If the stocks are such a bargain right now, shouldn't Trump buy up all the shares? With his "billions?"

Howie Lutnik hawking Tesla stock? Hmmmmmm ...
Lutnick may have stood to gain personally from his appearance, as well: the financial firm he founded, Cantor Fitzgerald, had nearly $300 million in Tesla shares on its books as of the end of last year, according to recent filing. "Reports and subsequent speculation regarding significant proprietary positions by our firm were completely false," a Cantor Fitzgerald spokeswoman said after this article was published. "These filings arose from either hedging customer transactions or routine market making activity." Lutnick told lawmakers during his Jan. 29 confirmation hearing that he would sell all of his holdings within 90 days of that date. The document that would accompany such a divestiture doesn't yet appear on the U.S. Office of Government Ethics website. Lutnick vowed in the ethics agreement he submitted during his nomination that he wouldn't "participate personally and substantially in any particular matter" that could impact Cantor Fitzgerald's finances. www.barrons.com

TSLA closed today, March 21, at $248.71, which is a bit of a rally for the week, but still down 38.4% YTD. 131MM shares traded today, and much of that is either because of the end of the quarterly 'triple witching' hour when futures, options and other derivative contracts expire, or purchases from the stupid money. Granted, TSLA has performed well over the past two years, but many buyers are trying to catch a falling knife. Comments about the company's financial statements by the Financial Times, and concerns about world-wide sales drops will cause long-lasting problems with the share price. TSLA has burned down a portion of its finished goods inventory, but that came from discounting. 2025Q1 sales are projected to be down 11% from the most recent quarter, and non-fanboy investors will notice. More pain may be on the way...
