Tesla Shares Print Mild Gains as Elon Musk Is Set to Step Down as Twitter CEO

The biggest beneficiary of the move in the long term would be Tesla shareholders, considering the company is the only publicly listed entity associated with Elon Musk.

Shares of US multinational technology company Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) are seeing an impressive rally as investors seem happy that the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, is getting his priorities right. As reported earlier by Coinspeaker, the popular entrepreneur and founder said he is stepping down from his role as CEO of Twitter, the micro-messaging platform he acquired over a year ago.

Musk’s announcement made it clear that the new CEO is set to resume his position in about 6 weeks while his role will be transitioned to CEO and CTO. As an engineer, Musk said he will now oversee the company’s product, software, and operating system.

While there are different reactions to what was revealed by the CEO of Twitter, as many praised the move. However, concerns about what the company’s future will look like under the new CEO remain a major source of speculation, however, for Tesla investors and shareholders, this is a welcome development.

Tesla stakeholders were worried there was too much of a distraction from Musk managing affairs between Tesla, SpaceX and Twitter. While those companies are at the forefront of his agenda, he also oversees The Boring Company and Neuralink, a move Tesla shareholders believe keeps him from focusing on the electric car company’s immediate challenges.

Corporate boards can and should step in if the CEO appears distracted or overly focused on other projects. However, the board has allowed Elon Musk to run so many companies, resulting in an inability to address the multiple strategic and competitive issues facing Tesla. A group of Tesla shareholders have expressed concerns about Musk’s divided interest in the company letter.

Tesla stock and the new growth trajectory

At the time of writing, Tesla shares were up 0.96% in the pre-market period, an increase that complements the more than 2% increase from Thursday’s trading session.

This growth in Tesla shares may signal a new dawn for the stock, which has been heavily devalued over the past year.

Musk wants to hand over the reins to an entirely new character Tends That being Linda Iaccarino, President of Global Advertising and Partnerships at NBCUniversal. By speculation, Linda’s role is expected to replace Musk in the day-to-day management of the company, giving the president more time for his other projects.

The biggest beneficiary of the move in the long term will be Tesla shareholders, given that the company is the only publicly listed entity associated with Elon Musk. With the projections, Tesla will seek to gradually begin to recoup the more than $600 billion it lost in market capitalization since completing Musk’s acquisition of the social media company.
