    If he tried to liquidate all of his Tesla shares on the open market over a period of time, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was less than half.

    SpaceX is another story though as it’s not public and he can just do a private sale. He could probably get very close to what his shares are worth, maybe even more as it’s value keeps going up each time they raise money.

      Also the shares will be worth more the less it is controlled by him.

        Maybe longer term, but short/medium term it adds 715 million shares which will increase supply dramatically. The price won’t be able sustain that.
