Is Musk aggressively buying a lot of Twitter stock to play tickets?

Knife horse

Last year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk sold 10% of Tesla stock at a high point, although he paid a certain amount of taxes and related fees to exercise options, Musk actually has a large amount of cash reserves for his foundation, which also provides financial guarantees for other investments. Now we also see news of Musk's investment in Twitter.

1. Musk takes a stake in Twitter

As we all know, Musk has always been a deep user of Twitter, and it can be said that he is also the "big V" of Twitter, and now he wants to be the boss when he invests in Twitter? In fact, although Musk has some companies, especially Tesla and Space X, who are the most famous, they still think too much about buying Twitter.

So why did Musk take a stake in Twitter? I believe that many people also expressed curiosity. According to regulatory filings filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Musk bought 73.487 million shares of Twitter's common stock through his trust in mid-March; he now holds a 9.2 percent stake in the social media and has become Twitter's largest shareholder.

Because of Musk's stake, Twitter's stock price soared 28% on the day. Musk is now the world's richest man, with hundreds of billions of assets, even if it is not difficult to buy Twitter, after all, Twitter's market value is only $40 billion. But will Musk do that? In fact, the acquisition of Twitter does not mean much to Musk.

Even if Musk likes to speak on Twitter, even many times, it can almost affect the benefits brought by his remarks on Twitter, and his voice on Twitter several times directly brings the virtual currency up or down. While Musk doesn't admit that he has so much power to speak on Twitter, it is.

2. Is buying Twitter for a financial investment?

If you invest in Twitter, will it bring a good return to Musk? I believe many people do not believe it, because Twitter's market performance in recent years is almost a "mess", and there is no beautiful report card that can carry Twitter's future. That's why former CEO Dorsey was forced to resign. So I think Musk invested in Twitter for investment, and I believe that no one will believe it?

So, does Musk want to change Twitter? As we all know, Musk likes to speak on Twitter, and facebook and Instagram used to be available, but because of Zuckerberg's philosophy, Musk has long since withdrawn from these two platforms and put almost all of his voice on Twitter.

It is worth noting that Musk's voice on Twitter has indeed brought good word-of-mouth marketing benefits to him and Tesla. This is also indisputable, as long as Musk speaks out on Twitter, it will bring a lot of shock. This may be one of the reasons why he values Twitter so much?

Today, Musk has more than 80 million followers on Twitter, and any "wind and grass" musk will make Twitter show extreme publicity and enthusiasm. This kind of influence, Musk is undoubtedly a unique force on Twitter.

Even several times, Musk publicly "called" the SEC on Twitter and was sued to the law, and the SEC even asked Tesla to restrain Musk from speaking on Twitter.

3. Will Musk reshuffle Twitter's board?

Some people speculate that Musk bought Twitter in a big way to get on Twitter's board. Now that Musk is Twitter's largest individual shareholder, it wouldn't be difficult for Musk to join Twitter's board. There is also speculation that Musk does not like Agarvar, the new CEO of Twitter who took office last December, mainly because he has publicly mocked and questioned Agarvar on the Twitter platform several times. The latest news suggests that Musk will join Twitter's board.

So will twitter be taken to get rid of Agarwal?' If it's just for this, then isn't the price too high? Twitter's last CEO, Dorsey, is Musk's good friend, is it to give his friends a blow? In fact, in terms of Musk's cleverness and "cunning", this is only one of them, not the only one.

More importantly, the market has previously reported that Musk wants to build his own personal social platform, if the previous influence and financial resources are not enough, then with the world's richest man today, it seems that it is not difficult to launch a social platform. Just creating a new social platform is not a one-day effort, nor is it achieved overnight. Instead of repeating this, is it feasible to acquire one?

Or, even if you don't acquire, it is not impossible to exert your influence by participating in the shares, bringing about some changes, or changing personnel. Maybe that's another reason Musk took a stake in Twitter? In fact, the market has speculated that Musk's stake in Twitter is to change his management. If Twitter is given more of Musk's personal will, is Twitter still the original Twitter? If Musk advocates more "respect" personal speech and speech, will Twitter "follow in the footsteps of Facebook's once chaotic mess"?
