Elon Musk changes his name to Kekius Maximus on X

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy53vz1qpx1o

The world's richest man, Elon Musk, has sparked speculation after changing his name on his social media platform X to "Kekius Maximus".


From 6 mins 23 there is an explanation for Elon’s X name change which anyhow he has now stopped using, but which had its origin as a translation of lol in wargame:

So... this means an annual sales decline YoY. Partly because of China EV gains. Their Q4 profits will look terrible as they've discounted heavily to try and meet targets.

Also as I've long time predicted, everyone who wants a Tesla now has one, the public at large dont want EVs or cant afford one so will hold onto their ICE cars for longer. So a correction is inevitable to the stock price, unless there's a new product on the market. The q4 results will be interesting.

Plus of course Musk himself by going all in on Trump alienated lot if his potential customers.

Don’t forget energy storage sales are doing well so I suspect q4 profits will be ok.

EV sales are very buoyant, it is ice sales that are plummeting.

If we do get a new smaller model car that should greatly increase the addressable market for Tesla auto. We are also close to the revised model y (juniper) launch.
