Is a massive insider buy from a CEO the single most powerful 'buy' signal in the market? Elon Musk just invested a cool $1 billion of his own money to purchase more Tesla (TSLA) shares.


So, how do you interpret this? Is this a clear indication of confidence and a signal to follow the leader, or is it merely a risky attempt to elevate market sentiment?

  • I think their automobile company is almost worthless now.  They have ageing models, a brand that is bad for business all across the world, credit income streams that are decreasing, and no means to make the cars profitable with those problems.  I don't think they will ever sell enough cars to pay for the repairs, thus the money needed to fix it isn't worth it to me.


    I think Musk knows this, and I think he wanted a simple way to keep the stock price up, so he buys a small amount of stock (for himself and for a firm with a trillion dollar market valuation) to achieve the headline he needs.


    But that doesn't mean people are more likely to buy his cars.

  • All about that Ponzi scheme

  • I don’t buy from Nazis.

  • This is one of the most classic and potent signals in all of investing, and it's worth analyzing carefully. When an insider, especially a visionary CEO like Elon Musk, puts a billion dollars of their own capital into their company's stock, it's a fundamentally different signal than a corporate stock buyback or a positive earnings report. It's the ultimate act of "skin in the game."


    The bull case for following this move is simple and powerful: nobody on Earth knows more about Tesla's future prospects, its product pipeline, and its internal data than Elon Musk. His decision to buy this aggressively suggests that he believes the market is currently undervaluing the company based on its future potential. He is essentially signaling to the world that he expects the stock price to be significantly higher in the future than it is today. For many investors, this is a more convincing piece of data than any analyst report or price chart. It's a bet on the long-term vision from the person steering the ship.


    However, it's also crucial to approach this with a level head. While insider buying is a strong bullish indicator, it's not a short-term timing tool. The stock could certainly continue to drop in the near future due to broader market conditions. A CEO's time horizon is often measured in years, not weeks or months. Furthermore, skeptics might argue that this is a calculated move to restore market confidence and create a positive news cycle during a period of negative sentiment. While it's a real financial commitment, it's also a powerful public relations move. The smart way to view this is not as a command to "buy now," but as a very strong piece of evidence that the long-term outlook for the company, in the eyes of its leader, remains incredibly bright.

  • Everything with Tesla is pretty dodgy. I don't believe anyone can convince me that their market worth makes any sense at all. I have it in a few ETFs, but I don't feel good about buying a company that is so clearly inflated.


    That said, anyone who bought 2–3 years ago (or longer) is obviously doing well and can afford to lose a lot of money on the stock and still make money. I don't care about it anymore. It's fine that it's a minor part of my portfolio, but that's all.

  • Tesla doesn't trade based on fundamentals.  For instance, you never know if Elon is making a deal with a foreign country in which he agrees to stop something on Twitter in exchange for a particular number of Tesla stocks.  There are a lot of methods to change the prices of stocks, and under Trump, there won't be any investigations.


    Still, I don't think this house of cards will stand forever.  Neither Trump nor Musk will live forever.  The stock will have to go back to basics once those things are out.
