SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Notifies Investors of Class Action Against Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) and Lead Plaintiff Deadline: October 9, 2018

NEW YORK, Aug. 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Tesla, Inc. (“Tesla” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: TSLA) and its CEO, Elon Musk (“Musk”), on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired Tesla securities between August 7, 2018 and August 10, 2018, (the “Class Period”).  Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm’s site: www.bgandg.com/tsla.

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The complaint states that on August 7, 2018, Musk stated on Twitter: (1) “Am considering taking Tesla private at $420”; (2) “Funding secured”; (3) “Shareholders could either to sell at 420 or hold shares & go private”; and (4) “Investor support is confirmed.”  Following these tweets, Tesla shares went up as much as $45.47 per share, or 13%, during intraday trading before closing at $379.57 on August 7, 2018.

Since then, both the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Tesla’s board of directors are reportedly investigating the truth of Musk’s tweets, and whether in fact funding had been secured.  Several large investors and banks have said that they are unaware of any funding. Following the news of these investigations Tesla stock has dropped to close at $355.49 per share on August 10, 2018.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) contrary to Musk’s statements that funding had been “secured” to take Tesla private at $420 per share, no such funding had been secured; and (2) contrary to Musk’s statement that investor support to take Tesla private “is confirmed,” there was no such confirmation.
