Elon Musk latest message sends Tesla stock surging
The mercurial CEO's blunt take sent Tesla shares soaring.
Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, has a lot on his plate. The mercurial leader runs Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink, and the social media website, X. He's also been spending more than his share of time in Washington, D.C., where he heads the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, an organization within President Trump's administration focused on cost cuts.
Musk's busy schedule has earned him equal praise and criticism from fans and foes.
His supporters applaud his seemingly golden touch in building companies, while detractors say his lack of focus has contributed to failed Tesla model launches, declining sales, and X service disruptions.
