At the time,Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA) was trading at $69 a share. If only I had bought a few hundred shares of TSLA stock back then. Today, I’d be lying on a beach somewhere.\nFor those contemplating whether they should bet on Tesla now that it’s trading at over $1,100 a share, I don’t think the actual price matters too much in today’s world of fractional buying.\nWhat’s important is that Tesla still has plenty to prove, including delivering a pickup truck that can compete with&nbsp;Rivian’s(NASDAQ:RIVN) R1T and the rest of the electric startups sprouting up.\nTesla CEO Elon Musk might be selling some of his stock, but I don’t think that means he’s giving up the fight. As long as he’s CEO and involved with the company, I don’t think you should worry yourself with the billionaire’s stock sales.Here’s why.\nMusk Polls Twitter Followers About Selling TSLA Stock\nOn Nov. 6,Musk tweeted&nbsp;the following:“Much is made lately of unrealized gains being a means of tax avoidance, so I propose selling 10% of my Tesla stock. Do you support this?” He went on to add, “I will abide by the results of this poll, whichever way it goes.”\nNearly 58% of the more than 3.5 millionpeople who responded said he should sell. And sell he has. Since Nov. 8, he has&nbsp;sold around 8.16 million shares for $8.8 billion, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. That puts him about halfway to the promised 10% stake.\nTSLA stock fell as much as 20%from itsNov. 5 closing price, the day before Musk’s cheeky tweet. As I write, shares are off around 7%.\nWhile this was the most significant correction in months, it pales in comparison to the drop in the first quarter of the year. TSLA stock plummeted 40% before bottoming out below $56o on March 8.If you purchased shares in early March, congratulations on your timely buy.\nMusk May Have Had No Choice But to Sell\nNow, if you’ve been following this story, you know there’s a bit more to it than Musk putting the fate of billions of dollars in his&nbsp;Twitter(NYSE:TWTR) followers’ hands.\nAs&nbsp;CNBC’s&nbsp;Robert Frank reported on Nov. 7, Musk faced anestimated $15 billion tax bill. Frank&nbsp;does an&nbsp;excellent job explaining the billionaire’s predicament:\n<blockquote>\n The options expire in August of next year. Yet in order to exercise them, Musk has to pay the income tax on the gain. Since the options are taxed as an employee benefit or compensation, they will be taxed at top ordinary-income levels, or 37% plus the 3.8% net investment tax. He will also have to pay the 13.3% top tax rate in California since the options were granted and mostly earned while he was a California tax resident.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Combined, the state and federal tax rate will be 54.1%. So the total tax bill on his options, at the current price, would be $15 billion.\n</blockquote>\nThat’s a big number. But keep in mindMusk is the world’s wealthiest person with a&nbsp;net worth north of $300 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. So, that tax bill amounts toa mere 5% of his net worth.\nAs of June 30,Musk owned about 244 million shares&nbsp;through his trust and stock options. Subtract the 8.16 million he recently sold and you get 235.84 million. Let’s assume he sells another 8.16 million to meet his 10% goal. That still leaves Musk with 227.68 million shares.\nAs I’ve said many times, there’s only one reason insiders buy stock, but there are plenty of reasons insiders sell.The recent sales of TSLA stock by Musk are nothing more than financial and tax planning.\nThe Bottom Line on TSLA Stock\nFor its most recent quarter, Tesla reported&nbsp;record revenue&nbsp;of&nbsp;$13.76 billion and record net income of $1.62 billion. Through the first nine months of 2021, it generated$36.1 billion in revenueand $3.2 billion in net income.\nFor the full year, analysts estimate the company will generate$51.1 billionin sales. That means TSLA stock is trading for 22.3 times this year’s projected sales. While that’s significantly higher than its price-to-sales ratio before shares started to take off in 2020, it’s not unreasonable for a company that looks ready to turn on the cash flow machine in 2022 and beyond.\nAs CFO Zach Kirkhorn stated during the company’s Q3 earnings call, Tesla hit annualized production of&nbsp;more than 1 million vehicles. I’d be shocked if it didn’t&nbsp;hit 2 million&nbsp;by early 2023.\nIf you’re thinking of buying TSLA stock, Musk’s stock sales are the last reason you should use for taking a pass. They’re a non-event.","source":"lsy1606302653667","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why Elon Musk’s Tesla Stock Sales Are a Non-Event</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy Elon Musk’s Tesla Stock Sales Are a Non-Event\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-11-22 08:44 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://investorplace.com/2021/11/why-elon-musks-tsla-stock-sales-are-a-non-event/>InvestorPlace</a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\nI moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia, from Toronto in February 2018.
