Musk faces SEC questions over X takeover - but will he show up?

Published On Oct 3, 2024, 4:50 AM

Elon Musk is under scrutiny for his acquisition of Twitter (now X) due to delays in disclosing his stake before the acquisition. A federal court has ordered him to answer further questions, following his absence in a previous SEC meeting. The SEC alleges he may have violated securities laws and is pushing for penalties if he fails to appear. Musk's legal team counters that they have cooperated fully with the investigation, but SEC lawyers accuse him of using delay tactics.

The ongoing legal issues and scrutiny from the SEC may negatively impact Musk's reputation and his companies, particularly Tesla, given its ties to Musk's personal brand.
