The interesting tidbit, from the article (emphasis mine):
“Last week, Elon opened a discussion with the board about taking the company private,” according to a statement from several board members. The talks included how being a private company could “better serve Tesla’s long-term interests, and also addressed the funding for this to occur,” said the statement from independent directors Brad Buss, Robyn Denholm, Ira Ehrenpreis, Antonio Gracias, Linda Johnson Rice, and James Murdoch.
I think this helps provide more evidence that the funding may indeed be in place for this deal, and this is not (as some have asserted) merely a bluff or an off-the-cuff remark.
