Think. Think. Think. Oh, bother. Thinking gives me a bit of a headache.

As a Tesla stockholder who watches pretty much all the different content creators mentioned, I can fairly say that Alexandra has repeatedly elucidated so many insightful points about the various possibilities for Tesla in a merger with SpaceX. And in this regard she has illuminated me on the many underlying pushes and pulls on all sides, including about Elon’s own interests and situations involved. I can say with great confidence that she is tenacious in her defense of Tesla stockholders. But she also tempers her observations quite well concerning Elon Musk. I agree with her that Elon is the engine that has driven the whole ecosystem, and that he must be given the latitude to run his own race like any epic elite racehorse. She has consistently stated in my hearing that Tesla shareholders should be given a bit of premium or sweetener in such a Tesla/SpaceX merger, whether that be a merger of equals, though Tesla may have a lesser market valuation, or whether it is an acquisition of Tesla by SpaceX with a premium per share allocation. She had stated that she will reserve her judgement until the actual offer is on the table, but that she has a cautious confidence that Elon will do right by Tesla shareholders, as I do also. Like her, I don’t view my Tesla stock ownership as having funded Tesla and Elon, that seems silly to me. I chose to buy Tesla stock to participate in the main with where Elon might take it. Without Elon, my interest in the stock would substantially wain. He doesn’t owe me anything for my ownership but to play his best at a game he himself has created. I have and will ride the ups and downs with him, just like one would do with a championship quarterback. My purchase of Tesla stock did not “fund” the company. If anything, I bought it down line from the original stockholders that funded it. They took the bigger initial risk. I bought it because I chose to relieve them of some of their risk and take upon myself that risk in part; because I liked what Elon had built and believe in the future I assess he can potentially bring. That risk was my personal choice, not a personal covenant with Elon. Again, he owes me nothing but to play his best game, ups and downs included. With regards to Tesla itself, the board of directors have historically done a stellar job navigating the company with Elon in building an amazing thing. If I don’t trust them, I should divest. If they break my trust I will divest. They have earned some leeway, as has Elon.
