Musk is the largest beneficiary of all the fake accounts pumping his follower count.

He basically lives on twitter so he knows everything perfectly. He should pay the 54$/share as per the contract he signed.

The stock market crashed and it keeps going down so he wants to negotiate a different price, that's all there is to it. Buyer's remorse due to deterioration of macroeconomic enviornment.

And the credulity of people believing a billionaire would come to save them because he's "not caring about economics at all"...

Fake accounts don't pump TSLA stock. They have no purchasing power. And he has a large enough following that it really doesn't matter what the number next to his name is, whether it's 30 million or 90 million.

But I agree with you that it sounds like he's got buyer's remorse. Seems like free speech (or whatever the public reason he stated for buying Twitter) isn't worth that much to him.

They might have purchasing power, how do you know?
