The binary dialogue is becoming nuanced. Hurray! Zuckerberg is still a control freak.

And it was great that he said that.

He probably shouldn’t have said his stock was overpriced though.

And a few other really kooky things this past month.

THIS ONE was spot on.

The other ones make me think a shrink might be in order in the short term at least.

Stockholders are not happy with him.

I’d DIE if the head of a company who’s stock I owned said i was overpriced!!

Honesty is great up to a point!!

I do not typically agree with this fraudster, but on this issue... "He's spot on".

I wonder how the liberal tech world will treat Elon Musk after this statement.

The consider him a tech god and hang on his every word.

Now that he’s crossed over the line, will he be sacrificed in the name of Social Justice

He's correct. The proper actions should following this reasoning:

Yep. And Gates is the same, damn animal.

Zuck also has a strange fascination with Augustus.

So?

No one is forced to buy it!

They already hate him, but whether you love him or hate him, he’s a genius and, yes, he probably does just want freedom.

Geniuses can only flourish in freedom.

So is a silly answer.

You know there are a tremendous number of current holders.

If you don’t understand that basic tenet of stocks and the head of a company’s obligation to them, you probably shouldn’t discuss the topic.

Have a good one.

If I just had some cash, I could short it based on that statement.

I own stock in Tesla, but I'm not about to die. Still made money (on paper). What I suspect, is that he wants to do stock buy-backs. When the company was struggling, they sought buyers of stock to keep the company afloat. Now that they're making profits, they anticipate rapid growth and value of the company. Makes sense to buy back stock from the public. If this is what he intends, he could get in trouble. Of course his lawyers will protect him. I'm holding for the long term, and anticipate huge profits some years down the road (maybe within 10).

Well I’m emotional. There’s a shock :)

And yes it IS illegal to drive your own price down.

But it’s not an easy thing to prove.

Still, saying your own stock is overpriced will raise eyebrows.

Elon Musk was the first to start touting HCQ as a treatment.
