‘Tesla stock price is too high’: Elon Musk sends shares into freefall with deluge of tweets Elon Musk has stirred up a new Twitter controversy by claiming that the shares of his electric car company were priced “too high.” The remark sent Tesla stock downhill and summoned a horde of angry shareholders into Musk’s feed.
