He sold his company to himself?

He paid himself from his other company's checkbook? He must be sad about how much Tesla stock is down or needed to pay back his loans from when he bought Twitter.
Billionaire version of paying a credit card bill with another credit card.

I think so. My post was my take on it. Considering I know he owns X, and he borrowed a bunch to buy it and take it private. Not sure if he owns xAI outright or not.

Fox: Pain. Let's hope it's short term. We are looking at the markets, inflation is back on the front burner singeing stocks. All major indices lost any ground they had gained for the week and they are deeper in the red for the month

You sound like me now be careful!!!!
Recessions happen. If you predict one every quarter you will eventually be right.
But I'm guessing most everyone is predicting the upcoming one.

This is a chart of the Total US Stock Market (VTI) divided by the Total World Stock Market (VT). You can see that coming out of the GFC, the US has consistently outperformed the world for more than 15 years. (Chart would head down if VT was stronger.)
But, this long term monthly trendline just broke. That of course does not mean that this trend is certain to change direction, but it had already been weakening as shown by the decreasing gap between the chart line and the trend line.
When trends go on this long, people start thinking that it is just the way it is. But, if you look at historic charts, there are times in the past that other regions of the world have had long periods of outperformance of the US.
I'm not making predictions as despite the economic idiocy of our leadership, the US economy is still quite strong, but I will be following this trend to see what happens.
