Musk Hijacks Tesla Earnings Call to Vouch for $1 Trillion Pay Plan

Elon Musk spent the end of Tesla Inc.'s earnings call pleading with investors to approve his $1 trillion pay package and blasting shareholder advisory firms. “There needs to be enough voting control to give a strong influence, but not so much that I can’t be fired if I go insane,” Musk said, interrupting what was otherwise a call largely devoted to Tesla’s artificial intelligence, humanoid robot and self-driving initiatives. Shareholders will vote on the pay package at Tesla’s Nov. 6 annual meeting in Austin. Bloomberg's Max Chafkin joined Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on 'Bloomberg Businessweek Daily' to break down Musk's comments. (Source: Bloomberg)
