Elon Musk Responds to Calls He Should Step Down as Tesla CEO – Musk Thanks a Tesla Investor Who Says He’ll Sell 75% of His Tesla Shares if Elon Steps Down

75% of what? Like 5 shares or 100,000 shares? 🤷‍♂️

I can respect Elon’s past business accomplishments - there are many. But his current mindset and endeavors are clearly not conducive to Tesla’s future. New leadership is sometimes a necessary step that a company must take. This is not without precedent in the corporate world. It is time for a breath of fresh air from the stagnant funk that the employees, owners, and investors are choking on.

Why is a guy who calls shuttle launch pads "Super Heavy Boosters" for his X ships in charge of anything beyond selecting the employee meal options for the day? When I read that news, the world seemed a little more...sane.

He needs go. In any other company, he would be long gone by now. Only other option is to get out of politics and focus on the company. The damage though he has caused is probably unrecoverable with him as leader. You can’t grow a company if half of the world is against your product!

Anyone that has been in Tesla knows this is Elon. Smh

If ANY other CEO did this kind of damage to their brand and sales, they would be fired in a heartbeat. Musk should be no different. With the exception of Tesla cult followers, everybody realizes that Musk needs to leave to stop the bleeding of the wounds that he inflicted on the company. Musk's enemies could not have done worse damage to Tesla than he has done himself. Musk should leave DOGE and divest his shares in Tesla so that Tesla can recover and thrive again.

Musk needs to resign after he destroyed peoples life without a blink of an eye. He seemed to have taken a thrill to do that especially with this chainsaw.

I already did sell 95% of my TSLA stock. A rocket can only go up for so long before it comes down to earth. It was a good run from $12 to $360. Thanks Elon, but when you do a obvious and intentional Natzi salute and then chainsaw the federal workforce for your own legal benefit, I can't support that. Tesla has betrayed there original goal of spurring EV adoption and has turned into a vanity project and cash cow of Elon's discretion.

Musk needs to step down from Tesla.

Elon, what you’ve done with Tesla is extraordinary and the future of Tesla is exciting and highly anticipated for stock owners. Great job! However, the people who are asking that you step down are those who have invested in Tesla as an income vehicle that has been shattered due to your political engagement. Those who are more financially stable can ride this turbulence longer than that person who perhaps has been trading options or similar trades for their additional income. We all know stocks fluctuate due to several market swings, but this Tesla turbulence was primarily inflicted by leadership not markets, so it is more of a plea for stability more so than it is a call for you to step down.Your leadership is what got Tesla here, and it will be your great leadership that will navigate Tesla back to its dominant foundation. It’s much easier for the wealthy or the well off to ride out stock fluctuations than average investors, so there perspective will always be different, therefore, great leadership is of great importance. Keep up the good work! You are the king of Tesla! Govern your kingdom into the new world of valuation dominance!

Elon made everyone so rich in last 10 years. Now in this difficult time we have to support him. Also with our support and elons leadership Tesla s future looks Great. Not easy to find CEO like Elon.

Elon Musk is Tesla. Liberals are a bunch of petty losers. I just bought a Tesla and simply love it.

I am a owner/ stockholder of a Tesla 3 and would sell it if I could get any type of decent price for it. I love the car but can no longer deal with Musk. His hand raising to even remotely infer Hitler was what turned me totally against him and and recent remarks. I am going to dump the stock very soon. I love my Tesla but can not stand the man behind it any longer. Hopefully car price will rebound and I can get a electric vehicle from a company that respects people.

So... who really will him selling of 75% of his stock hurt? Other investors, Musk, ???
Sema like it's only a problem for a small group of people, and mostly tesla employees that own stock. They does auck for them in the short term, however the chances Tesla will rebound hugely from Musk being ousted seems worth it.
Little pain now for a lot of return long run? Or keep him in, and watch Tesla tank even more daily.

Sounds like I want a little b**** Tesla investor

Musk’s exit is overdue. He is no longer in control of himself and his misrepresentations on everything from the ever next quarter completion of FSD to his overhyped robots that still require human minders to control together mean he is unfit. No amount of ketamine and shrooms will get him to return to actually leading - if indeed he ever did. Shrill declarations are not accomplishments. The real question is whether Tesla the company can survive- with or without him.

If he believes so much in Elon, then if Elon steps down, it would only be the right thing that he's sell off stock, because he'd believe that the company stock would go down. I suspect the stock would go up if he steps down. So the premise that his selling 75% of his stock would be of consequence is stupid. Especially if he doesn't own at least several teams of millions of dollars worth of stock. I say, bye bye Elon, bye bye teslanomics.

Hate the Player, don't hate the Game. Tesla is #2 globally, behind BYD in China. All other American EV companies (and imports) are very far behind Tesla sale numbers in US (and globally). Many are praying on the downfall of Tesla when it has contributed to the reduction of carbon emissions more than any American company. Number 1 selling EV pickup (CT) and best selling EV (Y) in America. American jobs and technology advances are good for the US. Unclear who and what their interests are in the failure of this generational company that employs thousands of American citizens. The President is making the decisions, DODGE is simply there to implement the policies-anger is misplaced. It would be devastating to EVs, the globe and high paying US jobs if Tesla failed.

Tesla is Elon musk and we're all going to be surprised when Tesla stock is over $2000.

Bet the X account is a sycophant of Musk, or someone Musk pays to post stupid ass shit like this.

Let him sell his 15 shares 🙄

Having things "on the table because Musk is there" and them becoming reality are two vastly different things. This is why Tesla is a glorified meme stock. It's valuation is based solely on possibilities. Possibilities that tesla has not once, ever, delivered upon.
People are finally starting to realize. Its 10% drop in one day is result of this.
