Tesla Bear Slams David Sacks As 'Rich Man' Who Spits On 'Working Man' After Entrepreneur Called Biden's Unionization Comments 'Archaic View Of Past'
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
President Joe Biden expressed support for unionization at Tesla and Toyota, which was criticized by entrepreneur David Sacks as an 'archaic view of the past'. Sacks argued that Tesla's non-unionized nature is what makes it innovative. In response, Tesla bear Gordon Johnson argued that Sacks' view is dismissive of the benefits of union jobs for the middle class. Tesla's stock fell 5.46% following the news, partly due to HSBC initiating the stock with a Reduce rating and $146 price target.
