Elon Musk trolls Tesla short sellers and SEC anew as TSLA hits new highs

Tesla CEO Elon Musk was in a good and lively mood on Thursday following the launch of the company’s Q2 2020 vehicle production and delivery record. Together with Tesla reaching new all time highs and breaking $1,200 per share, Musk opted to do something he has not done in some time: he chose to do a little push towards Tesla’s dedicated short vendors, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

Musk’s series of tweets on Thursday were varied, with the CEO reacting to some Twitter user that noted TSLA inventory ’s current increase owing to its Q2 results is a “tsunami of hurt” for small sellers. Musk, for his part, noted that he “tried to frighten them” before adopting a milder tone by phoning The Royal Teens’ Short Shorts a “good tune. ” Musk followed this up playfully remarking that “vendors of moderate height or above are alright ” amidst Tesla’s muster.

With burns off against TSLA shorts procured, Musk then altered his push towards the SEC, urging his followers to place their particular interpretation of the acronym, assuming the “E” in the midst stands of “Elon’s.” This motivated equally lively responses for example “Sell Elon’s Cars” & “Savage Elon’s Contempt& ” and serious warnings from TSLA bulls like Gerber Kawasaki CEO Ross Gerber, that remarked such tweets were “dangerous. ” Musk admitted that, but he noted the tweets were quite satisfying.

Obviously, no dialog about Tesla’s brief vendors with Elon Musk would be complete without literal shorts coming to the film. This came in the form of Musk saying that Tesla will soon be making “magnificent short shorts in satin with gold trim. ” He noted that Tesla will be sending a number of the short shorts to the “Shortseller Enrichment Commission” & to “relaxation them. ” That said, Musk noted that flame beams on the Tesla shorts will be a little much. 

Will send some into the Shortseller Enrichment Commission to ease them through those difficult times

I worried we won’t be taken seriously in case our shorts have surfaced 🤣🤣

Inasmuch as Elon Musk’s Twitter storm could offend Tesla’s critics, the CEO did exhibit some of his humor. This came reminding Musk he himself wore short shorts back in his days at Pretoria, as evidenced from 1983 by means of a course film. In it, a young Musk may be seen standing among his classmates, proudly donning some shorts himself. For this, Musk sheepishly admitted that ultimately, he likes short shorts. “Busted! I covertly (adore ) short shorts,” Musk composed. 

Not bad

Tesla’s next quarter results, which triggered the company’s stock past the $1,200 mark on Thursday, ultimately crushed the TSLA brief seller narrative that the company has a demand issue. As noted by Loup Ventures Managing Partner Gene Munster, Tesla’s Q2 deliveries emphasized the widening gap between the car maker and conventional automakers like GM, FCA, along with Toyota, all which were hit hard by the continuing pandemic. 

Disclosure: I don’t have any possession in shares of TSLA and don’t have any plans to commence some positions.
