Tesla’s Chief Monetary Officer, Taneja Vaibhav, and the top of Tesla’s board of administrators, Robyn Denholm, have simply offered tens of tens of millions of {dollars} price of Tesla (TSLA) inventory.
Elon Musk’s brother can also be promoting.
Public corporations should report insider inventory buying and selling by important executives and board members to the SEC.
For Tesla, it’s a really restricted group for a corporation of that dimension:

And they aren’t shopping for the inventory. Actually, they’re virtually solely promoting.
Immediately, Tesla reported two new units of transactions in SEC filings.
Chief Monetary Officer Taneja Vaibhav confirmed that he offered 7,000 shares for $2,681,770.

He was in a position to purchase these 7,000 Tesla shares at $18.22 as a part of his inventory possibility plan. He offered at a mean of $383, and the inventory closed at $374 immediately.
Robyn Denholm, Tesla’s chairwoman, offered 112,390 shares at a mean worth of $384.04, for a complete worth of $43,162,255.60.

She additionally received the shares as a part of a inventory possibility plan. Denholm needed to return tens of tens of millions of {dollars} price of Tesla shares to the corporate after settling a lawsuit over extreme compensation introduced by shareholders.
Tesla’s total board settled for almost $1 billion:
Tesla wrote within the filings that each Vaibhav and Denholm offered as a part of inventory possibility liquidation plans adopted final 12 months.
Immediately, Tesla launched one other SEC submitting to reveal that Kimbal Musk, Elon Musk’s brother and Tesla board member who additionally was a part of the extreme compensation settlement, is promoting 75,000 Tesla shares by way of Morgan Stanley for $27.5 million.
In his case, it doesn’t look like linked to a liquidation plan.
Electrek’s Take
Kimbal is understood to have nice “timing” along with his Tesla inventory gross sales. It is going to be attention-grabbing to see.
It’s wild to see these board members getting absurdly wealthy whereas the corporate has erased its development and is heading into considered one of its worst quarters in years.
All whereas they sit on their arms and do nothing whereas they’re the one ones who may do one thing in regards to the CEO, who seemingly engages in fireable offenses every single day.
Tesla has one of many worst company governance of any main corporations I’ve ever witnessed.
