Elon's Wake-Up Call

Greg Guenthner:

Musk's DOGE Days Could End Soon, Trump Suggests

Elon Musk's chainsaw-wielding tour of the federal bureaucracy as a special government employee will eventually come to a close, President Trump suggested to reporters on Monday.

As Musk guides a team throughout a dramatic upheaval of federal agencies at a breakneck pace, he's on a tight timeline as a "special government employee." That designation means he is confined to 130 days of service during a one-year period.

"He's got a big company to run ... At some point he's going to be going back," Trump said of the richest man in the world Monday. "He wants to. I'd keep him as long as I could keep him… There will be a point at which the secretaries will be able to do this work."

NVIDIA = Ford in 1982

By the early ‘80s, Ford was viewed as a relic of the past – too bloated, too slow, and too vulnerable to foreign competition from Japan’s rising automakers like Toyota and Honda. The U.S. economy had also just endured a brutal recession, and demand for cars had plummeted.

While most investors were avoiding Ford, Peter Lynch, then managing Fidelity’s Magellan Fund, saw the potential. Ford was cutting costs, innovating new models, and preparing for a recovery and when the auto cycle would eventually turn. The company was absurdly cheap.

Lynch loaded up on shares. By 1985, Ford’s business had improved, the economy had rebounded, and the stock had skyrocketed. Those who had bought at the depths of its crisis saw returns of several hundred percent in just a few years.

Right now, plenty of high-quality companies are in the same position Ford was in during the early 1980s. I'm mean giants like Nvidia, Meta Platforms, and Alphabet.
