Do you believe you can separate the two? If Musk stepped away from Tesla today, the stock would plunge today. It is a cult stock.
TSLA, like bitcoin, was a tremendously successful pump and dump.
Soon TSLA and many of the terrible companies that rode its covid coattails, e.g. PLUG will soon return to pennystockdom.
No telling when a short squeeze rally may materialize, but I believe that TSLA is an incredible short sale candidate, and it will be trading close to $5/share at some point in 2023-24.
As for Musk, he ought to worry more about his own health. The man is built like a deep breath. His torso is obviously filled to overflowing with dangerous visceral fat. Not sure which lasts longer at this point, a head of iceberg lettuce or Elon Musk.
TSLA stock will outlive them both, though not necessarily by much. If there is value to Tesla it will eventually be owned by a GM or a Ford and just be one of their in-house brands, like Lincoln or Buick and GMC.
