A comment on Twitter re-examines Elon Musk’s bid, may be more receptive to a deal. Parent comment
Didn't he sell quite a lot of stock last year? Bear in mind he just keeps getting more of it as part of his compensation...
"Elon Musk unleashed a torrent of stock sales, options exercises, tax payment sales and gifted shares last year totaling nearly $22 billion.
Yet even after unloading so much Tesla stock, he still owns a larger share of the company than when he started, thanks to his compensation package.
Musk owns 172.6 million Tesla shares, or a 17% stake, which makes him its single largest individual shareholder."[0]
