The war of words between Gates and Musk continued as Musk questioned Gates' defense.
Gates questioned the benefit of electric vehicles in an interview with HugoDécrypte.
Gates said that he gives more to climate change than any other person. "I give a lot of philanthropic dollars, I back companies, so we need to solve that other 84%."
Somebody shorting the stock doesn't affect him in any way.
Musk simply replied "Sigh" when he responded to an extract of the interview on the social networking site.

Musk said Gates wasn't serious about climate change because he had a $500 million bet against the company.
Musk said the bet was now worth $2 billion after he confirmed leaked texts showed an exchange.
The net worth of both has fallen by billions of dollars this year as stock markets slide over fears about rising inflation and interest rates
Gates said in the interview that he didn't join Musk, Bezos, and Branson in the space race because he was more focused on fighting diseases.
