Controversial Tesla CEO Elon Musk complained about his company’s stock price on Twitter on Friday, and in less than an hour he erased $ 14 billion from its stock value.
“Tesla’s stock price is too high,” said the CEO, who has 33 million followers on the social network.

Over the course of an hour, the share price of the electric car company fell as much as 10%, then recovered slightly. The move came in a period that has been highly volatile for Tesla’s shares.
