@WolfgangRichtEU You’re promoting theft. But what have you built? If you steal from those who do actually build and create value, they (including I) will stop creating for the world or just create a better world without you.
@elonmusk@DanielleFong @olsenbdnr There are also times when you’re so nervous in front the whiteboard that you forget everything even after spending two grueling years solving the problems that others failed at. Interview at Starbase in 2025.
@EduardoSuarez25@brivael Stop promoting weakness of mind. We don’t need labels or identity politics. I’d rather be an intelligent and independent individual than grouped under labels. You’re conflating liberty with coddling. There is respect for opportunity, but not for outcome. Each individual’s outcome
@vladtenev Are $TSLA options positions transferable? Make it easy to transfer call spreads without incurring taxes on realized gains, and I’ll do it this weekend. @vladtenev@RobinhoodApp@AskRobinhood
BREAKING: I have just confirmed that @CharlesSchwab will be voting FOR Elon Musk's 2025 CEO Performance Award plan.
Schwab voted NO in both the 2018 and 2024 pay package votes.
Schwab: "Schwab asset management intends to vote in favor of the 2025 CEO Performance award proposal. We firmly believe that supporting this proposal aligns with management and shareholder interest."
NEWS: Schwab has just released a public statement saying it is voting FOR Elon Musk's 2025 CEO Performance Award.
"We appreciate your patience and understanding as we await the conclusion of the voting process for the Tesla shareholder meeting being held later this week. Schwab Asset Management’s approach to voting on proxy matters is thorough and deliberate. We utilize a structured process that focuses on protecting and promoting shareholder value. We apply our own internal guidelines and do not rely solely on recommendations from Glass Lewis or ISS. In accordance with this process, Schwab Asset Management intends to vote in favor of the 2025 CEO performance award proposal. We firmly believe that supporting this proposal aligns both management and shareholder interests, ensuring the best outcome for all parties involved.
Schwab Asset Management uses a structured approach for deciding how to vote that is rooted in a singular goal – promoting shareholder value. Our Proxy Voting Policy focuses on: 1) board composition and quality; 2) actions a board has taken to drive strategy, deliver performance and manage relevant risks; and 3) clarity and accessibility of reporting on key issues. In assessing and making decisions consistent with our Proxy Voting Policy, data and insights are gathered from multiple sources, including through our strategic engagement program, and are all considered when making voting decisions."

If @CharlesSchwab doesn’t vote for Elon Musk’s 2025 CEO Performance Award plan, I’ll move all my assets to another brokerage. My followers, many of whom also hold assets with Schwab and collectively own at least hundreds of millions in $TSLA, may do the same.
I can’t in good conscience stay with a brokerage that votes against this CEO Performance Award plan that is in my view clearly in shareholders’ best interests. I join @jasondebolt in saying that voting against the recommendations of a board that has delivered extraordinary returns is out of step with retail investors, Tesla employees, and the leadership we invested in to support.
We are ready to moves our shares. I hope @CharlesSchwab makes the right call here.
Vote FOR @elonmusk. The award is only achieved IF he hits exceptionally ambitious market-cap and operational milestones—if he falls short, he gets nothing. If he succeeds, shareholders will win big through unprecedented value creation, and he will earn added voting rights to continue driving @Tesla's long-term vision.
@piloly Do you think the recent shallower slope is mainly due to the new Model Y changeover at Giga Berlin? Are sales in Norway a leading indicator for Europe? Maybe they front-loaded deliveries in Norway?
@tavi_chocochip@piloly Just look at the changes in the slope of the curve. The data you’re looking for is displayed; just take the difference between consecutive quarters and plot it.
David Friedberg Destroys the House Spending Bill: "Americans should be ashamed."
"If you are an American, you should feel shame that your elected officials are proposing that this is the bill that gets passed."
"Absolute disgraziad."
"That we vaporize this much money, that we put ourselves this much further in debt, that we do not treat the situation as the fiscal emergency that it is."
" We are now burning an additional $2.5T a year adding to our debt load."
"We are in a fiscal crisis and we're not willing to admit it."
" And I've said this from day one that DOGE can only do so much. And clearly that's the case where they're now talking about sub $300B a year in potential annual savings from DOGE action."
" At the end of the day, Congress needs to take action and this bill from Congress doesn't take much action."
During our 2025 Predictions Show in early January, Friedberg created a market on whether the US national debt would exceed $38T in 2025.
According to Polymarket, there is now an 80% chance that the debt WILL exceed $38T this year.
