Elon Says Bill Gates Will Get “Obliterated”

As Tesla continued its incredible run this week thanks to great numbers from their Q2 delivery report, Tesla short sellers lost an outstanding $3.5 billion in the span of just two days, including Bill Gates who happens to be one of the biggest short sellers of Tesla.

In response to this topic on X, Elon replied to a tweet referencing TSLA bears where he singled out Gates specifically:

According to Elon, Gates' short position started out at $500 million but has grown due to Tesla's stock price increases.

Gates’ total short position is now estimated to be between $1.5 billion and $2 billion.

On the flip side, TSLA is up over 42% in the past month, jumping over $74 in share price.

So far, Elon is doing exactly what he said he would do once he received his comp package approval just two weeks ago.
