    Oh sure, the stock price is shaky because Musk is a Nazi and people recognize it, as well as their products not at all living up to the hype, and Musk doing things like only using cameras for any self driving.

    The Musk compensation package itself won’t effect the stock price, though, unless you count it as “throw it on the pile of injustice”.

      The Musk compensation package itself won’t effect the stock price

      Maybe not as long as it’s just a piece of paper, but as soon as this compensation begin to actually have to get paid, you can bet it will have an impact.
      I sincerely hope the Norwegian fun pulls out, and even if they try to do it slow to not impact the stock value to much to get as much out as possible, there is no way you can put 5% of the stock back to the market without it having an impact.

        It’s not in the market, though. It’s in Musk’s account, and that’s where it’ll stay (for the most part). Especially options.

          Doesn’t matter, when the stock is registered it’s diluted, and will impact the numbers in earnings per share, and the total stock value of the company.
          You can’t just issue stock, to increase the value of the company, the stock price will always go down when you issue a significant amount of stock.
