Per Bloomberg TV: Musk will depart from DOGE when his work is complete, per press secretary Leavitt.

TESLA stock is up today, and I suspect some of that due to the belief by some that once he is out of DOGE "everything will be fine", however, I suspect the Cathy Woods and other Wall Street analysts are underestimating the anger he has invoked against his base buyers, the environmentally conscious, along with the competition now becoming available in the market, will not produce the recovery they anticipate.

It's still way overvalued, but the rise the last 5 days isn't close to recovering the lost value.
And, the analysts view has been distorted based upon an ephemeral potential of things that will no longer world-changing nor without direct competition.
So, it's paper wealth. But, any substantial shareholder can't realize gains without risking tanking the whole thing.

Over 150!
Buying that stock is a silly investment beyond some gambling plunge on a few shares.

Except for the parts that dole out contracts to his companies, of course.

he who is charge of nothing - but still talks a lot of sh*t.
(Donnie blithered out something the other day about Musk 'moving on' - and his handlers immediately sprang out of their chairs (and away from their lines of coke) saying, "Wait!, .. What .. ?" )
