Musk Asks Twitter Followers if He Should Sell Stock, Shares Slump

Tesla CEO Elon Musk posed a question to his Twitter followers over the weekend: 'Should I sell 10% of my Tesla shares in order to pay off a looming $15 billion tax bill?' Shares plummeted after he posed the question, and just over half of 3.5 million Twitter voters said Musk should sell a fraction of his shares. Dan Ives, Managing Director of Equity Research at Wedbush Securities, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell to discuss whether or not Musk's Twitter poll was significant amid his looming tax bill, and how investors are feeling after yet another controversial tweet from the Tesla chief.
