Tesla’s Corporate Shift: Elon Musk Considers Move to Texas Amid Compensation Challenges
Musk, known for his unconventional decision-making, posted a poll asking whether Tesla should change its state of incorporation to Texas, where the company’s physical headquarters is located. The move comes after Musk expressed dissatisfaction with the recent ruling in the US state of Delaware, where a judge sided with a shareholder who argued that Musk was overpaid.
“Should Tesla change its state of incorporation to Texas, home of its physical headquarters?” Musk asked in the poll. Surprisingly, within seven hours, 88% of the 656,805 respondents voted in favor of the move.
The social media post garnered various reactions, with users expressing support for the decision. “Yes. Good choice,” commented one user, while another added, “Yes, and we will protect the border while we are there!”
The Delaware judge’s ruling not only jeopardizes Musk’s position as the world’s wealthiest person but also poses challenges to his control over Tesla. The decision stated that the 2018 pay package failed to clearly outline the requirements for Musk to earn the money, raising concerns about conflicts of interest within the board.
The timing is crucial, considering Musk’s recent announcement about his intention to expand his stake in Tesla. This move is aimed at preventing any potential ousting, allowing him to maintain control over the company and pursue further advancements in artificial intelligence.
As the discussion unfolds on the possibility of Tesla’s relocation to Texas, the business world eagerly awaits Musk’s next move and the potential implications for the electric car industry.
