JPMorgan says Tesla still owed 228,775 shares when it terminated the deal, and that
those shares are worth $162,216,628.81 based on Tesla’s stock price at the time.
(Potentially worse for JPMorgan, it had hedged its warrant agreement with Tesla by
maintaining a short position against Tesla’s stock. When Tesla didn’t settle the
remaining shares, the bank had to buy the same amount on the open market to cover that
hedged bet.)
i was surprised to read this part too. assuming that the author's version of the events are accurate here, my best guess is that the device had not fully powered down, and was in either a low-power/hibernate or find-my-phone mode, where portions of the security subsystem were still powered, hence the device-unlock PIN was still cached. i don't otherwise see how else a fingerprint alone would allow for the device to be unlocked on cold boot.
of course this detail doesn't take away from the rest of the report - great find xdavidhu!
