Musk says Twitter deal should go ahead if it provides proof of real accounts. Elon Musk said that if Twitter Inc. could provide its method of sampling 100 accounts and how it confirmed that the accounts are real, his $44 billion deal to buy the company should proceed on its original terms."However, if it turns out that their SEC filings are materially false, then it should not," Musk tweeted early on Saturday.In response to a Twitter user asking whether the U.S. SEC was probing "dubious claims" by the company, Musk tweeted "Good question, why aren't they?".Twitter declined to comment on the tweet when contacted by Reuters.Twitter on Thursday dismissed Musk's claim that he was hoodwinked into signing the deal to buy the social media company, saying that it was "implausible and contrary

Perhaps if TSLA investors keep supporting and pushes up its price way above $1,000, Mr Musk can then re-consider buying Twitter at its original offered price since he can sell a small portion of his holdings at much higher prices to easily fund his purchase. All depends on TSLA investors 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

He alleged that Twitter misrepresented the information about the true number of false and spam accounts on the platform.“Twitter’s own disclosures to the Musk parties show that although Twitter touts having 238 million ‘monetizable daily active users,’ those users who actually see ads (and thus, would reasonably be considered ‘monetizable’) is about 65 million lower than what Twitter represents,” Musk said in a court filing.In response, Twitter’s board chairman Bret Taylor published a tweet saying Musk’s allegations “are factually inaccurate, legally insufficient, and commercially irrelevant.” Taylor also provided a link to Twitter’s 127-page response, adding the company is looking forward to the upcoming trial in Delaware, scheduled for October 17.The social media giant also said Musk’s claims about being misled are implausible and added that Tesla’s CEO shouldn’t be allowed to back out of the deal solely due to his concerns over the number of spam and bot accounts.“According to Musk, he—the billionaire founder of multiple companies, advised by Wall Street bankers and lawyers—was hoodwinked by Twitter into signing a $44 billion merger agreement,” Twitter said.“The billionaire comes up with representations Twitter never made and then tries to selectively wield the confidential data he received from Twitter “to conjure a breach of those purported representations,” the company added.This morning, Susquehanna analyst Shyam Patil cut the rating on Twitter shares to Neutral from Positive with a $45 per share price target.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9905172915,"gmtCreate":1659843045039,"gmtModify":1703767018610,"author":{"id":"3561596430587504","authorId":"3561596430587504","name":"robot1234","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0a2963eb37c60c5d6d4a8dbcd266952","crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3561596430587504","authorIdStr":"3561596430587504"},"htmlText":"Musk says Twitter deal should go ahead if it provides proof of real accounts.
