Why has US sued Elon Musk?
US Securities and Exchange Commission sued Elon Musk for failing to disclose within the required 10-day period that he acquired over 5% of Twitter's stock in March 2022. This allowed Musk to keep buying shares at "artificially low prices" and "underpay by at least $150 million". When Musk informed regulators on April 4, 2022, Twitter's stock price was up 27%.
