Tesla is a great American corporation. All around the world, there are investors who are excited about Tesla's great works and products. As for the visionary Elon Musk, I think he's more interested in advancing the cause of Tesla than becoming even wealthier for its own sake.

Hahahahaha

How about the headline, 'two weeks after Elon said no need to raise; once again he mislead the investment community and is raising $2B'

So when are they going to restate earnings to show they actually lost money? What..need money...why Because they took payments for vehicles, showed that as profit, and now have to make the vehicles. Probably showed loans as profit too

selling stock to raise the money you didn't need after a parabolic move... 🤔$TSLA

This is the way Musk should have done it long before
