In it, the agency asks why Musk did not update his public filings when he tweeted on May 17 that the"deal cannot move forward." "Please be advised that you remain responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures in your beneficial ownership statements irrespective of our review of any of your filings," the SEC reminded Musk on June 2.
