Elon Musk’s daughter, Vivian Jenna, has made some controversial statements recently regarding her father’s golden goose, Tesla. The estranged daughter of Musk made the comments on a live stream recently after an interview with Teen Vogue. Tesla stock has dropped by 50% since December 2024, since the very public backlash the company has experienced due to Musk’s new role at the Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE. So the insiders at Tesla were hoping for a revival of the company’s fortunes. But with Vivian Jenna making these very public statements, the writing may be on the wall for Tesla.
Do the statements by Elon Musk’s daughter have any truth to them?
Vivian Jenna has always had a rocky relationship with her father, Elon Musk. Being one of 13 children ensured that she was always going to have to compete for her father’s attention. So the troublesome relationship reached fever pitch during the covid 19 pandemic according to Jenna. She recalls one of the last conversations they had was an argument over wearing a mask.
Her statements follow a string of problems recently for Tesla, and indeed Musk. The company, which was once a leader a global leader in the EV market, has suffered tremendous losses recently. So her statements that Tesla is essentially a ponzi scheme was certainly worrying. However, one must ask if their is any truth or evidence to her statements or are they simply the rantings of a neglected child?
While the statements offer an insight into Musk’s very secret private life, she offered no evidence to back up her statements. And market insiders have pointed out that the host seemed to pose questions that were more controversial than informative. Going for a headline as opposed to any actual proof to her statements. Her reasoning for the statement was that Tesla offered a similar P/E ratio as a ponzi scheme. Not the worst thing said about Tesla recently.
Can Tesla, and Musk, return to the top of the global automotive market despite Jenna’s statements?
Tesla is moving forward with its plans, despite Jenna’s statements and all the public backlash. So, can the automotive company make a return to success and once again lead the world with its unique designs and innovative engineering? Musk will surely be hoping so. While Tesla dealerships across the United States and more recently in Europe(Switzerland) are vandalised and Tesla cars set on fire, the statements by Jenna have only added fuel to the figurative fire.
As part of her interview on the live stream with a “political commentator”, she made some statements about her childhood and the way her father used to scream at employees over the phone while his children were sitting, horrified in the car on the way to school. She also mentioned that some people have blamed her transitioning as the cause of Musk’s supposed deep dive into right wing American politics. Something she refutes.
Her statements outlined the fact that Musk only put on the appearance of being left wing in the early days of Tesla, because that is what the market and his customers were looking for. A “Tony Stark” type that cared about the planet and the human race. All lies according to Vivian Jenna Wilson. His apparent true right wing colors came to the surface around 2016 according to Jenna.
Can Tesla rule the automotive sector once again? Is Musk the problem?
While his new “best friend” looks to strengthen the United States, Musk’s role at DOGE has everyone wondering what the effects will be at Tesla? And according to Musk’s own daughter, these are simply the surface area issues that are coming up. According to her, the problems with her father, and therefore Tesla, are deep and much more serious than the public has been led to believe. So what effect will her statements have on the already drowning Tesla stock? With all eyes on Musk and anything relating to him, her statements surely will have a negative effect. Or will the world simply not care?
