Oh well. Maybe get a different CEO? 🤷‍♂️

That won't cut it, Elon Musk still has control of the board, and he is still the biggest stock holder.

Tesla stock is not valued on being a car company, but valued on insane ideas that some of their other products will be way bigger than Tesla cars, despite those products either don't work, or has gone almost nowhere for years.

Tesla as a company is almost certainly dead, and will most likely be broken up in a few years, and the stock be worth less than a tenth what it is now.

But in the meantime, Elon Musk continues to do huge damage to democracy with the money he has from Tesla.
If you want to own stock in a company that is actually doing what Tesla is claiming to do, I think Hyundai would be a way better bet, Hyundai owns Boston Dynamics, and their robots actually work.
