Nope, the original email implied that there was a mutual agreement to join up
with Saudi's, which is patently false and has no proofThe stock price surged
that day due to the Saudi's and was an unwelcome addition to the failed taking
privatebut absolutely, categorically it is completely false to even imply that
Musk and the Saudi's were joining forces in any way except as antagonistsPlease
refrain from implying anything other than that,ok.If falsehoods get spread they
get pounced upon without mercy, especially on an EV list, where folks are
supposed to be both informed and have lots of knowledge.

The Saudi wealth fund bought Tesla stock. Now it's investing in Lucid, a
Tesla competitor
Sep 18, 2018
"Earlier this year, the Saudi fund bought Tesla shares on the open market
totaling between 3% and 5% of the company, the Financial Times has reported.
In August, when Elon Musk flirted briefly with the idea of taking Tesla
private, he identified the Saudi fund, along with Volkswagen, as funding
sources."
