Re Keyman risk. How come nobody talks about this? Name a bigger consortium of companies, subject to this risk.
I don’t wish ill on anybody. If Elon evaporated from the Earth tomorrow, SpaceX and Tesla are nearly zeros. Maybe not immediately, but on a long-term trend line they’re zeros.
Why does nobody talk about this? Or ask this question?
A risk manager, who doesn’t factor this in at all, is not a risk manager.
Author highlights extreme key-man risk in Elon Musk's companies (SpaceX, Tesla), arguing they would trend toward zero value long-term if Musk were no longer involved, and criticizes risk managers for not addressing this factor.
无外部数据佐证。Author argues Tesla faces extreme key-man risk and would trend to zero value long-term without Elon Musk. However, this is a hypothetical risk scenario rather than analysis of current business fundamentals, catalysts, or market conditions—confidence is low as it's speculative concern rather than evidence-based thesis.
