So what is your point about the 30% drop? Your drive-by post gives no reason, no context just thing X happened.

Highlighting that Tesla was the worst performing stock in the S&P 500 in Q1. That doesn't need any qualification or context, it's a factual statement, and it's relevant to a thread about Tesla business news.

She has a net worth of $250 million that doesn't happen by being wrong "so many times".

was thinking about tsla stock today and watching doug demuro's manic review of the cybertruck.

i think tesla can help the stock a lot if they can over delivery on ct production to fill more back orders than expected.

How you think this invalidates her net worth is beyond me.

I was actually completely surprised by the "excitement" of his review. I thought he would hate it

Doug HATES Tesla, Tesla owners and Elon go to X if you want to see proof.

He didn't hate the Cyber Truck. I haven't seen him that excited in some time. He actually had a big smile on his face as he drove it. He even explained why his Raptor owning neighbors hate it, which I thought was hilarious. To me it's ugly as hell, is shaped like it was designed in/for an 80's video game, but I'm sure if I drove it, I would have a big smile on my face as well

He hates every Tesla but does his best to hide it. Here's some context: Doug says he refuses to read any post on X from paying subscribers, calls them Elon sycophants. That is a deranged view, irrational hatred.

She sucks at stock prediction if she cannot even beat the stock index, that's his point.

There's a difference between not liking Elon as a person, and hating Tesla. Not the same thing in a lot cases. Many of my Tesla owning friends are not Elon fans, many even tell me they don't like him, yet they would buy another Tesla in a heartbeat. We have to seperate the two. Personally, I don't really care about Doug's feelings towards Elon, X or even Tesla. I'm not really a fan of his reviews in general, occasionally I'll find some of his reviews interesting, like this one
