Cathie Wood taking her first Unsupervised @Tesla Robotaxi ride in Austin, Texas.
"The fact that I was talking to you the whole time and didn't pay any attention to the ride itself means that I think it's completely safe; I'm excited for Tesla. I'm excited for Tesla shareholders. I do think now, this slowly, slowly, slowly is moving into all at once."

The Tesla Cybercab is ~3.4 times more efficient than a Waymo I-PACE.
The Cybercab is built from the ground up as a Robotaxi. The Waymo is a retrofitted platform with a sensor suite that adds excess weight, drag, and constant compute/sensor power draw.
Here's the announcement that the Ontario, Canada Teachers' Pension Plan made in 2019 when they invested $300M into @SpaceX, which at the target IPO valuation of $1.75T would be worth $11.6B:
"SpaceX is the worldโs leading private space launch provider, and we are excited to work with the company in the next phase of its growth as it rolls out its Starlink satellite network."
This would come out to about $33,500 for each of the Pension Plans' 346,000 members. Incredible.
Tesla FSD (Supervised) review:
"It drives, changes lanes, signals, passes slower traffic, and even parks itself with almost eerie confidence. Parking behind some random warehouse, a bank, or a fast-food joint? It handled all of it like a pro. No sudden surprises. No jerky corrections. No panicked interventions. It just quietly gets on with the task, like a well-trained but slightly smug valet.
It even backs itself into parking spaces, which is especially handy if you plan to plug in afterward, since that charging port is mounted at the rear.
I completely understand the hype surrounding @Teslaโs technology, because it is genuinely impressive. Tesla tends to dance to its own tune, yet it continues to provide compelling transportation alternatives for the masses."

That was a short-term loan when I ran out of money in 2008. He did not receive any equity for it.
Antonioโs ownership stems from absolute support, even when it looked like SpaceX would fail, and many investments over 2 decades.
One could not ask for a better friend. He is a great man.
๐จ Ron Baron on @SpaceX:
"If you've done the work and found a business that can grow tremendously, don't let other people talk you out of it. You can't own enough of your best idea."
@RonBaronAnalyst says that's exactly how he feels about SpaceX. He has encouraged friends, family, and executives from companies he invests in to own it as well.
His reason? He believes $SPCX has the potential to be a life-changing investment over the long run. ๐
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: "We are manufacturing in America because of President Trump. We're now manufacturing the most advanced chips for AI here in the U.S. All of this started with President Trump wanting to re-industrialize the U.S."
