Today we are going to discuss the high-trending event: Elon Musk's Twitter purchase. Musk offered to purchase Twitter back in April 2022 and waived due diligence. Then in July, he attempted to back out of the deal due to a spam bots claim, and Twitter sued. The acquisition was closed on October 2022. Nathaniel spoke of Musk's Twitter debt and cash flow (spoil alert: virtually nonexistent), and why he thinks that Musk may have overpaid for the deal. Now that Twitter is a private company without needing to report everything to the public, where is Musk taking the company? He promised a "platform of freedom", and yet days later assured the ad sponsors "business as usual"; he claimed that he bought Twitter to "help humanity", and yet threatened to fire 75% of employees and believes working-crazy-hours-culture. This is just the beginning. We can't wait to see where the future lands for Twitter.
