CNBC Doesn't know what to think about Elon and Twitter.

Elon is using his fortune as a blunt force instrument to frick with the world and they aren't use to a person with so much money that taking a potential loss doesn't bother him.
This must have been what it was like when Howard Hughes was on the move (minus the OCD issues)

They should understand this better than anyone. George Soros has funded essentially every insidious democrat scheme for the last 20 years.

He’s not going to take a loss. I don’t think he will be successful in his takeover and I’m not sure he even wants to be. However, either way, he will make money.

Elon is beyond “frick you” money. He’s got “frick ME” money where he can hurt himself financially to prove a point.
That’s the ultimate position in life. Truly alpha male money

I want to be there when some 300 lb tranny gives the “We will continue to be the Bulwark against the Nazis” speech.

Yup. So it's more that they don't know how to handle opposition to them on the same playing field they have owned. It's like a white guy going to play bball in the heart of the hood, and owning the court.
Would be great if after this he goes after another major corp...say like....disney. May not be able to by himself, but its time the Right has a group of advocate investors with a plan. Anyone on the left that gets upset just needs to be pointed to what is happening over at Exxon.

My question is this. If the board doesn’t take the above value offer, have they acted in the best interest of the shareholders? Isn’t that their fiduciary responsibility? Could a class action by shareholders be a slam dunk?
No matter what shite will be interesting

Disagreed. He's not that liquid as the majority of his wealth is tied to his Tesla stock (somewhere around 70% a couple years ago). It's a terrible idea to take your wealth out of Tesla and put it in Twitter.

He will borrow the money to avoid capital gains tax.

He’s worth 200+ billion. 54 billion isn’t really a gamble.

Ehh maybe not but the post I responded to said he won't lose money. I'm just saying I think twitter is a loser even under an Elon ownership.

He doesn't give a frick about the money. His childrens, childrens, children will never have to work a day in their lives even with 10 billion dollars.
No way that the board in all of their incompetence accepts the deal though.

Google was once just a search engine, now many other tie ins. Twitter search, movies etc.
Coup de grace, Twitter AI.

If they don't take his offer then Musk can invoke a hostile takeover....
