Elon Musk has announced his planned acquisition Twitter was “temporarily suspended” due to concerns about fake accounts, an unexpected turnaround that shocked investors and raised questions about its readiness to complete the $ 44 billion deal.
Mr. Mask’s grenade appeared on Twitter, posted at 5:44 a.m. Eastern Time, followed just over two hours later by another who said he was “still looking to buy.” The announcement was extraordinary not only in time and format, but also because Mr Musk referred to a recent revelation on Twitter about fake and spam accounts he had consistently made over the years, and because Mr Musk has already signed a purchase agreement and refused to have a detailed inspection of the deal.
