It’s fun to laugh at the worst people taking Ls, until one realises that the insiders got to sell up early, leaving retail investors holding the bag, and that these involve not just eminently punchable Musk-idolising incel chuds or even FOXNews grandpas but ordinary working stiffs with pension funds and savings. Chances are everything went exactly to plan and even as Musk lost his very brief trillionaire status, he managed to cash out a lot of his virtual wealth.
No, thats just not true. At IPO date there were already many critical voices about the stock being way overvalued for what they charge at IPO. "Insiders" means there was info that was withheld or the public didn't know about. Anyone who bought this stock at IPO asking price was just foolish enough to buy into the hype.
The planet is too fucked for me to care about dumb people's money.
