Elon Musk quietly resigned as head of Twitter

Elon Musk has held the position since buying Twitter for $44 billion last October. According to one of the shareholders, the company is now worth a third of that amount.

Musk first said he would step down as CEO of Twitter in December after users voted in a poll. In April, he joked that his dog had taken the place of the leader of the company.

According to an internal presentation obtained by The New York Times, Twitter’s U.S. ad revenue is down 59% year-over-year and regularly lags weekly forecasts by as much as 30%.
