And finally... hazy intentions

Tesla founder Elon Musk has denied that he was “on weed” when he announced he wanted to take his company private at $420 a share.

The number 420 is a popular code in cannabis culture for consuming cannabis.

Mr Musk told the New York Times that he picked the number because it seemed like “better karma” than $419, which would have represented a 20 per cent premium over Tesla’s share price.

He added: “But I was not on weed, to be clear. Weed is not helpful for productivity.”
