Wondering how far we are from Elon declaring "those unwilling to pay $54.20 per share of Twitter -- a price at which I've already said I overpaid -- are against free speech!"

@mmasnick@mastodon.social "I'll give you a dollar to buy you out of Twitter" would qualify as an inbound request to invest in Twitter.

@mmasnick@mastodon.social at the same price that Elon paid. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That was at least 2x what Twitter was worth BEFORE Elon wrecked it. Only an utter moron would invest at this price. Or, actually, come to think of, any price...

The operative part of the note is "year end closing". That's desperation, given how long it can take to close a transaction of this nature. @mmasnick@mastodon.social

@mmasnick@mastodon.social This might be my favorite part: "Gerber said he’s considering it but wants to get a clearer idea of what the plan is. 'One could argue he has created value or destroyed value at Twitter. It’s hard to tell at this point,' he said." Is it, though? Is it really hard to tell?

@mmasnick@mastodon.social To anyone thinking of investing, I suggest you wait a few weeks when Twitter will be listed as a penny stock.

@mmasnick@mastodon.social I guess his target audience knows that "invest at this absurd valuation or Mr Musk will unleash his army of rabid monkeys on you" is understood though unstated.

@mmasnick@mastodon.social Twitter shares weren't worth $30 when he paid $54.20, and he's absolutely tanked it since. What a clown show.

@mmasnick@mastodon.social Hey, I got a great deal for you. It’s the largest passenger vessel ever to sail the North Atlantic. I’m going to sell you shares at my price, only $54.20 per share. Because that’s what I paid. Never mind the iceberg. We can recover.
