Elon Musk Seeks Dismissal of Lawsuit Over Delayed Twitter Stake Disclosure

Musk argues the delay in revealing his 9.2% Twitter stake was a mistake, not an attempt to defraud shareholders.

  • Musk claims he misunderstood the SEC disclosure rule and intended to reveal the stake at the end of 2022.
  • Investors allege Musk's delay saved him over $200 million by allowing him to buy more shares at lower prices.
  • The lawsuit, led by an Oklahoma public pension fund, accuses Musk of violating SEC rules by delaying disclosure.
  • Musk denies any conspiracy with a Morgan Stanley banker to secretly amass Twitter shares.
  • The SEC is also investigating Musk's Twitter stock purchases.
