Unfolding of the saga: A story told in Twitter’s share value

- In the six months of a dramatic back-and-forth since Musk announced his bid, Twitter’s share has see-sawed, touching a low of $32.65 and a high of $53.91 in Thursday’s extended trading, slightly below Musk's offer price.

Representa­tives of both Twitter and Musk released no comments concerning the takeover; however, Musk changed his Twitter profile to refer to himself as “CHIEF TWIT” and his location to Twitter's San Francisco headquarte­rs

If the two sides don’t meet the deadline, the next step could be a trial that is likely to take place in November.

The Friday deadline was ordered by a court in early October. It is the latest step in an epic battle during which Musk signed a deal to acquire Twitter, then tried to back out of it, leading Twitter to sue the Tesla CEO to force him to conclude the deal.
