Realty sector main jaan aa rahi hai

So, @elonmusk, you do know that the proposed tax on UNREALIZED capital gains on billionaires is just that, a proposal, right? Why would you burden yourself with an enormous tax until the proposal becomes tax law, which is highly unlikely? A couple questions for you. 1/

You note that as you earn no salary or bonus the only way to personally pay taxes is to sell stock. What became of the $22 million you received on the sale of Zip2, which you founded with your brother? After paying taxes on the realized gain, did you invest the net proceeds? 2/

After being fired by the PayPal board and replaced by Peter Thiel, PayPal was sold to eBay. You received over $165 million in eBay shares from the sale. Do you still own them? Did you pay taxes on any realized gain and invest the net proceeds? Surely you have non-Tesla assets? 3/

You have committed to owning all of your shares in Tesla for the duration. Why would you break your word simply on a tax proposal until it becomes law? I understand you invested $6.5 million in Tesla when you joined the company in 2004, the year following its founding. 4/

Since joining Tesla, have you made any additional investments in the company or is the majority of ownership derived from share grants? I presume you will ultimately sell shares to finance exercises of expiring stock options instead of continued borrowing and pledging shares? 5/

The divergence that happened between 2017-2019 might be a thing of the past if the broader markets/sectors start doing well. Plenty of signs

I track cos bottoms up, seeing signs of massive capex announcements and growth expectations in Numerous cos. Whether it is spechem or cement cos like Dalmia. It's visible

Though the old investors may not understand technology, the new investors do not understand risk.
MCap
Tesla: $1.02 trillion
Berkshire: $656 billion
Tesla's worth is ~1.5x that of Berkshire, though the revenue of Tesla is less than the profit made by Berkshire

Same old lessons.

Biggest mistake many investors make in highly cyclical sectors like steel, sugar, metals etc.

is that...during upcycle they assume earnings to be structural and get swayed away by optically low valuation thinking it as value buy..

Result... averaging down during fall n disaster

When the upcycle in a sector is very strong
Poorly managed companies also make returns

2021 steel cycle-
SAIL went up from 30 to 120

Now in the current credit upcycle:-
PSU Banks are making money!

But does this mean credit culture has changed for PSU Banks?
No evidence of that
