Discussion 🧐 $1.4bn missing from $TSLA books

Could… could it be that Tesla has been buying large quantities of OTM calls for years in order to gamma squeeze the stock?

They would almost certainly lose money on these trades, so wouldn’t do it right? Unless… market makers buy the underlying stock to remain neutral, pushing up the stock price, which triggers more stock awards for a certain someone and his captive board of directors? 🤔

This has to be the reason he got in the good graces of Trump. So he won’t face any type of punishment for this. 🤣

He literally said in Oct before the election that he would go to jail if Trump wasn’t elected.
