Clearly, you are not Elon Musk, but I agree that your approach would make a lot more sense.
If Tesla can't show growth beating market expectations, or if he can't get money out of Twitter, or if the Fed keeps raising rates, he could be forced to sell TSLA shares to deleverage, so the worse the Twitter situation looks, the more investors avoid TSLA, compounding his problems.
I am convinced at this point that the "cloudy head" that Musk reported during his first COVID infection pre-vaccination is an ongoing medical condition, perhaps a mild encephalitis, leading to rash actions because the brain fog renders him incapable of thinking through consequences . https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-musk/e...
