Elon Musk loses $200 billion + Twitter and Tesla Updates Jan 02, 2023

Show notes

According to a report by Bloomberg, Twitter CEO Elon Musk has become the first person to lose a staggering $200 billion in net worth. This significant drop in wealth can be largely attributed to the decline in value of Musk's shares in electric vehicle company Tesla, of which he is CEO. The value of these shares has decreased by 65% in 2022 and plummeted by 11% in a single day last week. At its peak in November 2021, Musk's fortune was estimated at $340 billion by Bloomberg's Billionaires Index, and he is currently worth $137 billion. Musk was previously the world's wealthiest person, but has recently been overtaken by European fashion magnate Bernard Arnault, the head of LVMH. Along with the challenges facing Tesla, Musk has also faced controversies surrounding his management of Twitter, which he acquired for $44 billion. The platform has struggled financially and has faced criticism for its handling of free speech issues, leading Musk to describe it as a "plane that is headed toward the ground at high speed with the engines on fire and the controls don't work."

Show notes

SpaceX launched the first batch of a new generation of Starlink satellites into orbit early Wednesday (Dec. 28) and nailed a rocket landing at sea to mark a record 60th flight of the year. A Falcon 9 rocket topped with 54 upgraded Starlink internet satellites — the first generation 2 (Gen2) versions of the SpaceX fleet — lit up the predawn sky with a smooth launch at 4:34 a.m. EST (0934 GMT) from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

Elon Musk Says SEC violates his free speech + Starlink exceeds 1 million users - CrossCast Dec 28, 2022

Show notes

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is denying allegations that it is violating Elon Musk's free speech rights by trying to enforce a 2018 securities fraud settlement. The commission, in an appeals brief filed late Thursday, said Musk, the chief executive of Tesla, waived his First Amendment rights by agreeing to the settlement and amendments. It also rejected Musk's argument to scrap the agreement because he signed it under financial duress and didn't understand it. #elonmusk #business #news Learn more about your ad choices.

Elon Musk Stepping Down As CEO of Twitter + Mastadon and Twitter Employee Quits Dec 23, 2022

Show notes

Musk is under increasing pressure from prominent Tesla investors to appoint a Twitter successor and re-devote himself to the electric car company. Tesla's stock price has continued to plummet, even as Musk has actively discussed finding a replacement, which suggests that he and his investors are in for more difficulties down the road. Some potential candidates for the role of Twitter CEO include Jason Calacanis, David Sacks, and others who advised Musk in the early days of his acquisition of the company. CNN even mentioned Jared Kushner as a possibility, based solely on the fact that he was seen with Musk at the final World Cup match in Qatar. Learn more about your ad choices.
