Twitter takeover: Banks transact $13 billion in cash for the deal

Banks that committed to support Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter are reportedly starting to pay up a total of $13 billion to complete the transaction. The transfers were first reported a few hours after Musk visited Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco, California.

The CEO of Tesla has formally started the $44 billion buyout of Twitter

According to a story published on Wednesday by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), the CEO of Tesla officially began the $44 billion acquisition of Twitter by sending borrowing notices to banks. Funding letters are routinely provided three to five days prior to the requirement for the payments, just like the one Musk sent to the banks.

According to persons with knowledge of the issue who talked to WSJ, banks have reportedly started sending funds for the acquisition, fueling rumors that the sale is set to close. According to these sources, Musk will have access to the funds after the final loan contract closing conditions are met, enabling him to buy Twitter by the end of the week. According to an internal communication seen by WSJ, Twitter informed its staff that they will hear directly from Musk regarding the acquisition on Friday.

Musk also changed his bio to read “Chief Twit”

A video of Musk’s visit to Twitter’s corporate offices was previously released by him. The SpaceX founder is seen beaming as he enters the building while carrying a bathroom sink. As he walked into Twitter HQ, he added the phrase “Let it sink in” to the post’s description.

Musk also changed his bio to read “Chief Twit” and listed “Twitter HQ” as his place of residence. On Wednesday, he claimed, he would be meeting “a lot of cool folks” at the corporate office. Judge Kathaleen McCormick of Delaware is presiding over a lawsuit that the company has brought against Musk. She consented to a Friday trial postponement. If Musk doesn’t complete his acquisition before then, the trial will start.

A recent data analysis showed that hundreds of employees had left the company

It’s unclear how venture capital firms that agreed to contribute money to Musk’s purchase of Twitter will respond to recent developments regarding the transaction’s bank rollover.

A recent data analysis showed that hundreds of employees had left Twitter to work for other online behemoths as a result of claims that Musk intends to fire 75% of the company’s staff after he completes the purchase.
