Musk’s Money Mystery Intrigues SEC

This is an opinion piece and not very informative.

Maybe the "hero" shouldn't be throwing insults on twitter like a child. I thought the insult was well considered because, in context, the diver was going after kids. It's a sly kind of funny that someone from another country might think is very funny.

> Of course the SEC is looking into this. I can’t think of a thing that the SEC would look into more. If Warren Buffett was giving insider tips about accounting fraud at the Fed to Lloyd Blankfein so that he could help Donald Trump and the pope insider trade against the Illuminati, the SEC team investigating that would be scheming to get transferred to the Elon Musk team.

Obviously, this is a silly article. But the point remains: Mr. Musk clearly put himself at risk with that tweet. The core questions are:

1. Was Mr. Musk telling the truth about "secured funding" ?

2. What is the SEC's plan of action on investigating this matter?

The opinion piece otherwise doesn't contribute much information, aside from giggles and snide comments. It will be a mystery. Feds often don't like talking about pending cases, so it could be weeks, or even months, before any official action comes down from this. And who knows? Maybe Musk really is telling the truth about secured funding and there's no fraud involved.

EDIT: Yo downvotes: care to explain why you're downvoting a direct quote from the article? As I stated above: the opinion piece is clearly a silly piece of work that doesn't contribute much to the discussion. The core facts are still "at large" and we really won't get much information on this matter for weeks and/or months. That's really all there is to this story.

Nothing wrong with opinion pieces on Hacker News.

Don't forget that the Model 3 was originally planned to be "Model E", but Ford owns the rights to that name. Also, there's a planned compact SUV which goes by "Model Y". U+1F644
