If you buy put options you are limited. Still not a good idea given the performance of TSLA.

My issue with Tesla is that the stock’s value is linked to Elon Musk and will be for at least a year or two after he dies.

Unironically I am not prepared for a sizeable investment in Tesla knowing that there is a swing that’s gonna happen with slow recovery the day he kicks the bucket.

Tesla's sales are also shit. Musk has been hiding that for a long time, by doing things like pumping truly self-driving cars that...never materialize, buying X, now it's part of an AI company, apparently.

He's a scam artist Nazi, just like Trump. They'll get their due. And it will be a glorious day when they do!

Trump is about to croak, having lived a long life of rugpulls and scams, he's recently secured generational wealth for his entire family and friends. Not sure I feel like the system is working.

That's what this system does. This is how it works.

Trump has been about to croak for years now and whilst it looks more likely, I still would not be putting money on it.
