#22What kind of board allows an announcement like this to happen in such an uncontrolled way? I feel like this is just more evidence that Twitter's board is weak.

#23Earlier quoted context omitted.
…Twitter’s a public company. [edit: well this was a silly comment :/ please ignore ]
That doesn't have to get in the way of an acquisition. Public companies are routinely acquired in a variety of ways.
Yep. Completely right. I’m a idiot/very tired :)

Twitter has always been a mess. Anyone sensible who wasn’t speculating had dismissed Twitter as a platform for serious usage about 5 minutes after it launched.

#25Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is expected to step down from his executive role, sources tell CNBC’s David Faber. Twitter stock jumped more than 11% on the news. This is breaking news. Please check back for updates. ---- This whole thing is so bizarre
> Twitter stock jumped more than 11% on the news.
Right. It better close up more than 11% today.

#26Inevitable after that Space.
Re: I resigned from Twitter
#27The stock popped 10%. Is this a vote of confidence against him or for whoever has been waiting in the wings? There has been enough agitation against him by the activists that this can’t be a surprise.
I think people are excited for _any_ change at Twitter right now.
They've been making progress in the last year or two but I suspect most people think they could be doing more...

#28> you're not going to be able to give the focus a solo CEO is
How the fuck does Elon do it then? The mf has like four concurrent organizations under his helm.
> I think the bigger issue is who gets to replace him: will it be someone with smart ideas or someone to serve as a puppet of activist investors?
The rising stock price implies yes. Elliot MG has been desperate to make twitter the next mega app. Expect payment options, return of VIne as a tiktok clone, etc
Engagement is key, afterall. Good bye to text, I guess.

"This whole thing is so bizarre" Why? He's been a part-time CEO whose focus has clearly been on Square. Having a full-time CEO focused on a company with as high a profile as Twitter makes a lot of sense.
the method of announcement not the actual contents. There was an investor group keep on kicking Dorsey out so that's not strange. But to have it announced like this on a random Monday morning before start of markets, and not even a proper presser from the board("Twitter did not respond to a request for comment."), but a "leak" by a reporter...
TF is going on?
