Compensation of up to one trillion dollars hinges on massive market-cap and operational milestones over the next decade

Tesla’s board has put forward a historic compensation package for Chief Executive Elon Musk, tying up to one trillion dollars in equity to a set of ambitious performance benchmarks over the next ten years.

The package would grant Musk up to twelve percent of Tesla’s shares, delivered through twelve separate tranches, contingent upon the company achieving exponential growth in both market value and operations. The thresholds include multiplying Tesla’s market capitalization by approximately eight times—aiming for around eight to eight point six trillion dollars—and raising adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation from about sixteen billion to four hundred billion dollars. Operational targets entail significant vehicle production, deployment of robotaxis, and manufacturing one million humanoid robots. Musk must remain with the company for a substantial portion of the period to unlock the awards.

This proposal underscores Tesla’s heavy reliance on Musk’s leadership as it shifts from purely electric vehicle manufacturing toward artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation. The package arrives following a prior court dispute that voided Musk’s 2018 pay deal, and follows a fallback award of roughly twenty-nine billion dollars granted earlier this year.

Supporters argue the plan aligns Musk’s incentives with Tesla’s transformation and long-term value creation. Critics, however, raise concerns over corporate governance, potential dilution of shareholder value, and the unprecedented scale of the package. Tesla will hold a shareholder vote on the proposal in early November.

Anchorage meeting balances strategic reassurance with diplomacy amid delicate US–China relations
Late in August 2025, senior defence officials from the United States and Taiwan convened in Anchorage, Alaska, for confidential discussions, underscoring the enduring importance of strategic communication even amid complex geopolitical dynamics.

The United States was represented by Jed Royal, the Acting Indo-Pacific Defence Official, while Taiwan was led by Hsu Szu-chien, then Deputy National Security Adviser.

The meeting followed the cancellation of a previously planned high-level U.S.–Taiwan defence dialogue in Washington, which was shelved to avoid disrupting delicate trade negotiations and plans for a summit between President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping.

The decision to shift the talks to Alaska reflected a careful balancing act—maintaining vital communication with Taipei while managing sensitivities in Beijing.

Taiwan’s delegation underscored the urgency of timely engagement, particularly regarding defence procurement planning and budget submission.

This comes amid heightened regional tensions, including China’s recent military parade and Taiwan’s proposed record increase in defence spending—set to exceed three point three percent of GDP.

Political analysts interpret the Alaska meeting as a signal of the Trump administration’s commitment to both preserving trade conversations and affirming U.S. support for Taiwan.

The event also reflects Taipei’s determination to sustain military readiness and to reaffirm ties with U.S. institutions, including those aligned with Trump’s Make America Great Again policy base.
