Elon Musk expressed shock at the recent vandalism and violence against Tesla vehicles, attributing it to a backlash against his efforts to eliminate government waste and fraud. He described the attacks as "domestic terrorism" and suggested that those upset by his actions are resorting to extreme measures. Musk emphasized that the hostility stems from his success in cutting corrupt practices, stating, "bad people will do bad things."
Anti-Tesla protests are being funded by Karla Jurvetson, a prominent Democratic donor and ex-wife of Steve Jurvetson, an early Tesla investor. She contributed over $500,000 to Indivisible Action, which is organizing nationwide demonstrations against Elon Musk's leadership and policies. The protests have escalated to vandalism of Tesla properties, reflecting deep political divisions surrounding Musk's influence and actions.
Warren Buffett is making his March Madness bracket contest more accessible this year, offering a one-time $1 million prize for correctly predicting at least 30 of the first 32 games. If no one wins, a consolation prize of $250,000 will go to the employee with the most correct picks. Despite the odds of a perfect bracket being astronomically low, Buffett hopes the changes will finally lead to a winner among Berkshire Hathaway's 400,000 employees.
Russia is seeking to collaborate with Elon Musk on a potential joint mission to Mars, with discussions expected soon, according to Kirill Dmitriev, a special envoy for President Putin. This initiative aims to enhance the capabilities of Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, and its nuclear corporation, Rosatom, amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions. Dmitriev emphasized the importance of creative progress and the need for international cooperation in space exploration.
Tesla's stock has plummeted, leading short sellers to gain $16 billion, while BYD's shares soared to a record high after launching two new models with rapid charging capabilities. BYD's market cap now exceeds $160 billion, surpassing major automakers like Volkswagen and Ford. Meanwhile, Elon Musk's focus on humanoid robots has raised concerns about his ability to manage Tesla effectively, contributing to the company's significant stock value loss since December.
Warren Buffett has revamped his 2025 March Madness Challenge, now offering a $1 million prize for correctly predicting 30 of the first 32 games, a shift from the previous perfect bracket requirement. With around 65,000 Berkshire Hathaway employees participating last year, the new rules may attract even more entrants. If no one wins the million, a $250,000 prize will go to the best overall bracket.
Kirill Dmitriev, head of Russia’s Direct Investment Fund, announced plans to meet with Elon Musk to discuss Mars exploration and potential U.S.-Russian cooperation. He emphasized the importance of leveraging expertise from Roscosmos and Rosatom to enhance the safety and efficiency of a Mars mission. Musk has not yet commented on the upcoming talks.
Elon Musk has praised tech leaders Larry Ellison, Jeff Bezos, and Larry Page as some of the smartest individuals he knows, highlighting their significant achievements. Musk noted that intelligence is measured by tangible accomplishments, specifically mentioning Bezos' impactful work despite their long-standing rivalry. Recently, their relationship appears to have softened, with Musk sharing memes suggesting a reconciliation.
Russia is set to engage in discussions with Elon Musk regarding Mars flight plans, as stated by Kirill Dmitriev, President Putin's envoy for international cooperation. Dmitriev emphasized the potential for collaboration in the space sector, aiming to enhance Russia's space agency Roscosmos and its nuclear corporation Rosatom. This initiative comes amid ongoing efforts to restore dialogue between the U.S. and Russia, particularly in light of the conflict in Ukraine.
Elon Musk is facing increasing pressure to refocus on his role as Tesla's CEO as the company's stock plummets over 50% since December. Analysts express concern that Musk's attention on his DOGE initiative within the Trump Administration is detracting from Tesla's needs, risking further brand damage. Investors are losing patience, urging Musk to restore balance and prioritize the automaker during this critical period.
