FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

Elon Musk is absolutely losing it and he

0:02

needs to shut the f up actually having a

0:05

new CEO for Tesla might not be that bad

0:09

since that was a rumor that was

0:10

circulating last week part of me is

0:12

starting to actually like the idea

0:14

because I think Elon Musk has become a

0:16

little bit unhinged in this video we're

0:19

going to talk about that and how it's

0:20

affecting Tesla's stock given that the

0:22

stock is down over four percent today

0:24

while the NASDAQ is flat now this could

0:27

be due to substantial tax loss

0:28

harvesting because Tesla has performed

0:30

very badly this year not due to

0:33

fundamentals at all the fundamentals of

0:35

a Slowdown in China should represent a

0:37

nominal impact to the fundamentals of

0:39

Tesla stock especially since we can

0:40

export a good chunk of vehicles not sold

0:42

in China and of course we can make other

0:44

adjustments to ensure that as many

0:47

vehicles Tesla produces are actually

0:49

sold whether those are to rental car

0:50

companies or shipped to Europe or to the

0:53

United States or other parts of Asia or

0:55

otherwise the demand being fulfilled

0:58

should not be the issue the real issue

1:02

that is dragging Tesla stock down is

1:05

very simple it's that Elon Musk bought

1:07

Twitter using Tesla stock Elon Musk has

1:11

openly said that he finances Twitter

1:14

losses with Tesla stock Elon Musk has

1:18

openly told us on earnings calls oh

1:20

Tesla one day will be worth as much as

1:22

apple and Saudi aramco combined but then

1:24

sold 20 billion dollars worth of Tesla

1:27

right after those comments

1:29

seems a little Saucy something that

1:31

isn't really something that we want to

1:33

see a long-term supporter of Tesla stock

1:36

do now look we understand it's okay for

1:38

entrepreneurs to have their own

1:39

Ambitions but the Twitter ambition is a

1:42

massive overhang on Tesla stock because

1:45

it's essentially the piggy bank the more

1:47

volatile issues are at Twitter the more

1:50

Tesla stock suffers because the

1:52

expectation is that fewer and fewer

1:54

advertisers will actually be able to go

1:55

to the Twitter platform leading to a

1:58

greater risk of losses at Twitter and a

2:01

greater risk of losses have at Twitter

2:02

potentially means Elon Musk selling more

2:04

stock it was just last week that Elon

2:06

Musk apparently in discussions rumored

2:08

and reported by Bloomberg was in talks

2:10

to potentially margin uh or I should say

2:13

refinance up to 13 billion dollars of

2:15

Twitter debt using his stocks as a

2:19

margin collateral is Tesla stock that is

2:21

to lower the interest expense at Twitter

2:24

so if you're a Tesla investor you are

2:27

extremely righteous to be frustrated

2:30

over Elon musk's Twitter acquisition

2:32

however I do have confidence that Elon

2:35

Musk will rightfully clean up uh Twitter

2:38

uh via its expenses and and I believe at

2:41

some point it will become profitable

2:43

that is of course unless Elon Musk walks

2:45

off of well a cliff which seems to be

2:48

what he's doing right now with his

2:50

polarizingness Elon Musk has always been

2:52

someone who's been cheered always been

2:55

someone who's been respected by the vast

2:58

majority of people yet unfortunately

3:00

when Elon Musk walked out onto stage in

3:02

San Francisco at the Dave Chappelle Show

3:05

just recently

3:06

it sounded like there were more booze

3:08

than cheers even though Elon Musk

3:10

suggests that nah 90 were cheers and 10

3:12

were booze it was just the loud extreme

3:14

lefties

3:16

it sounded like there were a lot of

3:17

booths and reportedly according to

3:19

Breaking points the Twitter account that

3:22

posted the video of Elon Musk getting

3:24

booed

3:25

is now deleted from Twitter which almost

3:28

seems to stand directly in contrast to

3:31

Elon musk's Free Speech uh protocols at

3:33

Twitter if that is what happened maybe

3:35

that's not what happened nobody knows

3:37

maybe somebody created a burner account

3:38

and deleted it to try to set that sort

3:40

of thesis up right entirely possible

3:42

nobody knows but here's the reality

3:45

Elon Musk is an executive he needs to

3:48

behave like an executive we know he's

3:51

had issues with this before that's why

3:52

he's gotten in trouble from the SEC you

3:54

listen when you are under somebody

3:56

else's institutions like you are a

3:58

publicly listed company under the

4:01

jurisdiction of the SEC you need to

4:03

respect the jurisdiction you have to

4:05

respect the law enforcement of uh of of

4:09

of Securities and that is the SEC and

4:12

Elon Musk has been fined for

4:13

disrespecting them he's publicly

4:15

ridiculed them just trying to do their

4:18

jobs look if it look if you mess up and

4:20

you make a mistake it's okay to be

4:22

frustrated but at some point you also

4:24

have to realize that if you left up you

4:25

have to up you know people go through

4:27

those realizations I go through those

4:28

realizations and I realize like look you

4:30

know if you have up you break the rules

4:31

and get in trouble that's just the way

4:32

it works it's just the way it works

4:35

but the problem is not so much elon's

4:38

disrespect now for the SEC it's his

4:40

disrespect for people's political

4:41

beliefs see something that you have to

4:43

remember is Democrats are roughly twice

4:45

as likely to buy an electric vehicle as

4:47

Republicans and in my opinion your goal

4:50

as as a regular human being in society

4:53

should be to try to appeal to 80 of

4:57

perspectives right you you don't really

5:00

in my opinion need to appeal to the far

5:02

left or the far right

5:03

because I actually think those fringes

5:06

are not very normal and just by the

5:08

definition of a bell curve with 80 in

5:11

the middle and 10 on each side normal

5:13

would be defined as what's in the middle

5:15

I really consider myself substantial in

5:18

the middle person politically there are

5:19

things on the left I like there are

5:21

things on the right I like you could

5:22

look at my 20-point plan when I ran for

5:23

governor in California I called myself a

5:25

JFK Democrat I stand for common things

5:27

that I think we can all agree on

5:29

financial education in schools solve

5:31

homelessness build more housing so we

5:33

don't have a housing affordability

5:34

problem these are these are normal

5:36

things we should all stand for of course

5:37

we might disagree with how to handle

5:39

those things but I did not run a

5:41

campaign on the ideology that I need to

5:44

go out and make sure people stop using

5:46

pronouns or uh you know try to go kill

5:49

wokeism or whatever like if you if you

5:52

know one side says well go woke go broke

5:54

and the other side wants to go well I I

5:56

don't care about the extremes I care

5:58

about the middle and if I'm an executive

5:59

of a company that is trying to attract

6:01

advertisers even and though I want to

6:05

promote free speech I want other people

6:07

around me to have Free Speech but I

6:10

wouldn't want to say things that I might

6:13

think but freely say those things if I'm

6:15

actually trying to attract advertisers

6:17

nobody's taking away your speech but if

6:19

you say things that are stupid and

6:21

advertisers pull out now you're just

6:22

conducting bad business so I want to be

6:25

very clear about that some people when

6:26

they hear me say Elon should shut the f

6:28

up they think Elon should be silenced

6:30

it's not what I'm saying like let other

6:32

people say the crazy extreme things that

6:34

you want to say give this stuff to

6:35

journalists and let them say it right

6:37

like that's okay but when when you are

6:39

an executive trying to attract

6:40

advertisers you're just conducting like

6:43

yes you're using your free speech that's

6:44

fine I I'm totally okay Elon Musk with

6:47

you having those opinions but when you

6:50

shout them out at the world you're fine

6:52

using your free speech that's okay but

6:54

you're making a terrible business

6:55

decision for Twitter leading people to

6:58

pressure advertisers to cancel there are

7:01

tweets with tens to hundreds of

7:03

thousands thousands of replies of

7:05

individuals tagging companies like

7:07

T-Mobile going T-Mobile you see what

7:09

elon's doing you guys are advertising on

7:11

the platform why are you still

7:12

advertising people are pressuring

7:14

writing to to T-Mobile stop advertising

7:17

on Twitter

7:18

that happens at scale it's such a stupid

7:20

business decision because now Elon Musk

7:23

you are burning people who gave you the

7:25

wealth you have your investors you're

7:28

burning people who are trusting you in

7:30

Twitter because you're screwing

7:32

advertising potentials and you're

7:34

burning people who trusted you would

7:36

potentially still trust you investing in

7:37

Tesla by being a loose cannon

7:40

I tweeted the other day that I think

7:42

Donald Trump is actually on Twitter he's

7:44

just on Twitter under Elon musk's

7:45

profile because he's being very divisive

7:47

but Donald Trump made money from being

7:49

divisive the business decision was the

7:51

more divisive you are the more money you

7:53

get from your Republican base for Elon

7:55

Musk it doesn't work that way the more

7:57

divisive you are the more advertisers

7:59

you lose because what advertisers want

8:01

to attract well if you're my pillow

8:02

maybe you want to attract the right but

8:04

if you're 80 advertisers you want to

8:06

advertise to 80 of people where the bulk

8:08

of people are you're pissing people off

8:10

it's frustrating so look it's a buying

8:15

opportunity if you are somebody who says

8:17

look the fundamentals of Tesla sound

8:19

don't worry about this this is just you

8:21

know short-term drama or whatever great

8:23

that's a wonderful mindset to have

8:25

that's phenomenal and I agree I don't

8:27

think the fundamentals for Tesla have

8:29

changed at all

8:30

but you do have a loose cannon running

8:32

the company now on Twitter uh and that's

8:34

bad let's go through some examples this

8:36

is okay right de-platforming the

8:37

president continued right the Twitter

8:38

files I support this you're letting

8:40

journalists share the story and you're

8:43

bringing attention to it I'm okay with

8:45

you bringing attention to political

8:46

problems I'm okay with this here migrant

8:48

Caravan uh passing into El Paso or

8:50

whatever Elon Musk are playing wow

8:52

that's okay great bring attention to

8:55

these issues totally fine this is

8:57

ridiculous this is stupid the branch

8:59

covidians are upset okay so Branch

9:01

covidian used to be somebody who was

9:03

like

9:04

so the old school Branch covidian was

9:06

like super anti-vaxx and like super

9:08

anti-everything right now a branch

9:10

covidian is somebody who's considered

9:12

somebody who's like Pro lockdown uh so

9:14

the definition has kind of changed a

9:15

little bit so really what he's saying

9:16

here is like oh no the far left you so

9:18

seem to have upset them uh and it's just

9:22

not good because now he's getting into

9:24

these political discussions like when

9:26

people talk about vaccines he says oh

9:28

somehow the nation of Sweden is fine

9:29

well so he's sending this implication

9:31

that oh okay well if if Sweden is fine

9:34

maybe vaccines don't work in the context

9:37

of his thread which in our effort to

9:39

save time here I'm not going through all

9:40

of it and he's not wrong I mean Sweden

9:42

to some degree has a substantially lower

9:45

excess death rate than other uh

9:48

countries it's in fact in one of the top

9:49

two right next to New Zealand but that's

9:51

not necessarily just because uh oh

9:54

vaccines don't work in fact Sweden is

9:57

substantially more vaccinated than we

9:59

are their vaccination rate is about four

10:00

to five percent higher than us not only

10:02

that they deem to be based on on studies

10:05

that are still being conducted now I

10:06

mean it'll take probably decades before

10:07

we know the true reason why Sweden is

10:09

doing so well but the expectation is

10:11

that Sweden is actually really good at

10:13

keeping people vaccinated who are in

10:15

those high risk groups whereas the U.S

10:18

kind of had this all right everybody get

10:19

vaccinated and now people are kind of

10:21

dropping off they haven't gotten their

10:22

boosters or whatever especially the

10:23

high-risk groups so you potentially have

10:25

a higher mortality rate in the United

10:27

States if you look at the bottom here in

10:29

the United States you could see the 10

10:31

least vaccinated states in the United

10:32

States have an excess death rate in

10:35

excess of I believe it's 193 yeah in

10:37

excess of 193 excess deaths per hundred

10:40

thousand the 10 most vaccinated states

10:44

in the United States are somewhere

10:46

around

10:47

63 excess deaths per 100 000 and that is

10:52

in line with Europe with the exception

10:54

of Sweden which sits at about 32.4

10:57

excess deaths per 100 000 which is

10:59

really good but when you actually look

11:01

at doses per person or per um this is

11:05

doses per 100 people Sweden has about 20

11:08

percent more doses out per 100 people on

11:11

average than the United States and it's

11:12

possible that those doses are going more

11:15

directly to the vulnerable populations

11:17

you know your 60 70 80 plus

11:19

uh and so I think the Health Care system

11:21

has substantial advantages in Sweden but

11:23

it doesn't mean that they're anti-vaxx

11:25

it just means that they're prioritizing

11:26

people who are most likely to benefit

11:28

from the vaccine rather than be then be

11:30

injured right

11:31

uh like anyway so so the point is like

11:35

you see how long it just made me it took

11:37

me to make that point it's there's so

11:39

much more detail that I just gave no

11:40

matter what side of the vaccine debate

11:42

you're on uh and you know I'm not I

11:44

don't think people should be forced to

11:45

take the vaccine I do think if you're

11:47

over 70 80 it's probably a good idea

11:50

like there's probably more risk of you

11:52

not taking it when you're over that age

11:53

but I'm not a doctor so I don't want to

11:54

impose that opinion that's just maybe

11:56

that's the mainstream opinion okay I I

11:58

don't know again but my point here is

12:00

look at how much information I just gave

12:04

to at least make an argument versus how

12:07

limited this is somehow the nation is

12:09

like this just promotes cynicism and

12:12

that's not good or this my pronouns are

12:15

prosecute fauci and the truth resonates

12:17

this is my my uh Donald Trump is on

12:19

Twitter he's just using elon's profile

12:21

tweet

12:22

uh here he is responding to uh uh to

12:25

unhinged leftists or whatever note the

12:28

thing about prosecute Foundry okay so

12:30

this has to do with Wuhan uh fauci went

12:33

to Congress and told the national uh it

12:35

told Congress that the National

12:36

Institute of Health has not ever and

12:39

does not fund gain of function research

12:41

in Wuhan Wuhan is where the idea is that

12:45

the coronavirus was engineered and there

12:48

was a lab leak and that's how

12:49

coronavirus get out got out which is

12:50

potentially very credible that that is

12:52

what happened uh and uh the the idea

12:55

here is that gain a function research

12:58

basically makes a certain organisms more

13:02

effective so for example you could

13:04

enhance bacteria uh to to improve uh the

13:08

function of certain things you can

13:09

improve the function of insulin you can

13:11

uh you know alter an organism like a

13:14

virus and make it more uh contagious so

13:17

you could can study the the spread of of

13:20

contagious diseases like coronaviruses

13:22

remember uh the common cold is caused by

13:25

four different types of coronaviruses

13:27

human coronaviruses so coronaviruses are

13:29

very very very normal colds the the

13:32

covid-19 that we think of uh and then

13:35

the strains of that Delta Omicron and

13:36

that those are just more severe forms

13:39

right uh so yeah to some degree some

13:41

people actually have found in research

13:43

that if you had a cold and then you got

13:45

exposed to covid you could actually have

13:47

substantial immunity because there are

13:48

similarities in the cell body of the

13:51

common cold to covet very very

13:53

interesting but anyway

13:54

apparently then the National Institute

13:56

of Health later came out and said the

13:58

research we supported in China where

14:00

coronaviruses are prevalent sought to

14:02

understand the behavior of coronaviruses

14:03

circulating bats that have the potential

14:05

to cause widespread disease the body of

14:07

science produced by this research

14:09

demonstrates that bad coronaviruses bad

14:11

coronavirus sequences published from the

14:13

National Institute of Health supportive

14:15

were not SARS cov2 so in other words now

14:18

you have this kind of blurry thing where

14:19

it's like wait so the United States did

14:23

fund coronavirus research just not cov2

14:26

research like covid-19 research at Wuhan

14:29

this kind of makes it seem like fauci

14:31

didn't tell us the truth did he know I

14:34

mean he is the director of the

14:35

infectious diseases department at the NH

14:37

NIH or did he purposely like try to

14:40

loophole and evade that right anyway

14:41

that's just politics okay that stuff and

14:43

I'm not like forgiving each side here

14:45

I'm just saying like this kind of stuff

14:47

when so many people hate Foundry but so

14:50

many people respect him does enrage

14:53

certain people you know know and

14:55

especially if you start saying that like

14:57

here here's here's Scott Kelly an

14:59

astronaut replying going Elon please

15:00

don't Mock and promote hate towards

15:01

marginalized groups like lgbtq or or

15:04

people like fauci who whose motivation

15:06

has always been saving lives personally

15:08

I have a little bit of an optimistic

15:10

bias in people that I think people want

15:12

to do the best that they can with the

15:14

information they have available I do

15:15

think there are Crooks like sandbankment

15:17

freed uh but uh you know this is where

15:20

Elon responds and says no you know fauci

15:23

lied uh and uh that killed millions of

15:26

people not awesome and he's really

15:28

referring to the idea that well if

15:30

because fauci lied about the research we

15:33

funded covet killed millions of people

15:36

it's it's stretchy right like I I don't

15:39

know that you could say okay because

15:41

because he wasn't fully transparent

15:43

whether he knew or didn't he killed

15:45

millions of people right

15:47

uh and I know that's not exactly what

15:49

he's saying but that's the implication

15:50

here right it's just this is the kind of

15:52

extreme fringy stuff that yeah is a

15:55

discussion that's worth having we should

15:57

research all of this but should the CEO

15:59

of of Twitter be doing this no let you

16:03

know journalists and and other users of

16:04

Twitter and and uh professors should be

16:07

studying this or or you and me we should

16:09

research and try to share our opinions

16:10

on this but somebody who's trying to

16:12

attract advertisers is just making a bad

16:15

business decision fighting uh you know

16:18

woke is um or trying to fight covid uh

16:21

information or whatever right uh you

16:24

know and then you get into these debates

16:25

about oh are pronouns mocking people or

16:28

not uh and you know Elon picks out the

16:31

people who support him and ignores the

16:32

people who don't support him the point

16:34

is it's fine if you want to do this but

16:37

when you're trying to attract

16:37

advertisers don't be surprised if

16:39

advertisers leave it's that simple and

16:41

if advertisers leave Twitter does worse

16:43

and therefore Tesla uh stock potentially

16:46

goes down more because Elon has to sell

16:48

more to find Twitter and this drama and

16:49

it's just like

16:51

again it's okay in my opinion to bring

16:53

attention to this I'm never suggesting

16:55

anybody should be silenced

16:57

but Elon should chill the F out a little

17:00

bit uh it's just not fair to the people
