Tesla Board Chair Robyn Denholm 10/27/25

Tesla’s shareholders are preparing for a shareholder vote next week, and on the agenda is CEO Elon Musk’s unprecedented proposed payment plan. Board Chair Robyn Denholm discusses why Musk merits the package, and why shareholders should approve the proposal, despite pushback from proxy advisors like Glass Lewis and ISS. Plus, President Trump struck a critical minerals deal with Malaysia before landing in Japan ahead of his meeting with China’s President Xi later this week, the U.S. added an extra 10% tariff on Canada, and ‘Yellowstone’ creator Taylor Sheridan is reportedly leaving Paramount for NBCUniversal.
