Tesla investor thinks this is why Musk was reportedly set to be replaced

Prominent Tesla investor Ross Gerber reacts to a Wall Street Journal report that Tesla’s board in March contacted multiple executive placement firms to begin a search process for a new CEO to replace Elon Musk. Tesla's chair of the board of directors has since called the reporting "absolutely false," in a statement posted to X, stating "the CEO of Tesla is Elon Musk and the Board is highly confident in his ability to continue executing on the exciting growth plan ahead."
