Tesla on my mind 24/7, spending less than 5% of time on Twitter acquisition, says Elon Musk

Multi-billionaire Elon Musk on Friday said that Tesla is on his mind all the time, in a way calming down the investors worried about him being distracted by a Twitter deal that has weighed on the stocks of the electric car manufacturing company. In a tweet, Musk posted a photo where a woman (Tesla) is seen being upset by her boyfriend (Elon) looking at another woman (Twitter). The Tesla CEO said, “So may seem like below, but not true.” “So may seem like below, but not true. To be clear, I’m spending <5% (but actually) of my time on the Twitter acquisition. It ain’t rocket science! Yesterday was Giga Texas, today is Starbase. Tesla is on my mind 24/7.” Musk tweeted.

To be clear, I’m spending <5% (but actually) of my time on the Twitter acquisition. It ain’t rocket science!

Yesterday was Giga Texas, today is Starbase. Tesla is on my mind 24/7.

According to reports, shares of Tesla lost one-third of their value since April this year when Musk revealed his stake in Twitter and sold stocks worth $8.5 billion of Tesla to help finance his $44 billion Twitter deal. Also, COVID-19 induced lockdowns in China has affected production and recently S&P Global Ratings removed Tesla from the the Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) 500 index. At the beginning of this week, S&P Global Ratings announced exclusion of the largest producer of electric cars from the sustainability list citing concerns related to working conditions at Tesla among its reasons.

My offer was based on Twitter’s SEC filings being accurate,” Musk tweeted earlier this week.

This deal cannot move forward until he does.” Read all the Latest News , Trending News ,  Cricket News , Bollywood News , India News and Entertainment News here.
