Elon Musk Tweets Investment Advice For Long Run, But Followers Question His Sale Of Tesla Stock

Benzinga2022-05-02

In the early hours of Sunday, Tesla Inc CEO, Elon Musk took to Twitter to share some of his investment tips.

He advised his followers to buy stocks in companies that make products and services they believe in as a long-term strategy.

People started responding to his tweet. Here is what one of his followers said:

Last week, Musk sold 9.6 million shares of Tesla stock, valued at $8.5 billion, and he wrote on Twitter that "No further TSLA sales planned after today."

Tesla shares, which have plunged 20% in the past month. Musk's share sale comes amid his bid to buy Twitter for $44 billion.

Musk has already secured $25.5 billion of fully committed debt, including $12.5 billion in loans against his Tesla stock.

On Twitter, people started comparing his decision to sell Tesla stocks and how he gives advice on managing his stock portfolio.

Here is how another user reacted.

One of his follower asked for his advice on Dogecoin as well.

Musk has yet to respond with his investment outlook for DOGE. The crypto is trading at $0.1316, down 1.75% in the past 24 hours.

    Well Elon Musk has to find the funds somehow to fund his Twitter acquisition and that is to simply sell his Tesla's shares to help fund it.  So far he has sold 8.5 million dollars worth.  No wonder the Tesla 's share price has dropped 20% so far.

    There will always be naysayers and stick to your guns (investment thesis). This is a once in a lifetime opportunity of a company to me and Elon selling just presents me the opportunity to load up even more shares! 100 shares soon! [Cool]

    Elon Musk needs to secure funds to buy Twitter so selling his Tesla stock does not come as a surprise! Of course, investors will suffer in his scheme  of things!
