Aaron Cole, managing editor at Motor Authority, discusses Tesla's announcement that Elon Musk's performance-based pay plan as CEO will not allow him to receive a paycheck until he delivers on company growth goals.
The ambitious company targets will try to have Tesla nearly double in size over the next 12 years. If Musk delivers on all goals, his stock options alone will rise to $184 million dollars.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
