Yesterday, Elon Musk denied his intention to buy Manchester United after a previous tweet on Twitter that he would do so, and said that it was just an internal joke that was intended indirectly by Twitter.
According to Arab Net, Musk is famous for his tweets about his intention to buy companies such as the purchase of Coca-Cola in April.
And before that, the buyback and privatization of Tesla shares, a joke that cost him his position at Tesla as chairman of the board and a $20 million fine for a settlement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
When the world's richest man makes such statements, especially after he made an offer to buy Twitter, it must have a significant impact on the attitudes of investors and the stock market.
It is worth noting that Manchester United has more than 32 million followers on his Twitter account, and Musk's tweet about buying the club got about 400,000 likes within four hours.
