There is a pattern: he was successful at picking and shorting fraudulent FINANCIAL companies, where the only thing matters is the balance sheet that he understands. But, then he turned around and starting to short TECH companies that were high growth with high multiples placed on FUTURE value of a technology. To see whether a tech company's high multiple is justified or not, you need to understand the technology, which he clearly DOES NOT. So he started betting against tech winners, because they had too high valuation in his rear-view-mirror based financial analysis. Lesson to learn: stay within your expertise! Do not try to judge players in industries you have no clue about!
Bullshit. Tesla was valued more than Ford. GM, Volkswagen and a couple others COMBINED, at a time they sold 21 million vehicles and Tesla. 340k. THE OMLY thing he misread was the Bernie Sanders/ Donald Trump like cult factor. You don’t need to understand the 16th century Dutch Tulip Bulb.

Boomers screeching about fundamentals is so fucking hilarious its like they don't realise the stock market is one big game. If you don't have a dividend, then your stock is backed nearly purely by market sentiment and 'fundamentals' are just an illusion to give people the feeling like the price goes up/down for logical reasons. Delusional shit.
The fact that Tesla is trading today at 2/3s of its high is useful to know. Many other stocks that soared until February have plummeted that much and more. When the stimulus and super unemployment run out (when there is no one left to pump), a 33% loss may look like a gift. Regarding dividends, that's just not true. There are some very profitable companies that cost 10%ish more than their tangible book value. In other words, they could be sold for parts and the shareholders would only lose a tiny amount of their investments. That's where my money sits (for the part that isn't day trading technicals).
Well Tesla has a P/E ratio of 1000 while its competitors are catching up (in Europe Tesla lags behind VW in electric). So it's fair to say a correction is due before the end of the year. Say it goes back to a more normal 30 P/E ratio, thats a stock price of 22$ instead of 660$. So Einhorn could win his bet.

A person can live a long, happy and successful life without shorting a single stock. With all due respect to Mr Einhorn and that Chicago School guy(He won a g d Nobel prize) economics is a lot more emotions and a lot less rational than smart people seem to realize. Best wishes and so on JoM
He probably needs to close his existing fund and start with a new one. Since his performance fee will revolve around high watermark, his existing fund greatly handicaps him in this respect.

Einhorn set his pattern when he was young. The world has changed around him as he digs in on the beliefs that won him followers in the past. Reasoning has been replaced with ego. He is determined to prove himself right in a Monty Python way.

I always wonder why people type something like you did, without taking the 2 seconds it would take to google and learn you were wrong first. The internet is right here.
I always go into short sellers stocks they short it's the easiest place to find a big winners because they short terrible companies so the great ones stick out...lol
I dont know. I think Einhorn's analysis of Telsa is correct however he could not have anticipated the sheer effect that Elon Musk the person has on the stock exchange. This hype driven world that we live in is such that even if Elon Musk invested in Rock Pets the stock will Moon without any intrinsic increase in revenue.
It wasn't correct. Tesla isn't just another car company; anyone who drives a Tesla becomes a Tesla shill, because it's an entirely different experience; the instant torque and silent motors feel like playing a video game, but with acceleration. Not doing due diligence and screwing around in a P100D for a day or two destroyed him.

Anger is my own worst enemy i dont like to lose starting to understand how things really work....
Greenlight Capital rose 36.6 percent last year. Tesla is plummeting and so is Netflix and Facebook.
Shorts sellers are best thing retail traders can ask for, they expose fraud company..they dont have to be right but it keeps a check
When you have a thesis without understanding the underpinnings of it, it's a matter of time before the wind direction changes and everything falls apart.
How is there not a 4 hour long podcast with Joe Rogan, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Tim Dillon, and Alex Jones by now!?!?
That would break the internet. And would probably be deemed hate speech by the fact-checking gods
This action would break the internet, burn all communication network lines, and cause your electrical outlets to produce water. God himself would appear just to fact check Jones and Trump as Young Jamie cries in the corner.
9:23 that letter is genius and hilarious xD
A person can live a long, happy and successful life without shorting a single stock. With all due respect to Mr Einhorn and that Chicago School guy(He won a g d Nobel prize) economics is a lot more emotions and a lot less rational than smart people seem to realize. Best wishes and so on JoM
7:26 you’d think this guy could afford a decent toupee.
He probably needs to close his existing fund and start with a new one. Since his performance fee will revolve around high watermark, his existing fund greatly handicaps him in this respect.
Know what my dad gave me to start off my career? A handshake and told me good luck.
still cant believe he shorted Amazon. well at least he got a free pair of shorts for his Tesla position. worth more a billion dollars to Einhorn.
Life is volatile... us retailers THRIVE in this atmosphere. dji down almost 300 today and I had a killer green week.
They forget we are the ones with all the money.
Apes por vida!
He seems like a man who is Nostalgic in nature. His values are more driven by a dream to keep things as they are as compared to seeing where the world is going.
So I can say he will win with the losers...
Shorting should be illegal. It's one of the most fucked up things capitalism has ever come up with.
Short-selling is a terrible way to make money. It opens yourself to unlimited losses and you can't really scale.
never short even if an business is shit they can always get bought out by an good one? right?
I learned it the hard way.
Never understood it. Shorts have limited upside and unlimited downside. Even if you were 99% sure why risk it.
Put options are a better way to take a bearish position.. at least your losses are limited..
Let’s just welcome them and take their gains
Shorting tech stocks of Google Amazon and Apple is really insane
He was just a little early.
Fun fact: that quote attributed to Napoleon, was from the battle of waterloo. The one he lost because his enemy was in fact not making a mistake but knew the terrain better and was able to take advantage of what would be traditionally an ineffective position.
Fate loves irony
A thing I have learned is Never short a business with high future growth potential/Future theme, no matter how crazy the valuations are
big lesson here. short selling is bad. Wall street is terrible. the system needs to be fully transparent.
One of the rules of wealth is always check your ego
For I will say his ego made him fall.
There are a lot of so called tech companies that actual do not provide tech hardware or software, these are the tech companies to short because all their income is derived from investors, such as Weworks
Did you say "Prestigious" Cornell University?
yep, he said it loud and clear.
There’s just some people that don’t know when to cut their losses
Einhorn set his pattern when he was young. The world has changed around him as he digs in on the beliefs that won him followers in the past. Reasoning has been replaced with ego. He is determined to prove himself right in a Monty Python way.
The penalty for arrogance and over-confidence... Coupled with a backward-looking philosophy that is proving to be the nemesis of many "traditional" analysts and observers.
This video has me very concerned about Einhorn’s hair, what’s going on their.
Next wallstreet millenial story, how tesla took down legendary investor Christian Bale, AKA batman AKA Michael Burry.
This didn’t age well.
Einhorn has that 'just fuck my shit up' hair cut.
The way he starts blinking Morse code, when he talks about Tesla's RnD really makes wonder if he really means what he says.
"Help I am held hostage by my ego"
This is what happens when you do not have the vision to see where companies are going and only rely on the spreadsheet.
What a Dope. "Never interrupt your enemy..." quote if from Sun Tsu, not Napoleon.
I always wonder why people type something like you did, without taking the 2 seconds it would take to google and learn you were wrong first. The internet is right here.
@@TheSofajockey Sun Tzu said it first.
People who try to make fortunes selling failure. Best case study of greed ever.
they are gamblers who had a lucky streak
That heavy blinking tells me something lol
Ben Shapiro ran a hedgefund, well I'll be damned.
Finkle and Einhorn! Finkle and Einhorn! Finkle and Einhorn! ... Finkle IS Einhorn!!!
Einhorn isn't wrong, he just hasn't heard JM Keynes' quote that the market can remain irrational longer than you or I can remain solvent.
0:44 andy from the office just got triggered
I always go into short sellers stocks they short it's the easiest place to find a big winners because they short terrible companies so the great ones stick out...lol
is there a website that keeps track of that?
@@tenzinpassang4812 Yes of course there is and it's totally free and everyone get access to it at the same time.
Tesla took down a $12 billion hedge fund? Wowee, Tesla is a 650 billion dollar enterprise.
I dont know. I think Einhorn's analysis of Telsa is correct however he could not have anticipated the sheer effect that Elon Musk the person has on the stock exchange. This hype driven world that we live in is such that even if Elon Musk invested in Rock Pets the stock will Moon without any intrinsic increase in revenue.
It wasn't correct. Tesla isn't just another car company; anyone who drives a Tesla becomes a Tesla shill, because it's an entirely different experience; the instant torque and silent motors feel like playing a video game, but with acceleration. Not doing due diligence and screwing around in a P100D for a day or two destroyed him.
Even a blind dog finds a bone sometimes. Hard to sympathize with a guy that is gifted 900 million to start with and lives on the hoped for downfall of a company.
i recently drove a Tesla 3 and i was blown away. i would never short Tesla.
Sad part is that he is right about tesla but such a bad timing got swept away by EV wave 😞
I feel a little sorry for the guy. Unlike many short sellers, he thinks he's doing the right thing.. BTW I own TSLA.
Stock or Cyrbertruck?
Imaging him opening a package from Amazon with a pair of Tesla short-shorts inside.
The market crash prediction has been going for months now, imagine if you've invested heavy then. The truth is no one actually knows if the crash is gonna happen. some said it will happen immediately after the election, hello we're done with the election now. You just have to invest smartly . I'm glad it worked for me with the help of an investment advisor, I recently added my $250,000 profits to my portfolio.
I heavily missed out on going into the market during the lockdown.
The real secret of building wealth is by having multiple streams of income. That includes both online and offline investments.
I'm new to the stock market, learned so much already online and obsessing atm, i need monitoring and guidance as i'm desperate to get into investing now, please can you share more info about your investment advisor?
i trade with Jessica Lee Aquiler
Could you imagine being so arrogant and full of yourself and so completely ineptly overconfident with your clients money that you short Netflix, Amazon, and Tesla at the same time?
it gives me schadenfreude seeing this kind of hedgefund bro getting things so spectacularly wrong
Also.. "You have our sympathies" cracking response Elon. 😁😆🤣
In contrast, in 1996, I moved out of my fathers house and went into debt in student loans, which have yet to be fully paid off.
Yes, but you are a real person, in touch with reality, and probably honest. 8-)
That will teach you to be born into the wrong family! Learn from it and do better next time.
Are you a doctor?
Aaaand 2021 1st Quarter TSLA production beats the crap out of street expectations.
