Tesla Down 38% in 4 Months

Whether you love or hate Elon Musk, he still has a sense of humor with TSLA being down 38% in 4 months.

TSLA closed at 766.37 on Monday which is over 477 points down since November 4^th.

And despite the fact that he’s lost billions (on paper) he announced a challenge to Vladimir Putin to “Single Combat” with Ukraine being the prize to the winner.

On his twitter account…

“I hereby challenge Владимир Путин to single combat,” Musk wrote, writing Vladimir Putin in Russian. “Stakes are Україна [Ukraine],” he wrote.

LOL!

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Musk, for the umpteenth time, has the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) all over his case for new violations, and he’s desperately trying to change the subject.

Or Maybe, it’s because Musk has been providing Ukraine with internet via SpaceX Starlink stations and he wants to make Ukraine “All about Meeeeee.” (Musk will do anything for ratings…)

Or Maybe, Just Maybe he’s smoking waaaayyy too much pot these days and wants to show Putin that he’s a lot funnier than that failed comedian Zelensky.

Regardless of his motive, Musk is one of the best trolls on the internet.

And in one of his follow-up tweets, he jabbed Netflix saying how they are…

“waiting for the war to end” so they can “make a movie about a black Ukraine guy who falls (sic) in love with a transgender Russian soldier”. 

Down 38% in 4 months

The fact that TSLA stock is down 38% makes you wonder how Putin would respond to Musk’s challenge.

He could easily say:

“How about No more Nickel for Tesla?”

Or, most likely, he won’t respond at all.

Let’s try to be objective here.

Putin is a serious martial artist (black-belt) who practices Sambo, one of the most badass off-shoots of judo.

He’s also a Russian dictator and political strongman who can stare holes in steel.

Musk makes electric cars….and jokes on “twitter.”

But he’s consistent in that he somehow manages to dodge every bullet, every time he comes under fire.

And as far as him taking on Putin (20 years his senior) in a fight, my money would be on the Russki.

Speaking of which, be sure to read How, When, and Why Putin Came to Power in Russia…Proving How Everything is Connected…Everything.

Share this with your friend who love or hate Elon Musk and/or Putin.

They’ll thank YOU later.
