Don't forget how recently he really started driving away the advertisers and how close we are to the end of the year. I see it as a very hopeful start.

$75m in 5 weeks. That’s a run rate of $780m per year. That is not a small chunk of revenue.

75 bucks is the minimum though. It could be like... 37 billion.

X is already worth less than half of buying price. And this is income loss, not net worth. Which will eventually lead to the later or if not to bankruptcy.
