Twitter’s value down two-thirds since Musk takeover, says investor

Asset manager Fidelity reports that stake worth $20m in October 2022 is now worth just under $6.6m

Twitter's value has plummeted by almost two-thirds since Elon Musk acquired the company in October 2022, one of the social media company's only remaining external investors has admitted.

Fidelity, an asset manager that held a stake in Twitter worth about $20m after Musk acquired the business for $44bn, said in a corporate filing that its stake was now worth just under $6.6m. That would value the overall company, now officially called X Holdings Corp after Musk's early venture X.com, at just $14.75bn.
