The tech billionaire increased his stake in SolarCity as the solar rooftop installer’s stock fell to a 22-month low. Musk, who serves as chairman of the San Mateo-based solar company, purchased 123,510 shares for $40.49, or about $5 million worth, increasing his holdings in the company by almost 0.6 percent.

Musk currently owns 20,805,082 shares. SolarCity closed up $3.62, or 8.83 percent, to end the day at $44.61 per share. While based in California, SolarCity is the biggest installer in Arizona and has hundreds of employees in the state.
