April 13, 20223 yr 4 hours ago, Procus said: So what do you see going forward - will Musk be content with his current holdings, increase his stake in the company? Do you see him attempting to wrestle control? Trying to predict Musk is an utterly useless endeavor. The guy is a genius and also certifiable. He is also a professional troll - just remember "funding secured.” If I had to bet, I’d wager he’s mainly just screwing around. Any lawyer worth a damn would be telling him not to launch a tender for the shares - he is already embroiled with the SEC, and it’s a bad look to have agreed to join the board and then back out and go hostile. But…it’s Musk. So I wouldn’t rule out anything.
April 13, 20223 yr Just to add on, here’s a few pertinent questions: 1. When he first agreed to join the board, did Musk sign an NDA of any kind? 2. Even without an NDA, in his conversations with management, was he exposed to any material, non-public info? Number 2 will be the key. If he launched a tender, the SEC will go bananas wanting to know about every conversation and if he had any inside info. And Twitter management wouldn’t be in a mood to help him. You get that close to management and becoming an insider, you are begging for an inquiry if you buy or sell stock.

That's because he settled, and now he's suing to undo that settlement. Like I said, with Musk...anything is possible. Just sit back and enjoy the show.

Only will matter if other, real investors follow suit, which I doubt happens. Quote Musk Sued Over Alleged Delay in Disclosing Twitter Stake (2) By Bob Van Voris (Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk was sued by a Twitter Inc. shareholder who claims the Tesla Inc. CEO’s delay in disclosing his ownership of more than 5% of the social media company artificially kept its share price down. Marc Bain Rasella sued Musk for securities fraud in Manhattan federal court Tuesday, claiming Musk was required to disclose his holdings to the SEC by March 24. Musk’s delay in filing the disclosure allowed him to buy more shares at a lower price and cheated the sellers of Twitter sales of increased profits, Rasella claims. Musk didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Twitter declined to comment on the suit. The investor said that, when Musk filed the form revealing his Twitter stake, company shares rose 27%, from $39.31 on April 1 to $49.97 on April 4. Rasella is seeking to represent a class of investors who sold Twitter shares from March 24 to April 1. The case is Rasella v. Musk, 22-cv-03026, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

April 14, 20223 yr A carrot and a stick with that offer. Those shares will nosedive if the offer isn't accepted.
April 14, 20223 yr I've just seen that offer from Musk. In certain quarters, Twitter is exploding with outrage and I do get a certain level of entertainment from it. The times, they are a changing, it seems.
April 14, 20223 yr If only Trump weren't so poor, he could afford to buy out Twitter himself and reinstate his own account. Instead the pretend-billionaire has been panhandling to get his 40 year old plane fixed. Ya hate to see it.

However, of course there are risks with misuse with these types of platforms as well as we found out with Trump and as the article also pointed out. The tricky part is finding the right workable balance. There were some suggestions as to how to start to find a way forward that provides a positive impact on society overall and helps address the negatives. Decent ideas though I wasn't convinced they'd make a significant impact.

The article called for better moderation/safeguards, which is the term used in the Tweet that he posted. Either way, he was dismissive of the negative impact. Solutions aside, it presents some very real threats to our stability and national security.
