Can we all agree that another CEO would be a better leader than Elon? There would be more stable and profitable innovations?

Edit: yeah he has a big stock multiplier factor, but then consider valuation from actual future innovations. Inflated stock price is just that: vapor.



Another CEO would be better for the company but disastrous for the company's stock price. Guess which one investors want to prioritize?


If you’re a Tesla shareholder, there is no better leader than Elon. For of all his many faults, I can’t think of anyone else who could keep that stock price pumped at a level so far far detached from reality for so long.


All the other car, robot, solar and energy companies have CEOs that aren't Elon. How are they doing?


Better


Without him the stock would crash. Most of its value is the cult of personality. (Which, to be clear, is bad)
