Investors' concerns about Tesla CEO Musk's political involvement continue, with some even suggesting that the Tesla board should impose restrictions on it. Long-time Tesla bull and Wedbush Securities analyst Ives called for the Tesla board on the 8th to "take action to establish basic rules for Musk," stating that the "soap opera must end." Specifically, Ives and his team called for the Tesla board to provide Musk with a new compensation package, increase his voting rights in Tesla to about 25%, and clearly define the time that Musk needs to dedicate to Tesla operations as a condition for fulfilling the compensation package. The report also suggested that the board establish a committee to "monitor" Musk's political activities to ensure they do not interfere with his duties as Tesla CEO.
