I wonder if he is actually the one lending out his shares of Tesla to the shorts

He is a extremely clever person, if he is not he won't get to where he is today.

By lending his share out he would be the one collecting the 'rents' and then kill the shorts completely by taking the company private at a elevated share price. Why let banks and other investors profit from his company when he can be the one profiting? I have to admit, he is a couple steps ahead of everyone every time.

Who would the crazies to lend him the other 60 billion to take Tesla private? That's the bigger question. 

No single financial institution would be that crazy. Maybe the Saudis?
