I have often said that I am not a big fan of Elon Musk’s communication style. Of course, I respect that he says what he wants, but I still understand that we are the owners of what we are silent about and the servants of what we say. And although I don’t believe in karma, a concept that seems too ideal and beautiful to be true, there is no doubt that our actions on many occasions evoke reactions that are usually adapted to similar standards.
This is not the first time that verbal incontinence has played on Elon Musk. From the absurd controversy over his design of a mini-submarine to rescue children trapped in a cave in Thailand, to becoming a great dogecoin guru on SNL, just when users decided to devalue the cryptocurrency, and focusing on the occasions when his words sounded. some regulators heard and decided to ask him for an explanation.
A soap opera about the purchase of Twitter, which is now suspended, could not be left out of this constant in Elon Musek’s life.

Some of the movements that affected Twitter’s share price, something that in turn affects shareholders.

So how can we read in Yahoo! Finance, The investor condemned Elon Musk and said he was manipulating Twitter’s share price with his reports. And although the complaint has so far been filed by a single investor, it takes the form of a class action lawsuit, so other investors can join it if they also consider themselves affected by the devaluation of the share price caused by Elon Musk’s statement.
Complaint Elon Musk already knew about the estimated number of Twitter bots, mentioned five percent, before signing the purchase. However, according to the plaintiff, he would decide to suspend the purchase and publish the news on Twitter in order to reduce the share price. Something he would comfortably accomplish if that were his goal, as stocks have fallen from $ 54.20 a share these weeks at the time of Musk’s plans to less than $ 40 a share, which are currently listed.
The lawsuit was filed in the state of California, whose legal framework prohibits market manipulationwhich is what Elon Musk says he has done in recent weeks, and the general opinion is that the intention pursued in this way of negotiation would be to force a new price negotiation after the stock price has fallen.
