In the early hours of Sunday, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO, Elon Musk took to Twitter to share some of his investing tips.
He advised his followers to buy stocks in companies that make products and services they believe in as part of a long-term strategy.
As I have been asked a lot:
Buy stock in multiple companies that make products and services that *you* believe in.
Only sell if you think their products and services tend to deteriorate. Don’t panic when the market does.
It will serve you well in the long run.

People started responding to his tweet. Here is what one of his followers said:
brother you just sold $TSLA stock last week. You know very well that there are other reasons to sell stocks besides products and services that tend to deteriorate. Make that clear, before some idiot writes an article titled:
