But how do you get, let’s say, 25 percent of a company’s stock?

Is it through just buying and buying and buying during trading? Is that legal?

Or is it through some kind of deal outside of market hours?

Thanks.

I should have known you would know :)

You probably made a killing playing this drop last week :)

He is an activist investor. Think Carl Icahn

He owns a huge stake in Softbank and At&t

I don’t know how much he owns but he will seek to join forces with others to force change.

Sometimes it works
Sometimes it doesn’t.
Since Twitter has equal voting rights and Dorsey only owns 2% he may very well succeed

oh and to answer your other question about the drop in the market..before this huge drop I missed out on $250k on TSLA because I hesitated to buy puts when I knew I should buy based on option activity. If I had had another day I probably would have bought them..but timing is everything.

I am not over it yet. And thus, haven’t capitalized on the drop like I should. I have to shake it off. I can barely even type about it I am still so hacked off.

So yes I made money..but not killing it. Have to get my head back in the game
