US judge rejects Elon Musk bid to set aside Twitter fraud verdict

A federal judge rejected Elon Musk’s motion to dismiss a jury verdict that found he defrauded Twitter investors, though the court ruled he is not liable for one challenged tweet. While the dismissal attempt failed, the decision keeps legal and potential liability overhang on Musk/Twitter-related investor claims. Net impact is likely limited to litigation-sensitive sentiment rather than immediate company fundamentals.
