  1. Elon Musk owns SpaceX.
    SpaceX makes rockets.
    Rockets are essentially downward-facing giant flamethrowers.
    His engineers play around with rockeeter gadgets.
    A flamethrower is a rocketeer gadget. Get it?

    1. Yea, but it is scary looking like a MR-15 Turn around is fair play.

    2. On a more serious note ... Musk's style is to deflect when in trouble ... Like the current Model 3 looming disaster. He shows a sports car, a semi-trailer rig, etc. to maintain his charisma (and stock price). I just think this flame thrower was a dud as a PR stunt.

    3. Scary perhsps but from the demo i saw, if you are more than 20 feet away it is just a blowtorch in a rifle format.

    4. My use of "scary" was tongue in cheek. Just looked it up. Tesla's market cap = GM's ... Is this rational?

  2. No it is not rational. That's the thing about markets, by-and-large they are irrational. They depend on anticipated performance more that actual performance. Toyota has a market cap that is 5x Ford but revenue that is not even 2X. Buy Ford? Sell Toyota? Is Ford failing? Go figure.
