I'm surprised that the Tesla earnings didn't make more of a dent here. Despite the fact that revenue rose 12 percent, to $28.1 billion, profit fell 37 percent, to $1.4 billion from a year earlier. This was due to slashing prices on cars and the fact that there was a huge run on cars due to expiring Tax credits.

Given the expired credit, I can't see their next quarter's earning being that good at all.

Sounds like he needs a $1T pay package. 

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/27/tesla-musk-pay-shareholder-vote.html

Shareholders must vote to pay Tesla CEO Elon Musk almost $1 trillion, or he might not stay, Board Chair Robyn Denholm warned in a letter Monday.

“Without Elon, Tesla could lose significant value, as our company may no longer be valued for what we aim to become,” Denholm wrote ahead of Tesla’s annual meeting on Nov. 6.

The shareholder vote for Musk’s pay and other proposals closes at 11:59 p.m. ET on Nov. 5.

Musk is key to the future of the EV maker as it moves beyond being “just another car company,” with a bigger focus on Full Self Driving and Optimus, Denholm argued.

Several groups have publicly opposed the pay package in recent days, with Institutional Shareholder Services, the biggest proxy advisory firm in the world, recommending against its “astronomical” value.

Last week, a group of unions and corporate watchdogs launched the Take Back Tesla website to oppose the pay package, noting Musk’s embracing of right-wing political movements and amplifying of conspiracy theories that have damaged the brand.

Musk lashed out at proxy firms as “corporate terrorists” on a post-earnings call with analysts last week.

Imagine another board saying that we have to give into the extortion demands of our CEO or he will quit.
