They also put in $400 million into magic leap, ar large bet on Uber and about $50 Billion into the Softbank vision fund that is throwing money around.
I think this puts them about the 8th largest shareholder of Tesla.
As an aside, with Musk's recent tweet I think he's going to get a pretty stern talking to by the SEC about discomfiture and Reg FD.
Even if its true,
1) You've now used that bullet in your gun against the short sellers
2) Did it in a very dubious way, via twitter rather than RegFD disclosure.
3) will now have to answer questions about this "private takeover", ie where is the money coming from? how long is it committed for?
For what? An SEC headache a momentary pop that was immediately erased?
The tweet caused a momentary pop in the stock price which was erased about 2 minutes after it popped. The market can be exceedingly good and correcting itself.
Elon seems to be doubling down
