Elon Musk takes the witness stand again in a trial over whether he purposefully misled investors when he tweeted that he had 'secured' funding to take Tesla private.

Yichuan Cao / Sipa USA via AP fileTesla CEO Elon Musk took the witness stand again Monday in a trial over whether he purposefully misled investors when he tweeted that he had"secured" funding to take the electric car maker private.

Musk is being sued by Tesla investors who claim the August 2018 take-private tweet caused them to lose substantial sums of money. U.S. Judge Edward Chen has already ruled the tweet was false and reckless — but Musk believes he can convince the jury that he did not know the tweet was false when he sent it, and that in any case the movements of Tesla's stock price are not directly tied to his tweets.

The word secured is past tense, so he misled them.
