Tesla Inc Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk sold about 5.23 million shares in the electric vehicle maker, worth about $4.5 billion, in multiple open market sales on April 28, a securities filing showed on Friday.

Elon Musk sold roughly $8.4 billion worth of Tesla shares this week, following his bid to take Twitter private, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO offloaded about 4.4 million shares of his electric vehicle company in trades on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The first of the CEO’s sales were made on Tuesday, the filings showed. Tesla shares fell 12% that day.

As the filings became public on Thursday night, Musk wrote on Twitter, “No further TSLA sales planned after today.” He made the remark in response to an account that heavily promotes Tesla stock, products and Musk on the social network.
