A jury has found Elon Musk liable for misleading investors by deliberately driving down Twitter’s stock price in the tumultuous months leading up to his 2022 acquisition of the social media company for $44 billion. But it absolved him of some fraud allegations, finding that he did not “scheme” to mislead investors.

He made $400B, not Twitter. That’s almost entirely from Tesla and other ventures, not Twitter.
Last I’ve been able to find Twitter was valued at $33B when xAI bought it. But that was clearly an overvalued sale. Just look at the valuation over time.
And that’s just raw valuation which is easily manipulated, not revenue or profit, which can be easily manipulated.
that is the worst chart
Ahh, okay. I understand. Thank you for the clarification.
