Elon Musk’s move to close Twitter deal leaves Tesla investors worried

Elon Musk’s change of heart over his buyout deal for Twitter Inc was greeted with a wave of price target boosts on the social media company’s stock, although Tesla investors feared that the billionaire was spreading himself too thin.

Musk, who sold over $15 billion worth of Tesla Inc shares earlier in the year to fund the deal, had threatened to abandon the takeover, citing a large number of fake accounts and inviting a lawsuit from Twitter to close the deal at the original offer price of $44 billion.
