Elon Musk: “Moving on…”

Elon Musk has been endlessly fascinating the past few days and weeks.

I mean, he always is but he’s taken it to another level.

If you’ve been following the story, you know he launched a bid to take over Twitter, which the Board rejected.

Then he revealed he had funded secured to issue a private bid directly to the shareholders.

Early this morning, he posted an update that had everyone (yours truly included) concerned he might be giving up.

He posted the cryptic:  "Moving on..."

Speculation ran wild that he was pulling out of his bid for Twitter.

I was legitimately disappointed.

But then?

In classic Elon fashion, he followed that up about 3 hours later with this:

Crisis averted!

He's still in the game and must be feeling pretty good about his chances to be joking around like this.

And if you want to know what he's talking about with Bill Gates, well, just read this:
