinary things
