I don’t know about now, but at one point, Tesla was worth more than all other car companies combined. Musk has created that stock price because big investors know he will do almost anything, including lying, swatting the families of whistle blowers, committing securities fraud with very little consequence, or sacrificing worker safety, to keep that price high.
If Musk leaves, there probably isn’t someone who will replace him that (1) has no morality or that is not afraid of getting caught or (2) is willing to go to great lengths to avoid any consequences of their actions.

Just bear in mind that all these shady practices might have a short-term positive effect on the internal cost matrix but at the same time a lasting negative effect on the external reputation / revenue. I recently read a lot of posts in EV forums where potential buyers bring up Musk as a major factor not to buy a Tesla.
For me personally, the cars as well as the stock would be far more interesting without that manchild of a CEO.
There are two reasons why I do not buy Tesla. 1) Elon musk. 2) absence of CarPlay. If Elon is gone, there is no reason(1), and I am sure CarPlay will be implemented quite soon after that.

I imagine the stock plummets if he leaves.
