TSLA: Tesla Approves $29 Billion For Musk Amid Falling Sales, Legal Chaos
Aug 4 - Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is not shy about betting big on Elon Musk. The company just approved a fresh 96 million-share compensation package for its CEO, worth around $29 billion. It's all about keeping Musk locked in, especially after a Delaware court tossed out his original $50 billion pay deal from 2018, calling it unfair to shareholders. Now, Musk is fighting that ruling in court. But in the meantime, Tesla's board put together a new plan. The shares won't vest unless Musk stays in a top executive role through 2027, and even then, they come with a five-year holding period. Tesla also says there won't be any double-dipping if his old package gets reinstated. All this is happening while Tesla faces real challenges. Sales are down, the Cybertruck hasn't delivered, and competition from legacy automakers like General Motors (NYSE:GM), Hyundai (HYMTF), and BMW (BMWYY) is heating up. On top of that, Musk's political moves haven't helped Tesla's brand loyalty. Still, this new award could help steady the ship, at least if Musk sticks around.

Donald Trump Insulted Taylor Swift While Praising Sydney Sweeney In A New Rant
President Donald Trump is continuing to respond very normally to news that Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican. The actor found herself amid backlash following her "great jeans" American Eagle ad, in which she said, 'Genes are passed down from parent to offspring, often determining traits like eye color, personality, and even hair color. My jeans are blue." Given the political climate, some criticized the ad as a racist "dog whistle." Related: This weekend, BuzzFeed was the first major outlet to confirm that Sydney is registered as a Republican in Florida, according to publicly available voter registration records. When Trump was seemingly told about her registration in an interview this morning, he responded, 'She's a registered Republican? Oh, now I love her ad!' Shortly after the interview, Trump hit Truth Social with another take: "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!" Indeed, Sydney's Ultra Wide-Leg Jean is currently listed as out of stock on American Eagle's website. Interestingly, the success of American Eagle sub-brand Aerie has been attributed to its emphasis on diversity in its branding. Related: Trump compared the ad to car company Jaguar's viral "Copy Nothing" campaign last year, which featured a diverse selection of models and was branded "woke" by the right: "On the other side of the ledger, Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement, THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER! The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad." Related: He further evoked the Bud Light boycotts, which began after transgender TikToker Dylan Mulvaney posted a less-than-a-minute-long video on Instagram promoting the company's giveaway. The President wrote, "Shouldn't they have learned a lesson from Bud Lite, which went Woke and essentially destroyed, in a short campaign, the Company. The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, with BILLIONS OF DOLLARS SO FOOLISHLY LOST." "Or just look at Woke singer Taylor Swift," he continued, taking another shot at the singer. "Ever since I alerted the world as to what she was by saying on TRUTH that I can't stand her (HATE!). She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became, NO LONGER HOT. The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Related: Similarly, Trump posted (unprovoked) back in May, "Has anyone noticed that, since I said 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,' she's no longer 'HOT?'" It's worth noting that Taylor is reportedly enjoying some downtime after her record-breaking Eras tour. Cool! Very normal stuff from the President!

Elon Musk's $29B award may raise board independence concerns
Tesla (TSLA) approved a "good faith" award valued at roughly $29 billion for CEO Elon Musk. Yahoo Finance Senior Transportation Reporter Pras Subramanian discusses the special award and what it means for investors as uncertainty around the CEO's pay package looms. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Catalysts. Tesla's board has approved Elon Musk's massive new $29 billion stock award. Will that be enough to keep the CEO's focus aimed at the EV giant? Joining me now, Yahoo Finance senior Auto's reporter Pras Subramanian. This is less Mhm. than the initial pay package that was approved and then rejected by Delaware court. So what do we know about this one? Sounds like it's going to address some of the issues about his focus and it requires him to be there for a few years and devote a certain amount of time to the business and that's sort of what people like Dan Ives are asking about uh, in terms of what they want from Elon Musk going forward as they the company approaches critical phase with robo taxis and Optimus robots and all sorts of cyber cabs and all these things happening. So, I think it's addressing those those key issues. Still a lot of money. I mean, I don't know any CEO's making that much kind of that much money in the span of three, four, three to five years. But yes, it is significantly less than that original pay package that's still tied up in in the court system still to this day. Um, and they said that they if one of those two gets approved, it wouldn't like be a double dip situation where it would be one of the either. You couldn't get both. So that's going to address that concern, too. So, Okay. What about the sort of ongoing questions about the board independence at Tesla? Those, those haven't really gone away, right? Yeah, I mean the board's confident that almost was going to be okay with this package. Like, well, yeah, he's on the board. He's sort of his friends with everyone there. Uh, Robin Denholm, the chair is something that he someone supposedly hand picked. I mean, so you have to ask that question. Still is it still in play as a whether how independent is this board? There's only one member who's independent. Um, so it's really interesting to me. But Right. And there's also, of course, the cognitive distance between this headline, which, yes, we know was sort of a retroactive pay package and the fact that the stock is down 25% this year. Right. And then the auto the core auto business is, is, is slipping quarter after quarter and there's no indication that's improving. Yes, we have the new Model Y out now, but it was out last quarter and it was still sort of down a bit. So, there needs to be something happening. We're not going to see that cheaper EV not till after the tax credit goes away. So, a lot of question marks here, this is a pretty big pay package, but I guess for some, if you're a Tesla investor, there's kind of some certainty here with what Musk is going to be doing in his, in his time with the company. Right. Yes, to some degree.
