Elon says on twitter he thinks it will be worth $3 trillion soon
Some idiots buy stock, price goes up
You sell
Profit
You can keep doing this as long as there’s a bigger idiot down the line. If you’re still holding the stock when it collapses you’re the biggest idiot and you lose.
SpaceXs initial valuation is so large it will distort the market, and they changed the rules so the index funds will all buy shares automatically to balance their portfolios, which will shoot the price up and balloon the valuation even further, then Elon and the investors that helped him buy twitter can sell at ludicrous prices at the expense of American 401ks and and passive managed pension funds.
It’s a trillion dollar rug pull in broad daylight.
That’s what they want to happen, but the biggest index fund are already shutting that down. The main losers are going to be his die hard sycophants, who won’t be able to help themselves from buying this trap.

Edit- Nasdaq changed their rule, S&P has not.

On behalf of my 401k, thank goodness.
