Tim Higgins, Wall Street Journal business columnist, joins “Squawk Box” to discuss Elon Musk’s AI startup xAI raising $6 billion, Musk’s $56 billion Tesla pay drama and more .
The biggest lesson I learned in 2023 about the stock market is that nobody knows what will happen next, so practice some humility and low a strategy with a long-term edge.
Tim Higgins is jealous of elon musk
Continuing with one of the dumbest narratives ever
Pay the man … He earned it!
the sole secret of making steady gains in crypto is simple; get in with the right approach!! You don’t expect your first attempt to raise huge gains due to social media hype. Take your time and search for a trustworthy professional and keep up with their trades.
Tesla signed a deal Elon delivered on his metrics and now a delaware judge makes a ridiculous judgment reneges on deal
Elon Musk has one mission in life: to colonize Mars. SpaceX's Starship will provide the transportation, and Optimus will handle the main labor duties, including controlling the Boring Company machines to build Mars' infrastructure. Tesla's Megapack batteries and solar panels will supply Mars' electric grid system. Transportation on Mars will utilize the Tesla Robotaxi FSD system. Finally, when humans are ready to use the finished infrastructure on Mars, they will use the Neuralink system to control all the robots. Communication between Earth and Mars will be advanced by then, thanks to Starlink. Elon Musk's X and xAI companies will generate the funds to pay for his project
Tesla will merge with xAI.
I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024
Ive been following tesla since 2016 and the story has changed sooooo much.
2016-2018 = dominant ev car company thesis
2019-2022 = energy, ev, fsd
2023-present = energy, ev, artificial intelligence, humanoid robotics, robotaxi
Im waiting for 2025 to see what else changes
Elon take trump with you to Mars
And stay there
I rejected the rejects pay package for Tesla. Elon might be book smart but he has zero street smarts. I'm glad this 1d10t can't run for public office.
Musk warned AI was too soon. Electric cars are as big a lie as climate change and space x is military. Musk tiny homes are wef. And most of the world is made up of sheep
It means he’s still negative 38 billion.
He used this to buy votes for his tesla pay package. The institutions whose vote he needs are the same ones that bought this round of xAI. Not a bad move. Expect his pay package to pass in a couple weeks.
Bias news on Elon. Fake news
6- AI and “social existence, social experience, social consciousness”.
@jamshidi_rahim
maybe the only remaining users of X will be AI talking to each other.
Despite the financial struggles my family and I faced, everything is finally falling into place!
Weekly earnings and wealth of $47,000. I will always praise the Lord!!!
That name is sick XAI
Yes they had a Deal and of course the Board should Honor that Deal!
it's pretty simple, they had a deal to pay him 50 billion $ if he brought the valuation of the company to where it got, — they need to honor their contract and pay him. there's really no grey area. people with 1 or two shares should not be able to vote to cancel his previously agreed upon pay package – these are core tenets of the american business system, if every company could dodge paying out their contractual obligations nobody would invest in american companies and the US would be seen as a scam country
Gonna fail like everything else AI
I’m so tired of mainstream news pretending like it doesn’t know why we need xAI. Really? You’re that clueless?
There is a live stream in YouTube right now using the muskrats face to steal crypto. I reported it to Google/YouTube and no response. The muskrat let's it go because it ain't his money.. WTF, AI admin over YouTube sucks big time! American AI is horrible!
What it means is Musk LIED like always in January when he denied the Forbes article.
It seems everyone is still relying too heavily on the charts now. Imho, when the ETF's stepped into Crypto it changed the game. The Bitcoin Baby has been born and will grow up fast. The Crypto Market now has a rubber stamp of approval. Wall Street is in the game now and It will become the store of value we have been talking about. The rules are already changing. We would have normally had a corrective retrace by now, yet Bitcoin has been steadily rising. The name of the game is getting out with profit, but when exactly to get out this Super Cycle is going to be a tricky one. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady…managed to grow a nest egg of around 3.4Bitcoin to a decent 18Bitcoin in the space of a few months… I'm especially grateful to Lukas Douglas whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.
lol why are you asking that clown he is clueless
The pay package far exceeds all profit the company has ever generated…. You folks know how to drive a hard bargain. Wait, it gets better. You can give him another one of similar size because he's not happy with the amount of shares he has left after selling to buy Twitter. In other words, YOU pay for Twitter. Do so under threat of him taking anything AI related away from Tesla and tanking your investment further if he doesn't get his way. He can move it over to xAI. Convenient, isn't it? I'm sure the board of family and friends will look after shareholders.
Of course, the only people that would disagree would be Elizabeth Warren and crew. We all know she hates billionaires.And Joe Biden included we all no Joe takes payola but he won’t live long enough to make his first billion so he is a cockroach next to Elon musk
Hey, Pay the man his money.
Tesla shareholders overwhelmingly voted in 2018 for this pay package overturned by a Nazi judge. Pay the man his money. 😮
Glass Lewis, another lying person pushed forward by CNBC ……
You at CNBC — who pays you; are there any chances that you will start to tell truths about things, not lying to push the goals of others forward?
How about reporting on …. news? You know – facts, not dreamt-up stories?
How about reporting positively on the doings, or even dreams, of others — and then stop taking people in who "oh, I hate this", "I do not belive in person XXX and company YYY".
Instead of slandering people, talk positively about what deserves to be highlighted?
My God. Musk is the most straight and committed business leader the world has seen for decades, or maybe centuries. He does what all "the Experts" said was impossible in terms of car design, production & profitability, reduction in carbon emissions, reduction in human misery casued by road deaths and injuries, advanced low cost rocketry that may save our existance, helping paraplegics have a better life.
Has he made mistakes – of course everyone has, but he learns, teaches and shares his successes.
Please show some balance rather than envy.
Tim: Exactly, help me spread FUD, CNBC.
He made allot of average retail investors millionaires. He deserves his pay for the last 6 years. If we strip him all his billions, than to be fair, everyone that made profits with Tesla stock, should give all that money back too. Than is that fair?
👍👍 Thanks for the update! Despite the economic recession, I no longer depend on Government Grants since I acquire $86,400 weekly profits.
Musk is no stranger to broken contracts lol
CNBS's magic – ability to make every Elon's news negative.
Give Musk his payout so Musk works under the Tesla umbrella rather than starting another company
This guy is a clown
he has balls!!!
Ok, now they’re saying tsla is a AI company😂
Tesla is more ambition than basics. Door panel gaps are atrocious. Interior is shoddy. They seem afraid of their own customers with delivery model. Normies want to drive with muscle memory, not an fn tablet. 12K for a software package is greedy for being his crash test dummy. You got my opinion here.
ELON deserves to be paid!!. Why should he be engaged if he is not getting paid!!! Hasn't he proven himself!! WTF
Are you familiar with the connection between AI and FSD?
You ain’t keeping me and Will apart or doing anything else Mat or Trump. God doesn’t need a hospital, computer AND DEFINITELY NONE OF YOU
Elon rusty, Eric DUSTY WITH A NATE KICK STAND. Lames. Y’all pray for Elon has meningitis, severe altimeters and dementia. Space X the real moon where Elon bought a bunch of organs from the store with holes on them. His Eric one came down with AIDS. Broadcast alert don’t buy organs from here CHINA/Elon from here from the store from mat and Gentry THEY ARE ALL PUNCTURED THE EYES ARE ALL SOLD WITH RETINA DEATACHMENT
Delaware Court interfered with shareholder vote. Now voters got to vote again? If they lose, voters got to vote again then again? Anti-climate climate change activist are now protesting Elon?! Hypocrites.
Some facts
1) 56bn was a long ago value – now it is worth half that
2) It was expensed years ago in the books.
3) Elon must PAY cash to Tesla to exercise the options
A Delaware judge interfered/manipulated Tesla (a private company's) pay package. He'll get even a better pay package passed by the majority of shareholders. Musk used to be a media darling, post Twitter purchase he's constantly persecuted by the corporate legacy media.
