Tesla’s $29 Billion Pay Package for Musk Approved
Tesla has filed paperwork revealing a potential $29 billion stock option package for CEO Elon Musk. This “interim award” aims to secure Musk’s leadership as Tesla shifts towards autonomous vehicles and robotics. The move follows a Delaware court’s rescission of Musk’s 2018 compensation plan, now under appeal. The new grant, structured to avoid double compensation, would increase Musk’s stake in Tesla if the Delaware ruling stands and he remains an executive for two years. Analysts view it as a signal of confidence in Musk’s ability to guide Tesla’s strategic evolution.
