TheAuthority Posted December 1, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2022 TSLA stock up 7.7% today. Sounds like a big swing but having been invested in them for over 10 years those sort of swings aren't unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 2, 2022 Moderator Share Posted December 2, 2022 How much do you reckon Twitter was actually worth? It seems that of a number of mistakes Musk has made here, number one was his valuation of a loss making platform. I saw an analyst who had valued it a $25bn rather than $44bn - if that's the case I'm guessing it's value has fallen since the sale - I wonder how much he's already out of pocket.

Genie Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) I guess he’s out the $44bn he paid, plus the reported $4m a day it was losing (35 days x $4m) = $140m Then any debt it had when he bought it. Then I guess revenue is down quite a bit so the $4m a day has probably grown. About 44.2 billion dollars and climbing for an app that is haemorrhaging money. At $4m a day it’ll be costing him nearly $1.5bn A YEAR to keep going. Edited December 2, 2022 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you actually think he did due diligence before making his offer? When he actually started thinking about his offer, he tried to pull out of the deal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he actually started thinking about his offer, he tried to pull out of the deal Yeah, he knew he'd **** up as soon as he tried to back out. I bet the owners couldn't believe his offer. Takeovers normally come with staged payments depending on the continued financial performance of the company. You can bet your top dollar that they'll claim he's destroyed the profitability of the company through his actions. I reckon some expensive lawyers are going to make a killing on this as it rumbles on. He'll go hell for leather at the former owners if it's liquidated within 12 months of the acquisition.

Genie Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 I bet that $1bn penalty for not completing the deal looks mighty attractive now. If only he could have invented a time machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted December 9, 2022 Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2022 Since Musk has taken over Twotter, what appears in our company account timeline is very different. Today its the American Actress and the English Prince. I couldn't give a f***, neither could the company. Now we do follow a few news outlets so you expect it from those sources and its all usually ignorable but its the sheer volume of tweets from sources we don't follow that are now in our timeline makes it pretty useless as a tool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted December 9, 2022 Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2022 The article on Vice that wikipedia founder tweeted is an interesting read on the Musk / Twitter feud. TL:DR - Musk is taking absolute bollocks to suit his agenda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
