I too believe that he'd be crazy not to renegotiate.

As far as I recall, they agreed on a break fee of ~$1bn if Musk walks away. But if he can lower the price to $40 a share (which is still far higher than market would probably be, at least in this market), he gets Twitter at $31bn instead of $42bn.



Painful break fee - worth it in current market conditions though his equity hes putting up will have been reevaluated downwards too.
