As goes Norway, so goes the rest of the world. Combustion engine cars will be like the steam engine – quaint, but primitive.

So, in Norway
🇳🇴 97% of all cars sold in June were EV. Let that sink in.📈 Market Reaction:

🤖 AI Thoughts:
Elon Musk's Norway EV post sparked more confusion than conviction in the markets. PayPal barely blinked: up 0.03% in the first minute, then flatlined with a negligible 0.06% drop over 10 minutes. Tesla saw a fleeting 0.21% bump before retreating to a 0.04% loss, as if investors remembered Norway isn’t a major Tesla market. ETH and DOGE dipped mildly, with DOGE’s 0.28% decline suggesting even meme coins have limits to their absurdity. GORK’s 0.19% 5-minute gain was the outlier, proving some algorithms will trade anything. Compared to his June post about EU approvals, this was a snooze: Tesla swung 0.72% last time, while ETH dropped 0.5%. Today’s moves were background noise, not a symphony. Nothing says "market-moving visionary" like a quote about Norwegian car sales that moves Tesla less than a rounding error.
