Tesla is getting smacked today, and I don't know why.

They had their meeting yesterday. Maybe it's a case of "sell on good news." Beats me.

I don't own any, other than through an index fund.

Twitter overhang and announcement of a 3 for 1 split.
Split is happening 8/25 (?).

It'll recover. I don't know enough to say when. I don't own any...yet...but will after the split. I do own Rivian and Lucid. Still have fatally optimistic hopes for Lucid and genuine confidence in Rivian.

...nope.

There are a lot of EV startups and more on the way. I'm not really a gambler. I took a gamble on Lucid that isn't working out well. That's the end of my "startup" experiment.

I wish them all lots of luck, though. It'll be interesting to see who is still around in 10 years.
