    Elon Musk notifies Twitter he is terminating deal. Billionaire Elon Musk wants to end his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter. Musk’s lawyer claimed Twitter failed to comply with its obligations in the merger agreement. Twitter’s board chair Bret Taylor said the company is still committed to closing the deal at the agreed-upon price and plans to pursue legal action to enforce the agreement. “We are confident we will prevail in the Delaware Court of Chancery,” Taylor wrote. Twitter shares were down about 6% after hours on Friday. Twitter has reason to seek to hold Musk to his original terms. The stock has fallen considerably since the board announced it had accepted his offer to buy the company at $54.20 per share. On the day of that announcement, the stock ended the trading day at $51.70 per s
