Concerns about intervening US securities authorities?… Get rid of phrases that affect stock prices
[AFP=연합뉴스]
(Los Angeles = Yonhap News) Correspondent Jung Yoon-seop = Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, an American electric vehicle company, posted a mischievous tweet showing Tesla’s growth potential and deleted some of the content.
Musk posted a tweet on the 26th (local time) stating that Tesla could surpass Apple and become the largest company within a few months, but immediately deleted the content “within a few months,” CNBC broadcasts and others reported.
It was observed that Musk had published an article affecting Tesla’s stock price, and then removed the part that would be problematic because of concerns about the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) intervention.
One netizen said on Twitter that “Tesla will be bigger than Apple,” evaluating Tesla’s Fully Autonomous Driving (FSD) feature, and Musk said, “I think Tesla’s chances of becoming the largest company are greater than 0%. “The playful comment.
After that, when other netizens cheered for a good answer saying’greater than 0%’, Musk again commented, saying, “Probably within a few months,” but suddenly deleted only that part.
Tesla eliminated the point that could be interpreted to mean that it could beat Apple within a few months based on market capitalization.

The Washington Post commented that “Musk boasted that it would become the biggest company in a few months, and then deleted the tweet.” Bloomberg reported that Musk, who had been investigated by the SEC over the past tweet issue, said, “It’s unusual for him. I did a rare job.”
In August 2018, Musk was sued by the SEC and fined him after complaining about the “Tesla delisting” tweet.
A Tesla investor recently sued Musk for losing money due to Musk’s tweet, and the Federal Labor Relations Commission issued an order on the 25th to delete the tweet, claiming that Musk had violated the labor law by posting a tweet threatening the union in 2018.
Tesla shares ended at 618.71 dollars, down 3.39% from the previous day, after a sharp fluctuation in Musk’s tweets on the same day.
WP said, “Tesla investors have posted a post urging the purchase of Tesla stock through social media, saying that the SEC should not pay attention to the tweets Musk deleted.”
