Is It Time to Restrict Your CEO’s Twitter Account?

Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk recently drew the ire of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) when he tweeted to his 22.3 million followers on Twitter that he was planning to take his company private. On August 7, 2018, Musk tweeted: “Am considering taking Tesla private at $420. Funding secured.” Following this tweet, Tesla’s stock price jumped by over six percent, a significant impact on the market that many attributed to the tweet. The impact was keenly felt by short-sellers, with whom Musk had been feuding.  Tesla later confirmed that a final decision about taking the company private had not yet been reached.
