Yes it is a stunt.

If they want to tax unrealized gains that is one thing. To single out certain individuals, not sure that is the right way to go.

Just a way to sell stock without tanking the value. Brilliant really.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Probably just a coincidence.  :)
Say he did know and the price goes up tomorrow would it still be insider trading?

What's stopping you from dying your own hair the same color?  :P

You need to get out more.

Or are you claiming some sort of age discrimination?

The problem is I get out to much. When I see one person walking another person on a leash I need to stay home.

I think this has a lot to do with it. But what exactly would he have done if the vote came out the other way? He already said he will need to sell stock when his options expire soon.

I was also wondering about that but from what I understand he sold stock from the options. My guess is they were probably given at the same time as Elon's and are also expiring soon.

He might be super crazy, but he ain't dumb. Do you really think anyone with a brain would expect the vote to come out the other way?

I would expect the Redditt crowd to stack the vote.

I guess it's just wishful thinking from a stock holder...
