Twitter shares dropped 4.4% to $50.17 Friday as the market rose generally, threatening to close below $50 for the first time since October 7.
Citing anonymous sources, Bloomberg រាយការណ៍ late Thursday the Biden Administration is mulling placing Musk’s business dealings under a national security review due to Musk apparently cozying up to the Kremlin and securing financing for the Twitter deal from Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
លោក Dan Ives អ្នកវិភាគ Wedbush បានហៅ the report a “major wild card” for Wall Street’s interpretation of the likelihood Musk’s Twitter acquisition going through as expected.
Other Thursday night news also weighed down Twitter stock: The Washington Post reported on internal documents of Musk’s plans to fire ប្រហែល 75% of Twitter’s employees, which Ives called “way too aggressive” in a Friday note to clients, and a brutal Thursday earnings report from fellow social media giant Snap, Snapchat’s parent company.

Musk disclosed a 9% stake in Twitter in April and the company accepted his unsolicited takeover bid later that month, but the partnership quickly soured, with Musk officially filing to back away from the deal in July. Twitter sued Musk to force through the deal, but Musk told the company October 3 he’d move ahead with the original terms, two weeks before the trial between Musk and Twitter was slated to begin.
