I made this point a couple of days ago in a conversation with an AI entrepreneur. He told me that I am clueless and quit the conversation, almost being rude.

The problem may be that these people believe autonomous driving is a solved problem and autonomous cars are delivering their promise.

Seriously guys. Put options are too expensive these days.

How are you supposed to „hedge“ at these prices?

I bet they‘ll add an optional 2nd row in the trunk. Will be as comfortable as the 3rd row in Model X.

Another example is the ban of ozone-depleting substances such as CFCs and HCFCs in the 80s to prevent further damage to the ozone layer.

In hindsight, a fantastic success!

1. Buy shitco stonks at any price
2. Believe in stupidity of people
3. Sell shitco stonks to greater fool at higher price

➡️ Solid investment theory.
➡️ Straight face.

I personally would prefer to sell $TSLA... but I don't own any stock, and nobody with a sane mind does own $TSLA at these valuations.

„Higher for longer“

Ras Funk @rasfunk.bsky.social · 8d

At the current valuation, investors don‘t expect $TSLA to have anything in 2026.

That‘s a difference.

At this point we have to assume that people are aware of the risks and are willing to wager their lives just to publicly demonstrate their support for fascist billionaires.
