Musk says he is still committed to being Tesla CEO in 5 years' time
- Elon Musk reaffirmed on April 23, 2025, at Bloomberg's Qatar Economic Forum in Doha that he plans to remain Tesla's CEO for the next five years.
- This statement followed reports by The Wall Street Journal that Tesla was searching for a new CEO amid the company's sales slump, stock-price volatility, and public protests.
- Musk explained his previously court-blocked $56 billion pay package aimed to secure voting control to guard against activist investors and to keep him focused on Tesla despite his other commitments.
- Tesla's stock price slid up to 45% earlier this year but has since recovered to be down only 10%, and the automaker experienced a historic 13% plunge in deliveries in the first quarter of 2025.
- Musk's recommitment as CEO may stabilize investor confidence despite ongoing pressure related to his work with the White House's Department of Government Efficiency and concerns about his time allocation.
