Selling Euphoria and Buying Panic Since 1907

@TicTocTick To be grateful that I am trading the greatest bull market in history. Maybe in 2020 I will short the greatest bear market in history or else I will go bankrupt a 4th time.

A SpaceX intern once described eating lunch next to Elon Musk in the company cafeteria.

The intern said Elon sat down at a regular table with a regular tray of food. No entourage. No reserved section. He sat next to two junior engineers who were clearly terrified. One of them was explaining a problem with a valve component to the other.

Elon listened without introducing himself or interrupting. After about three minutes he turned to the engineer and said "have you tried running it at a lower pressure gradient first." The engineer stared at him. Then realized the CEO of the company had just casually solved a problem his team had been stuck on for a week.

The intern said what happened next was the part that surprised him. Elon didn't leave. Didn't check his phone. He spent the next twenty minutes asking the engineers questions about their work. Not CEO questions about timelines and budgets. Engineering questions about fluid dynamics and material stress tolerances. He was genuinely curious. The cafeteria conversation was indistinguishable from a technical review.

The intern said he understood in that moment why people work 80-hour weeks for this man. Not because he's inspiring. Not because he pays well. Because he's the only CEO in the world who sits in the cafeteria and solves your engineering problem between bites of a burrito.

People follow leaders who are above them. People worship leaders who sit next to them and prove they understand the work better than the people doing it.

Someone close to the President ought to tell him the truth. Elon isn’t mad about the EV mandate. He’s upset about $5 trillion being added to the federal debt in next 2 years.

Of all the people close to him, I would expect VP Vance to understand this. He should make sure the President has his facts straight.

@heydave7 What the heck was the point of @DOGE if he’s just going to increase the debt by $5 trillion??

[Dave Lee @heydave7]

I would be livid if I was Elon. Imagine you go all-in, receive tons of death threats, your companies are under fire, but you keep your head on the mission to cut costs thinking you’re doing your part to save our country. You bring in the best and brightest young minds, convincing them even though they get death threats too. You make big progress, toiling every day, 16+ hour work days, never complaining. You convince yourself it’s worth it because you love the country and want a better future. Then, all your work is thrown out the window by some spending bill that increases the deficit and raises the debt ceiling by $5 trillion. And then you find out in 2 years they are going to need to raise the debt ceiling again because $5 trillion is going to be added to the federal debt over the next 2 years. Then the President says you’re “off the rails” and a “train wreck”. And you have to bite your tongue because how do you reply to that. You can’t make up this stuff.

This is a PHENOMENAL chart.

Say what you will but the facts are Google is miles (no pun intended) ahead of $TSLA.

Waymo is giving massive amounts of driverless rides now while other “hope to” someday

@TicTocTick $300 is great but when $600 sir?

[Larry Livingston @BoyPlunger_]

@PeterSchiff Peter Schiff’s claim that there is no law requiring income tax stems from a narrow, discredited interpretation of constitutional and tax law.

[Larry Livingston @BoyPlunger_]

@DivesTech Same argument applies to $TSLA except you panicked on that one.

[Larry Livingston @BoyPlunger_]

Peter taking a victory lap. You know what that means $btc

[Peter Schiff @PeterSchiff]

Attention @saylor, now that Bitcoin is below $80K, if you want to prevent it from crashing below your average cost of $68K, you had better back up the truck with borrowed money today and go all in.
