Musk's 11-Day Twitter Stake Snooze Just Cost Him a Lawsuit
Elon Musk is now facing a class-action lawsuit after a federal judge ruled that Twitter investors can proceed with their case over his delayed stake disclosure. The saga stretches back to 2022, when the Chief Twit™ disclosed his 5% Twitter stake a whopping 11 days after the SEC deadline—because apparently, even billionaires need a grace period on regulatory filings. Investors are claiming this tardy tweet cost them serious cash, arguing the late reveal messed with share prices and trading outcomes during that juicy 11-day window where the market was blissfully unaware that the world's richest degen had already slid into the Twitter DMs. The ruling now opens the door to potential financial liability for the world's richest meme lord, who apparently thought "move fast and break things" also applied to SEC disclosure rules.
