    There’s a saying, " never attribute to malice what is easily explained by incompetence".

    But we’re quickly reaching the point where it’s no longer easily explained incompetence. Elon is either the most incompetent person in the known universe, which is saying a lot, or he’s doing this on purpose for some reason.

    I’m not into conspiracies, but it’s starting to make more sense if he’s actively trying to tank the stock.

      There’s no stock to tank. You could argue that he’s trying to tank the company, but there are easier ways to do that.

          There’s no stock or similar security, so the SEC doesn’t care at all. Could be a plausible deniability thing, I just think it’s more likely that he really is that dumb, given the stories about Tesla/SpaceX having teams that basically existed just to control him.
