Tesla's Meltdown Shorts Cash In Big Time But Will Elon Have The Last Laugh!

Axe's Take: The Bloodsport on Wall Street

Alright let's get one thing straight. I've seen bloodbaths on Wall Street before but this Tesla situation? This is Shakespearean tragedy meets a tech bro's wet dream. Shorts are feasting raking in a cool $11.5 billion this year alone. Makes you almost feel bad for Musk... almost. Remember though 'What's the point of having f k you money if you can't say f k you?' And Elon well he's got a whole lotta 'f k you' money. This ain't over 'til the fat lady sings and knowing Musk she's probably a cyborg opera singer he designed himself.

Trump Tariffs and Tesla: A Toxic Cocktail

So Trump's back wielding tariffs like a medieval broadsword. Turns out those tariffs are hitting Tesla where it hurts—their bottom line. Parts and materials suddenly more expensive. Protests erupting across the U.S. and Europe. It's a perfect storm of bad PR and even worse financials. Makes you wonder if Musk spent too much time cozying up to the wrong political circus. In my world you hedge your bets. Always. Never put all your eggs in one basket especially when that basket's being carried by a guy who's one tweet away from starting World War III.

The Robotaxi Race: Tesla's Got a Flat Tire

Robotaxis? Musk promised the moon and all we're seeing is a stalled out rocket. Waymo's eating Tesla's lunch in the driverless car market. A market which by the way is going to make the early Internet days look like a lemonade stand. Tesla promises a launch in Austin? Please. That's like me promising to go vegan. Sounds good in theory but ain't gonna happen. You know what I say 'Money talks bullshit walks!' And right now Waymo's money is doing a tango while Tesla's is tripping over its own feet.

Nvidia's Not Immune: Tech's Getting Clobbered

Tesla's not alone in this misery parade. Nvidia's getting hammered too. Down 28% and the shorts are making bank. But here's the thing: Nvidia is a goddamned arms dealer in the AI gold rush. They sell shovels to everyone. They will bounce back and so will Tesla never underestimate Elon and his relentless ambition just because you lost the battle doesn't mean you lose the war! Remember to 'keep your friends close but your enemies closer.'

Musk vs. The Shorts: A Saga of Epic Proportions

Musk's got a history with the shorts. A long bloody and often hilarious history. Red satin shorts anyone? That was classic Musk trolling. And David Einhorn? Getting trolled in public? Delicious. But let's be clear these shorts aren't exactly choir boys. They're predators circling the wounded. But and this is a big but Musk has a habit of proving everyone wrong. He’s a disruptor an innovator and if you listen to the noise 'You're gonna miss the signal!'

Axe's Final Play: Is Tesla a Buy?

So the million dollar question: Is Tesla a buy? Look I don't give investment advice but I'll say this: Volatility creates opportunity. And this Tesla situation is dripping with volatility. Do your homework understand the risks and then decide if you want to play. Me? I'm always looking for an edge. And sometimes the biggest edge is betting against the crowd. Just remember 'A good poker face is the key to any game my friend.'
