He's one smart cookie our Elon, I believe I made the call before Tesla's announcement. People that know how interpret price action, can see something brewing before news hit the wire. Hopefully, this is one of these moments.
Hm, not sure would qualify as insider trading. More like manipulation, dunno. Tesla has the right to accept whatever method of payment they deem appropriate, so not sure what angle they may have here on him.
That's a different story. The constant talking up and down of cryptos by Elon is blatant insider trading. You don't honestly believe he does not trade around his calls, do you?
Imagine the kind of position you can build short over hours or days when you know the tweet you release is going to tank the market!
