This guy's whole twitter seems dedicated to nothing but sperging about Elon, with a bit of world cup mixed in. He makes a bunch of unsubstantiated claims about owning "$1.420 billion worth of Tesla stock" and being a billionaire investor, but seems to just be some minor record producer / DJ from Dubai. Of course, he could be some Saudi prince's bored kid, but my doubt meter is registering high on this one.
Are you telling me he spent $44 billion dollars on the thing and isn't the sole owner/main decision maker over someone who invested 2 billion? That doesn't make sense to me.
Just because he spent $44 billion doesn't mean the chunk he purchased is worth $44 billion. From what I understand he offered to buy it for that much basically as a joke, and Twitter/Jack essentially had to sue him/make legal threats to make him go through with it.
Just wanted to point out that Jack actually supported Musk's takeover with his own shares. It was the pajeet CEOs who sued to keep Elon in the game.
As of a recent article by the Washington Post Elon Musk currently holds roughly 13% share. KoGuan, (who reportedly owns 6.3 million shares out of 69.09 million shares) whom has a roughly 9% share seems to be the first large shareholder to throw a stink, however, a former tesla Executive, Herbert Kohler, seems to have an even higher share than Elon Musk currently has in Tesla at 12.98 million shares (According to this capital.com article) which, if the numbers are right, gives him roughly 18.7% share in Tesla, giving him a larger controlling interest than Musk.
Maybe that is the intention, and Elon is bailing out because he knows Twitter is hopeless and is getting some uncomfortable reminders from some powerful people about that truth. People laugh at Twitter dying, but you just know if it did "they" would create something even worse to fill the void. TPTB need something like Twitter.
If that guy became head of Twitter, he'd probably commit suicide by three shotgun blasts to the back of the head.
The first 300 miles of which was the Central Valley. For anyone that's never been, it's flatter than people think Kansas is. They did pull Grapevine, a 5% grade that gains 1,600ft. I'll be impressed when somebody does Alpine Junction to Cheyenne in an EV truck. 442 miles, starting and ending elevations of around 6,000' and 2 passes at 7600' and 8600' either side of Laramie. Even the opposite direction would be somewhat impressive.
Detroit DD16 produces 2050lb/ft at 975 rpm. Quite a few of them kicking around at 105.5K gross. What EV trucks can't do is produce that level of torque for hours on end.
See, my understanding doesn't necessarily contradict yours, but I thought why he tried to pull out was because he plausibly accused Twitter of lying about the number of people vs. bots on the platform, and maybe some other things they were lying about in their official reports.
It’s as simple as he made an offer just before the entire stock market shit itself. Had he waited a month or so he could have bought the whole company for much less.
If this is true and say Saudi's gain control of Twitter, I won't even laugh about Twitter anymore and I'd ask Twitter HQ be relocated to that shit hole where it belongs.
Didn't Null say he was moving, potentially?
Though honestly, if Twitter became more Like KiwiFarms, I'd probably use it. Beats Mastadon.
Twatter HQ is in San Fransisco, a shitholeIf this is true and say Saudi's gain control of Twitter, I won't even laugh about Twitter anymore and I'd ask Twitter HQ be relocated to that shit hole where it belongs.
