Prominent short seller Jim Chanos mocked Elon Musk’s latest $25 trillion market cap projection for Tesla, according to his post on X. Musk said Tesla’s Optimus robot could exceed the value of all other company products, projecting a 10 billion-unit market worth $25 trillion. Chanos pointed out that these projections echo earlier promises that DOGE would save trillions, which were later revised to just $150 billion.
