Together, John, Michael and Ellyde discuss the recent class action securities suit against Elon Musk, based on his August 7th, 2018 tweet about taking Tesla private. 

They discuss how Michael and Ellyde’s team obtained a complete jury verdict in Mr. Musk’s favor that denied the plaintiffs any recovery for their $12 billion in alleged market losses.
