Elon Musk and Tesla were found not liable by a jury in a San Francisco federal court on Friday in a class action securities fraud trial stemming from tweets Musk made in 2018. The Tesla , SpaceX and Twitter CEO was sued by Tesla shareholders over a series of tweets he wrote in Aug. 2018 saying he had "funding secured" to take the automaker private for $420 per share, and that "investor support" for such a deal was "confirmed." Trading in Tesla was halted after his tweets, and its share price remained volatile for weeks. "I am deeply appreciative of the jury's unanimous finding," Musk wrote on Twitter. During the course of this trial, Musk also said he would have sold shares of SpaceX to finance a going private deal for Tesla, as well as taking funds from the Saudi Public Investment Fund.
"Elon Musk is doing Elon Musk things," Canaccord's George Gianarikas wrote. Shares in electric vehicle maker Tesla slid by around 9% in mid-day trading on Thursday as analysts grow increasingly uncertain of the company's outlook. The price cuts on Tesla's Model 3 sedan and Model Y crossover are seen as a sign of weakening demand. Buyers of Tesla, and other electric vehicles made in the U.S., will likely qualify for a $7,500 incentive starting in January stemming from Biden's Inflation Reduction Act. Musk took Twitter private in a $44 billion deal that closed at the end of October, selling off around $23 billion in Tesla shares to finance the deal.
