I don't see how Elon Musk being at the helm would improve stock price long term. Yes, making Twitter into a libertarian wasteland would lead to a lot of user growth short term -- the Parler people might come back, along with the bot accounts -- but in turn I predict this would lead to plummeting ad revenue and massive disengagement of its existing (very active, dedicated, passionate) user base, as well as a huge amount of noise that just makes its moderation/NLP infrastructure even worse at filtering harmful content. Maybe I'm wrong/missing something though.
- tsimionescu 4y agoElon Musk is offering to buy and own Twitter personally. There would be no Twitter stock if the transaction went through, unless he decides to issue some new stock, or IPo the company again at some point in the future.
