Elon Musk seeks to resolve the dispute over the delayed disclosure of his Twitter investment.

Elon Musk requested that a U.S. judge dismiss a case, claiming that his delayed disclosure of a sizable position in Twitter Inc. misled shareholders who, as a result of being kept in the dark, sold Twitter stock at artificially low prices.
Investors accused Musk of delaying disclosing his purchase of 5% of Twitter’s stock by 11 days past a March deadline in the federal court case in Manhattan. Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion in October.
The shareholders claimed Musk saved more than $200 million by increasing his holdings before finally disclosing a 9.2% stake, defrauding stock sellers and options traders of the “true value” of their securities. This was done while secretly meeting with Twitter executives about his plans for the social media company.
