NEW YORK : Elon Musk wants to dismiss a lawsuit by former Twitter shareholders who said he waited too long in early 2022 to reveal his large ownership stake in the social media company, saying "all indications" show his delay was a mistake.

The investors said this let Musk buy more shares at cheap prices, saving more than $200 million. Twitter, now known as X, rose 27 per cent on April 4, 2022 after Musk revealed his 9.2 per cent stake. "This is not a scheme to defraud," Musk said."All indications-including those in the pleadings-point to mistake."

Musk eventually bought San Francisco-based Twitter for $44 billion in October 2022. The SEC has also probed his Twitter stock purchases.
