It is said that, “Politics makes strange bedfellows.” And that is certainly true when you think of the relationship between Donald Trump and Elan Musk. Who would have thunk the world’s richest man, who became rich making electric vehicles, would have any interest in delving into the middle of American politics with Donald Trump. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of rich folk who involve themselves into politics. But none so much as Elan Musk as to being so celebrity driven as he.
Elan Mush is making himself the face of Trump’s 2nd term and that may not be such a good thing. People are beginning to dislike Trump’s policies and Elan Musk. Elan Musk is a seller of goods and services and people buy from people they like. People are beginning to dislike Elan and it is showing in Tesla’s stock price. From February 5, 2025 until today, March 5, 2025, Tesla stock has declined almost 30%. Approximately a $100 per share loss. That’s a big drop. Or a big gain if you shorted Tesla stock from February 5, 2025 until now.
Elan Musk is risking Tesla’s stock price to be apart of DOGE. But the question is will this slide continue? If I had disposable cash to put on a stock I would definitely start shorting Tesla. I’m not telling anyone else to do this but it’s what I would do. You make up your own mind.
