Is Elon Musk Working So Hard To Ensure His Pay Package Is Approved By Shareholders In June? Here's What A Fund Manager Says
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares surged after CEO Elon Musk's unexpected visit to China, meeting Premier Li Qiang and other officials, sparking a series of positive announcements. Future Fund's Gary Black speculates this effort is to secure approval for Musk's 2018 compensation plan at the 2024 shareholder meeting, especially after a positive Q1 earnings call and a deal with Baidu ($BIDU). Tesla's recent proxy statement calls for a re-vote on Musk's compensation plan, previously rescinded by a court. Tesla's stock fell over 2% in premarket trading following a 15% rise.

Elon Musk's active efforts in China and the anticipation around the approval of his compensation plan, combined with Tesla's positive Q1 earnings, have contributed to the stock's rally.
