The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission asked Tesla CEO Elon Musk for more details related to his Twitter deal, regarding the $44 billion purchase that he recently attempted to pull out of, according to a new regulatory filing issued Thursday.
On May 13, Musk wrote that the Twitter deal was “temporarily on hold” after the billionaire said he requested information on how Twitter determines the number of automated or spam accounts are on its platform. Days later, he wrote that the deal “cannot move forward” unless that information is provided to him.
