Full Elon
It’s official, Elon Musk is the owner of Twitter (pending any major deal collapsing).
The Tesla Founder bought Twitter for $44 Billion at $54.20 a share. Even with the premium Musk paid, Twitter shares have underperformed for over a decade. Musk will have the same issue Twitter management has had since going public: how to monetize all their loyal users. We know one thing, do not count Musk out.
The deal is as follows:
Lots of leverage and Tesla stock used as collateral, hopefully, Tesla share prices do not drop significantly. If they do drop in value, there could be a fire sale due to a forced sale from margin requirements.
