    It’s all the same thing. He “offered” to buy Twitter and then tried to back out. Market manipulation.

    The board of Twitter forced the sale, because they had every right and responsibility to their shareholders to do so.

    Now he’s wrecking the company seemingly on purpose. Market manipulation.

      Seeing as how the company is now private, how is him wrecking the company “market manipulation”? Twitter isn’t on the market anymore.

        I believe they are referring to him buying a significant amount of stock and failing to disclose it, which is illegal. Then talking about buying it for a high price, then trying to get out of buying it after signing the deal. There were lots of shenanigans going on before the final purchase. That’s what this is all about.
