Congratulations to those who asked for the poison pill. It wasn't used but it still worked. Elon Musk terminated the deal:Didn't the board make a "poison pill"? Wonder what happened that changed things.
The Left: Since Elon Musk will not be its boss and will no longer be able to give the order to re-instate Trump.Lol what does anyone have to gain after this song and dance? So we now know that Twitter DAUs are > 5% spam bots? Do Russian propaganda accounts count as bots?
Huh?The Left: Since Elon Musk will not be its boss and will no longer be able to give the order to re-instate Trump.
As mentioned up thread, I don't think the poison pill provision played much factor. The cratering of Tesla's stock as a result of the news (which increased the effective cost for Musk to buy Twitter), then Twitter's stock itself falling, plus employees internally that don't want Musk owning the company anyways, probably played a much bigger factor.Congratulations to those who asked for the poison pill. It wasn't used but it still worked. Elon Musk terminated the deal:
Elon Musk notifies Twitter he is terminating deal
"Twitter has not complied with its contractual obligations," an attorney for Musk wrote.www.cnbc.com
He blames Twitter and probably that's to get out of the termination fee.
If Twitter wants the fee, it now has to go to court to prove that it's not its own fault.
Huh?...
Same as in Elon Musk's case. He could have taken Tesla private in 2018 and Twitter in 2022 "if he had not been on twitter"....Many (including myself) feel that Trump most likely would have won the last election if he had not been on twitter....
O, gosh, I thought the election was stolen...rigged..And I actually WANT Trump back on Twitter AND I want Joe Rogan to let Trump on. DONT Silence Trump. Let him speak as much as he wants...unfiltered..

Nope. Twitter isn't going to ask for the 1B.
Disagree. 5%, 8%, even 15%, i.e., 3x, might be a reasonable guess, but 50% (10x) is not. Obviously the jury will decide where to draw taht line.Nope. Twitter isn't going to ask for the 1B.
They're going to ask he pay full price as he agreed to for the whole company.
Burden of proof is on Elon, not twitter, in such a case....and it's a pretty massive burden based on the history of such cases in Delaware courts.
One company- ever- has gotten out of a purchase agreement this way- and it was by proving the company they were buying had intentionally engaged in repeated federal regulatory fraud... not that "the guess about bots they admit in their SEC filings is a guess turned out wrong"

Not saying its 50%, but Elon will have to prove that's far from 5% to win in court.

Twitter can't afford to litigate this. It doesn't have the time or money and the publicity of a trial will bury the company. I predict this will settle.
