Elon Musk vows Bill Gates will be ‘obliterated’ if he doesn’t stop shorting Tesla

Elon Musk gave Bill Gates advance warning on Tuesday not to trifle with him again. The Microsoft co-founder faces annihilation if he makes any further attempt to bet against Tesla.

That's because Musk believes he will have transformed the carmaker into an AI colossus worth a staggering $30 trillion as soon as Tesla completes its pivot from selling EVs first and foremost to operating a lucrative fleet of robotaxis and humanoid robots.

“Once Tesla fully solves autonomy and has [its droid] Optimus in volume production, anyone still holding a short position will be obliterated,” he posted to social media on Tuesday. “Even Gates.”

The duo's rivalry became public after an exchange leaked in 2022 showing the world’s wealthiest entrepreneur had refused to support Gates’ charitable work upon learning the latter still had a half billion dollars riding on a wager the Tesla stock price would fall.

“Sorry, but I cannot take your philanthropy on climate change seriously when you have a massive, short position against Tesla, the company doing the most to solve climate change,” Musk wrote in the undated text messages.
