Twitter Stock Takes A Large Hit
David Jones, Chief Market Strategist, Capital.com said:
“Not surprisingly, the stock price of Twitter has taken a large hit at the start of US trading, with the price down almost 8% from Friday's close. Elon Musk's decision to walk away - citing a lack of information on just how many spam and bot accounts use the social media platform - sets up an interesting week for the stock. On the one hand there is speculation that the Twitter board will take legal action to try and force Musk to go through with the deal - not a particularly attractive option for him given that he agreed to pay $54.20, about 60% higher than where the stock is currently trading. This is something that could help support the stock price after the initial fall.
But Twitter without a bid could not be that interesting to investors—pre-bid, the stock had traded as low as $30.50 this February and if Musk is not going to be their fairy godmother, investors may decide to dump the stocks. At the moment our clients remain bullish overall with 85% of those who have a position on Twitter currently long - looking to profit from an upwards price movement.”
