Another Nostradamus has entered the chat.

Bet you said the same thing about the first Iran strikes and Venezuela too.

Iran only makes sense for the US in the context of China.

Chinese growth is falling off a cliff. The CCP just announced its official growth target of between 4.5% and 5%.

This is the lowest growth in China in 30 years.

At the same time, with Venezuela and Iran off the chess board wrt energy supply, they are increasingly challenged in getting the atoms they need to sustain themselves.

It makes for a very constrained set of decisions over these next few years, especially wrt Taiwan.

This is why Trump questioned Tucker Carlson's intellect.

I personally think that Tucker's doing it to cause a divide. He Called for Qatar to be the new Israel...

He isn't stupid but he has that cocky laugh all the way to the bank

Elon is certainly eclectic, but he isn't stupid.

His companies are leading the charge in a revolution of technology and innovation. You can see the influence in companies like Palantir, Anduril, Saronic, etc.

I'm pretty confident he understands the what is to come and probably lives in a state of immense frustration that others either don't understand it or aren't comfortable with it.

He’s got the worst record of predictions I’ve ever seen from a CEO.

Elon Musk Haters Have Found a Hilariously Easy Way to Make Money on Polymarket

quote:

Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk has long garnered a reputation for being massively wrong in his promises and predictions about the future.

In 2024, for instance, he said that AI would become “smarter than the smartest human” by 2025. He said his company’s SpaceX Starship rocket, which is still exploding during test flights, will land on Mars this year. Like clockwork, he’s predicted that self-driving cars will become a reality “next year” every year for well over a decade now. He promised robotaxis without human safety monitors by mid-2025, which the company still has yet to accomplish.

We could go on and on. In short, it’d be far easier to count the occasions on which he’s been right than when he’s been wrong.

Now, as NBC News reports, users on online prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket are making big bucks off of Musk’s astonishing track record for being wrong about the future. Case in point, Polymarket user David Bensoussan made a ten percent return after betting $10,000 that Musk wouldn’t follow through on his threat of forming a new political party following his falling out with president Donald Trump.

He also successfully bet against Musk’s prediction that Tesla would launch an “unsupervised” version of its erroneously-named “Full Self-Driving” software by the end of 2025.

To Bensoussan, it’s a matter of principle.

“He does have a solid fan base, and so if I can help separate them from some of their money, I’m always happy to do that,” he told NBC. “He has a habit of exaggerating timelines, and of saying he’s going to do these amazing things and attaching more immediacy than what his intent may necessarily be.”

Dragging half the populace along for the ride isn't conducive to growth. We need to shed a bunch of dead weight going work n work or starve, their choice.

Elon set 10yr TSLA milestones in 2009 (milestones widely assumed to be impossible), with bonuses based on attainment. Now at well over $100 billion at recent Tesla stock prices, those bonuses he attained say you might need to reconsider your opinion.

That's what happens when you basically give away your country's manufacturing base and a large chunk of their IP. We are taking steps to stop that problem.
