Not to defend Musk but really? Burning a spliff triggers an exodus and stock crash but burning billions of investor dollars is a-ok? Anything but the herb, man! Naaaa, not buying it. Cover story for rats jumping a sinking ship that probably is close to BK. The kicker would be if Elon is shorting his own stock through some shell company.
(Note to Elon, you should have done a line of blow instead. That's perfectly fine, even expected, among executives and Wall St.)
