Sold the last of TSLA, purchased in 2013. Of the original block, I have sold 12 times over 12 years, each sale has had an annualized return around 35% (high 51, low 29). Fundamentally, I still think it's a good company, they just have to get rid of "The Distraction."

Elon has lost $104B in TSLA valuation since Inauguration Day. Wouldn't it have been more economical just to "suck it up" and pay taxes?
Ironically, $105B is the claimed net savings of DOGE

25 years ago, I felt that my generation (GenX), was doing something great for the world. We were the main drivers of the tech boom, creating new and innovative products, and inspiring a feeling of hope.
Today, it seems that we are nothing better than the worst we saw in the Boomers. What happened?

I guess turning America into a “sh!th*le country” IS one way to solve the immigration crisis.
