However, and a big one, Amazon is an on-line book seller, and airBnB a booking ledger. Tesla is a perfect shorting candidate, just not at the bid/ask but far away out of the money, and by timed-autonomous-exploding offers working by way of time-decay. If TSLA short giving you some hassles, try GME (gamestop) as a hedge and go long, for in many respect GME is a more reasonably priced bubblette albeit of less consequence in effect, now and when it goes kaboom, and might go up as long as TSLA refuses to drop, and drop later as and when TSLA does.

And fawning government as well, with pleading subsidies at the ask, which Elon knows as cash flow, to attach a 1000+ P/E to.zerohedge.com Elon Musk Now Wants To Drill For Natural Gas In Texas Just months after Elon Musk moved his climate-change-fighting, alternative energy, "green" automaker to Texas, the CEO now has plans to drill for natural gas. Multiple sources reported on Friday that Musk's SpaceX intends on drilling wells close to the company's Boca Chica launchpad, according to the Dallas News . The information came out Friday during a hearing before the Railroad Commission of Texas, the state’s energy regulator. SpaceX says it plans to use methane from the ground “in connection with their rocket facility operations.” But SpaceX isn't drilling just yet - in fact, it is being held up by a legal dispute with another energy company. SpaceX's subsidiary, Lone Star Mineral Development, "bought the 806-acre La Pita oil lease from Houston-based Sanchez Energy, which was later renamed Mesquite Energy Inc. after exiting bankruptcy." The company's plans have been called into question by Dallas Petroleum Group, which is claiming ownership of some of the wells on the land. The dispute resulted in Friday's hearing, where's SpaceX's intentions were revealed.

SpaceX didn't answer any questions on Friday when reached for comments and questions about what, exactly, they would be using the natural gas for. SpaceX does plan "to utilize super-chilled liquid methane and liquid oxygen as fuel for its Raptor engines," the Dallas News noted. Tesla also has a new Gigafactory being built near Austin. In what we're sure was Musk trying to get ahead of this ugly headline, he Tweeted out on Thursday that he planned on donating $100 million toward finding the best new carbon capture technology. We're sure the timing of this Tweet - and the news that would follow less than 24 hours later - is just a coincidence. And so, we have come full circle. If you're a U.S. politician and/or regulator who encouraged Musk over the last decade - or pushed for him to get any kind of "green energy" subsidy - you should feel immensely stupid. But, we're sure you won't. We're certain you'll instead act like this isn't happening and isn't a stark punch in the gut to anyone who has supported Musk's boondoggles over the last decade under the guise of helping the environment. Drill, baby, drill.
