Advice for CEOs on the New Administration: Consult the Playbook

November 29, 2024  •  National Review

With Tesla stock spiking to over $300 and Elon Musk being tapped for a role driving government efficiency in the Trump administration, it seems that Musk made a good bet going all-in on Donald Trump.
