$1.4bn is a lot to fall through the cracks, even for Tesla
archive.is/uLXoy#selection-327

"attention is returning to the group’s underlying numbers, now that its fully diluted #StockMarket valuation has crashed from $1.7tn to below $800bn.

"In two months, the United States has experienced the worst outbreak of measles in decades. The stock markets have suffered heavy losses. Prices of household items and food have risen.

In two months, the United States has become more of a pariah than a partner concerning human rights, global security, environmental protection, and goodwill."

From Mark Halperin

“The combination of tariff use far more aggressive than I (and many others) had expected, with DOGE cuts far more aggressive than almost anyone anticipated – both carried out with a chaotic, shambolic fervor that makes the early days of the Clinton administration look like the crisply folded sheets at the Tokyo Aman – has left those who analyze the American economy and its role in the world confused and dazed.

Text Shot: Sarah Bianchi, the chief strategist of international political affairs and public policy at Evercore ISI, has a brilliant and totally fair new analysis paper for her clients reflecting the uncertainty which includes this: Within the first 50-plus days, this already challenging policy mix has intensified due to the administration’s rapid and relentless pace of activity, generating an environment of pronounced uncertainty. DOGE has contributed notably to this turmoil, abruptly closing agencies and terminating employees, putting government grants and contracts on pause, and prompting dozens of court challenges. Tariff actions have matched this swift pace, carrying even greater economic implications, especially given the integrated North American supply chain.

muskwatch.com/p/the-week-in-mu

"predicted a certain amount of graft. But even the most skeptical observers may not have pictured #DonaldTrump selling Teslas on the #WhiteHouse lawn...
