Elon Musk hits back after ‘Big Short’ investor said he ‘just wants to sell Tesla’
Elon Musk has responded to the accusation by Michael Burry that he “just wants to sell Tesla” to capitalise on its enormous value while the share price is still high. The founder of the electric vehicle company tweeted that the investor made famous by The Big Short is a “broken clock”. There was some confusion on Twitter over Mr Musk’s tweet as the saying is that a broken clock is right twice a day — some users wanted to know if Mr Burry was indeed correct this time — though the intended meaning is believed to be that Mr Burry’s predictions are incorrect the vast majority of the time.
Early on Monday, he tweeted: “Let’s face it. @elonmusk borrowed against 88.3 million shares, sold all his mansions, moved to Texas, and is asking @BernieSanders whether he should sell more stock. He doesn’t need cash. He just wants to sell $TSLA.” The investor made the claim a few days after delivering a dire warning for the economy tweeting that stock market speculation has reached levels not seen since before the 1929 crash, and assets are more over-valued than before the dot-com bubble burst. Mr Burry has since appeared to delete all of his tweets, but his account remains active. An archive account has preserved images of his posts. He has deleted his Twitter account on previous occasions when tweets have gotten him into trouble with investors. Last week Mr Burry claimed that Mr Musk had taken out personal loans against the stock and suggested that the founder of Tesla was selling shares to service those debts.

Google executives tell employees it can compete for Pentagon contracts without violating its principles.
Google executives told employees last week in a companywide meeting that it is interested in a Pentagon contract for cloud computing and that working for the military would not necessarily conflict with principles created by the company for how its artificial intelligence technology would be used. Google is pursuing the contract three years after an employee revolt forced the company to abandon work on a Pentagon program that used artificial intelligence and to establish new guidelines against using A.I. for weapons or surveillance.
The pursuit potentially sets up another clash between company leaders and employees. Google’s cloud unit prioritized preparation for a bid on a Pentagon contract, The New York Times revealed this month, pulling engineers off other projects to focus on creating a winning proposal. The rush to pursue the contract is a dramatic shift for Google, which said in 2018 that it would not bid on a major cloud computing contract with the Defense Department, known as the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure, or JEDI, because the work would conflict with its A.I. principles. The JEDI cloud computing contract was estimated to be worth $10 billion over 10 years, and was awarded to Microsoft in 2019. But facing legal challenges from Amazon, the Pentagon scrapped the contract in July and announced a new plan to purchase cloud computing technology. The new version of the contract, known as the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability, will split the work between multiple companies.
