  • The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is suing Elon Musk for allegedly failing to disclose his ownership of over 5%.
  • The SEC claims Musk crossed the 5% mark on March 14, 2022.
  • Musk’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, countered that the tech billionaire had “done nothing wrong”

According to the SEC, Musk began buying up Twitter shares in early 2022 and crossed the 5% mark on March 14, 2022. However, he didn’t disclose this fact publicly until April 4, 2022, 11 days after the required deadline.

The SEC claims that this late disclosure allowed Musk to “underpay by at least $150 million for his purchases of Twitter common stock” during that period.

The outcome of the lawsuit is uncertain, given Musk’s close relationship with incoming U.S. President Donald Trump, who will be sworn in on January 20.
