I was referring to Modern Apple, post-2016 Apple, not Apple from nearly 30 years ago. I am not referencing that moment in time, I am referencing a very strong company with huge cash reserves and a dedicated wealthy fanbase along with fawning investors, both private and public.

> I don't see Tesla doing anything like that.

Of course not, that would Actually bankrupt the company. What Tesla must do is what they say their plans are: ramp up production and bring new product categories online. They will succeed, and if there are short-term cash issues they will be resolved.

Tesla is a $10T play. Elon wouldn't let it die in 4 months because of some silly, relatively small cash issue getting in the way.
