With the deal completed, Twitter is once again a private company. Its shares stopped trading nearly nine years after it went public under the symbol TWTR on the New York Stock Exchange.

Musk agreed to buy Twitter in April and take it private before trying to get out of the deal, claiming Twitter misrepresented the number of spam and fake accounts on its platform, which Twitter denied. Twitter sued Musk to complete the purchase. Earlier this month, Musk offered to buy Twitter at the original price of $54.20 a share. A Delaware Court of Chancery judge delayed the trial that had been set for Oct. 17 to give the two sides more time to reach a deal.

Morgan Stanley and Bank of America were among the banks that provided debt financing for the Musk takeover. Equity investors included Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, Marc Andreessen and Oracle founder Larry Ellison.

    1. Yes, listen to the way he finished his statement. He was about to start rambling but they were yelling at him in the ear piece to stop.
      They already let it slip on one of the msm outlets that they are constantly yelling at him to stop talking about different topics while feeding him lines off stage.

  1. Well if the Saudis would have pumped some oil for us when I begged them to, it wouldn’t be a problem, but since they didn’t … oh well.

  2. This is cruel 😢, you really shouldn’t ask this man such difficult questions, just stick to asking questions that only require a yes or no answer, for instance do you need to go pee pee? Or have you already done pee pee?

  3. Gosh. So much hate and ridicule in these comments from people who have no idea what it’s like to be president nor the ethics involved. I wouldn’t care if he was also in a wheelchair. He’s adhering to the Rule of Law and his Oath of Office, unlike the previous president.
