The post fails to mention that spaceX is not just a rocket company. Bundled with it is xAI, which is presumably losing money hand over fist. Package enough risk together and sell for a higher price to retail consumers. We’ve seen this play…

  Unfortunately, shorting it means betting that space data centers won’t happen (I’d happily take that bet) and that some fuckery won’t extend the inflated valuation beyond my ability to hold the position.

    > Unfortunately, shorting it means betting that space data centers won’t happen (I’d happily take that bet) This seems like an easy bet to win, though I don't know what you were responding to now that it's flagged. It's hard to imagine 'space data centers' being a meaningful product or infra in the collective lifetimes of anyone posting on this site.

      It was a silly comment saying that if you’re dumb enough to think data centers in space won’t be worth a trillion bucks, you can turn that into cash by shorting SpaceX.

What I don't get is what happened to 'I'm keeping spaceX private so we can actually get to mars', with the understanding that'd be almost impossible as a public company. Welp, guess that idea got sold out...

  It fell into place for my dense ass when I heard someone muse that inside SpaceX the joke is "Mars == Wars" True or not, it rings with reality IMO

  Having a trans kid seems to have flipped him from "I must save humanity by colonizing Mars" to "I must save humanity by electing Donald Trump."
