Musk totally screwed the pooch and it’s specifically because their stock is probably going to leave a large smoking hole in the ground unless he could swing a privatization with a big money source and get out from under it while it still held a decent percentage of its peak value.

He had to have had a few in him to tweet that because that kind of statement creates a self perpetuating feedback loop. The price will drop from holders bailing and the potential buyer will see that and hold out for a lower price. It’s bad enough if your just having some doldrums/crappy quarters, but it’s death if you firehose money consistently.

How do you think this will affect Elon Musk's SPACEX Rocket Company?

It is so strange this all happens right at the same time President Trump is coming out with the new SPACE FORCE, sixth branch of the US Military.

Isn't this a stunning photo?
