After starting in 2006, the micro-blogging website went public in 2013. Its Initial Public Offering (IPO) of $45.10 helped the company raise $1.8 billion. Elon Musk, an ardent admirer and user of the platform, expressed his interest in buying the social media network. The $44 billion deal went through on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Acquisition_of_Twitter_by_Elon_Musk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">October 27, 2022<\/a>.

From the Stock Market?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing Elon Musk did after taking over Twitter was make it a private company. As highlighted earlier, the stocks for the micro-blogging website were available to the public. What does this mean? To be a shareholder, you can purchase Twitter stocks. They were available on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). As the company is now private, it brings you to the question, \u201cIs Twitter delisted from the stock market?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer is no\u2014you can no longer buy Twitter stocks from any stock exchange. A few hours after the buyout, NYSE stopped trading Twitter stocks. This happened before the market opened the next day, i.e., October 28, 2022.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you could still see Twitter stocks on NYSE, just that you couldn\u2019t buy them. This brings you to the next question \u201cIs Twitter on the stock market?\u201d On November 8, 2022, NYSE removed the social media network from its listing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Twitter_Stock_Market_What_Happens_After_the_Delisting\"><\/span><strong>Twitter Stock Market: What Happens After the Delisting?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"blog-side\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"blog-side-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"blog-side-box-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bulk-delete-head\">Bulk delete past tweets with one click<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"subscribe-to-unlock\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/login\/\">\n\t                 Sign in with Twitter <svg width=\"10\" height=\"10\" viewBox=\"0 0 10 10\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<path d=\"M9.1605 0H0.849401C0.626751 0 0.413219 0.0884475 0.255781 0.245885C0.0983438 0.403323 0.00989626 0.616854 0.00989626 0.839505C0.00989626 1.06216 0.0983438 1.27569 0.255781 1.43312C0.413219 1.59056 0.626751 1.67901 0.849401 1.67901H7.13309L0.256291 8.55665C0.17611 8.63409 0.112154 8.72673 0.0681567 8.82915C0.0241591 8.93157 0.00100033 9.04173 3.16969e-05 9.1532C-0.000936937 9.26467 0.020304 9.37522 0.062515 9.47839C0.104726 9.58156 0.167062 9.67529 0.245885 9.75412C0.324709 9.83294 0.418441 9.89527 0.521613 9.93748C0.624785 9.9797 0.735331 10.0009 0.846799 9.99997C0.958268 9.999 1.06843 9.97584 1.17085 9.93184C1.27327 9.88785 1.36591 9.82389 1.44335 9.74371L8.32099 2.86649V9.1506C8.32099 9.37325 8.40944 9.58678 8.56688 9.74422C8.72431 9.90166 8.93785 9.9901 9.1605 9.9901C9.38315 9.9901 9.59668 9.90166 9.75412 9.74422C9.91155 9.58678 10 9.37325 10 9.1506V0.839505C10 0.616854 9.91155 0.403323 9.75412 0.245885C9.59668 0.0884475 9.38315 0 9.1605 0Z\" fill=\"white\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t                <\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/themes\/generatepress_child\/assets\/images\/single-post-img.svg\" alt=\"img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t   <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You want to know what\u2019s in store for the shareholders after learning more about \u201cIs Twitter on the stock market?\u201d After all, the social media giant was a public company before the deal. Usually, when stock delisting takes place, you can\u2019t purchase or sell the shares on the platform. In this instance, you won\u2019t see Twitter stocks on NYSE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what can the shareholders do after the delisting? Generally, delisted stocks come under over-the-counter (OTC) stocks. In other words, no stock exchange recognizes these shares. Shareholders can trade these stocks even though it\u2019s not available on any stock exchange. But the downside is that they may not get a fair value for their shares. Also, due to lower levels of regulation in OTC stocks, the trades are vulnerable to scams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, Twitter\u2019s stockholders won\u2019t face this issue because the delisting was due to a takeover. First of all, 98% of Twitter\u2019s shareholders favored the buyout. After the successful deal, they\u2019ll get $54.20 per share, despite the market closing it at $53.70.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As most shareholders use brokerage agents, they will handle everything for their clients. All the shareholders have to do is wait to receive the money from the deal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pexels-pixabay-210607.jpg\" alt=\"A close-up of a stock exchange market. \" class=\"wp-image-976\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Twitters_Market_Cap\"><\/span><strong>What Is Twitter\u2019s Market Cap?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You know the answer to \u201cIs Twitter on the stock market?\u201d The next natural question is what is Twitter\u2019s market cap during the takeover. Before the buyout by the billionaire investor, the social media network\u2019s market cap was $41.094 billion. The stock price was $53.70 per share, lower than what Elon Musk promised to pay Twitter\u2019s shareholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The billionaire investor\u2019s initial offer of $44 billion worked out to $54.20 per share. Although fluctuations are standard in the market, there were drastic swings during the Twitter takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why did this happen? To understand this, you must go back to when Elon Musk became Twitter\u2019s biggest shareholder on April 4, 2022. When news broke out, there was a significant bump in the social media network\u2019s share price. He bought a 9.2% stake in the company for $2.9 billion. But, due to the increase in share price, it was worth over $3.5 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of joining Twitter\u2019s board of directors, he offered $44 billion to buy the company. The social media network was on-board with the deal. As a result, the stock price jumped from $43 to $52. However, the billionaire investor didn\u2019t do his due diligence, i.e., investigate the company to ensure everything was in order. Generally, investors perform this process to ensure they don\u2019t get the raw end of the deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only after his due diligence did Elon Musk realize he didn\u2019t want to proceed with the buyout. However, Twitter went the legal route to ensure the deal went through. Due to the back and forth between Elon Musk and Twitter, Twitter\u2019s share price fluctuated significantly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Twitter_on_the_Stock_Market_Who_Owns_Twitter_Now\"><\/span><strong>Is Twitter on the Stock Market: Who Owns Twitter Now?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The next part of the \u201cIs Twitter on the stock market\u201d series is understanding who owns the social media platform. Yes, Elon Musk is the sole owner of the micro-blogging website. However, all the money from the deal didn\u2019t come from the billionaire investor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s remarkable to note that Elon Musk was able to raise billions of dollars for the Twitter takeover. Despite being the wealthiest man in the world, he needed financial assistance from third parties.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, BNP Paribas, Mizuho Bank, MUFG, Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 G\u00e9n\u00e9rale and Barclays provided a portion of the funds. He committed to selling his Tesla stock and approached 19 independent investors. He raised $44 billion for the Twitter takeover by involving several investors and financial institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qatar Holding, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Al Waleed bin Talal Al Saud, and Larry Ellison were among the independent investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, Twitter, Inc. no longer exists after the deal. Instead, it goes by X Corp. Why? Elon Musk registered X Holdings in Delaware to handle the takeover. He also controls X Holdings, which allows him to manage the social media platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Twitter_Stock_Market_Why_Is_It_a_Private_Company\"><\/span><strong>Twitter Stock Market: Why Is It a Private Company?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Why did Elon Musk decide to make Twitter a private company? Although there are advantages to remaining a publicly traded company, the billionaire investor had other ideas. He wanted to bring about significant changes throughout the company. It can be tricky dealing with public shareholders, especially when everyone is not on board. As multiple stakeholders can influence decisions, introducing changes can be challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the size of Twitter\u2019s acquisition cost, Elon Musk has to pay around a billion dollars in interest. This means he needs to turn things around quickly and make the social media network profitable. He has complete control over the platform by making Twitter a private company. He can shape it to his will and ensure it aligns with his vision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although free from public pressure, it doesn\u2019t mean he\u2019s in the clear for a while. All the private investors will be looking to profit from their investments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elon\u2019s move is similar to what happened with Dell in 2013. Michael Dell also went the private company route to bring about significant changes. He could rebalance the business and take it in the right direction thanks to his quick action.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elon Musk is also in the same boat and can change the social media platform\u2019s direction. But where does he want it to go? First, he wants the company to break even, which will be an incredible feat if he pulls it off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, he wants to transform Twitter into an all-in-one app called \u2018X.\u2019 He takes inspiration from WeChat, an app that provides its users with services like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Food delivery<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobile payments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ridesharing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social media<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While seeing Elon Musk\u2019s ambitious goals is incredible, you should remember that he doesn\u2019t always stick with his plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tim-mossholder-0zRt0bQysMw-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\" A sign with the word \u201cprivate\u201d in white font on a black background in front of a gray wall. \" class=\"wp-image-977\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Happening_to_Twitter\"><\/span><strong>]What Is Happening to Twitter?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You wonder <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/whats-happening-to-twitter-new-frontiers-with-elon-musk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">what is happening to Twitter<\/a> after the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Acquisition_of_Twitter_by_Elon_Musk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acquisition<\/a>. As promised, Elon Musk did introduce sweeping changes to the social media platform. Given below is an account of the billionaire investor\u2019s actions as CEO after the Twitter stock market takeover.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Twitter_Stock_Market_Decrease_the_Number_of_Employees\"><\/span><strong>Twitter Stock Market: Decrease the Number of Employees<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of his first moves was to remove the micro-blogging website\u2019s top executives from the company. He let go of Parag Agarwal, Vijaya Gadde, Sean Edgett, and Ned Segal. He became the CEO of the company and the only member of the company\u2019s board of directors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His next move was to trim the hedges, which in this instance was to reduce the size of the workforce. Almost 75% of the employees were no longer a part of the company. This was a combination of firing the workforce and some staff resigning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As several departments no longer had the employees to function, there were concerns among advertisers, especially about content moderation. Abuse and hate speech were rising, so several companies stopped advertising on the platform. Remember, 90% of Twitter\u2019s revenue during the second quarter came from advertisements. Out of Twitter\u2019s top 1000 advertisers, only 43% run ads on the platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these drastic actions, he reduced the company\u2019s costs to $1.5 billion. Before the Twitter stock market takeover, the platform\u2019s expenditure was $4.5 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Overhaul_the_Verification_System\"><\/span><strong>Overhaul the Verification System<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As CEO, he revamped the platform\u2019s verification process for the iconic blue tick. He introduced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-blue-check-the-key-to-boost-your-online-reputation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter Blue<\/a> for $8 a month. It is a paid subscription service that offers exclusive features to Twitter users. He launched the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/1389933\/number-of-twitter-blue-subscribers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">yellow checkmark<\/a> for organizations for $1000 a month. Similarly, he also introduced the gray checkmark. This is for multilateral organizations and government officials. How is this related to the Twitter stock market? Well, one of the reasons for offering subscription services was to increase the platform\u2019s revenue. However, there are only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/1389933\/number-of-twitter-blue-subscribers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">640,000 paying members<\/a>, which is only a small percentage of Twitter\u2019s user base.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ilgmyzin-Jod4QCQ_neg-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"A hand holding several Twitter blue checkmarks on its palm.\" class=\"wp-image-978\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Twitter_Stock_Market_Timeline_Changes\"><\/span><strong>Twitter Stock Market: Timeline Changes<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There were also changes to the social media website\u2019s timelines. Instead of showing posts from accounts and topics users follow, the algorithm decides what they see. As a result, users get tweets from accounts and topics, depending on their activity on the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After delisting the Twitter stock market, all these changes were part of Elon Musk\u2019s goal to make the company profitable.

Should everything go well, there will be a second IPO from the company.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Removing old posts is always better if you want to use your personal Twitter account for your business. Why? For starters, they may be irrelevant to your business. Also, if there are any sensitive media in those tweets, you don\u2019t want your potential customers to see them.&nbsp;<br>While starting a new account makes sense, building a following from scratch can be challenging.
