“At SpaceX, we never think about the quarter. We never think about it, and we don't think about the stock price," Musk said this week during a Spaces conversation hosted by ARK Investment Management CEO Cathie Wood.
As he knows from leading Tesla, there’s “immense pressure on a public company to not have a bad quarter. So this can actually result in a less efficient operation, where you're going to great lengths at the end of a quarter to not disappoint people.”
