@ftkurt Regarding your question, there is a chance that it'll be overruled. So I'd say it's priced in pretty accurate, but that's in your hands to change it ;)
@Lion I was actually curious if that ruling is reflected on forbes link. But i already did some digging, it seems the link is showing wealth with Elon owning 55b stocks in question.
@ftkurt Yeah, until there is a final decision, I don't think so. In my understanding the judge just ruled, it was too much, and not that he'll have to return all shares. (There might be an new deal or whatever) Therfore Forbes can't really price it in and he hasn't returned them yet, he still holds them. I don't believe we'll get a final decision in 2024.
@Lion He won't have to return shares in any case, because the deal was about additional shares, not the shares Elon currently has.
@Berg According to CNBC he has received shares of this package.
"Chancery Court Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick told the parties in the lawsuit to confer on what would be a final order directing Musk to return the compensation he has received under the plan."
I'm confused. Forbes is showing the Arnault family as #1 with $184 billion, and Elon as #2 with $204 billion:

@TimothyJohnson5c16 It looks like this in my browser, but given the current high volatility in Tesla stock, there could be some shenanigans going on.
