Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) is continuing to move higher Monday after the stock notched gains during seven of the last eight trading days.
SkyBridge Capital's Anthony Scaramucci issued a warning to Tesla short sellers after driving a Tesla vehicle for the first time over the weekend.
"I would get out of the way of Elon Musk if I were you," Scaramucci said Monday on CNBC's "Squawk Box."
The SkyBridge Capital founder was, obviously, impressed.
"I drove the Tesla last night. Just a big heads up to every short. First time in a Tesla, the car is a spaceship," Scaramucci said. "You don't want to get in the way of a spaceship that's moving silently on the road. I would just point that out to the shorts."
