The Saudi Kingdom's Public Investment Fund (PIF) might not be willing to bankroll Tesla Inc.’s ( TSLA) plans to go private after all.

Late to the Driverless Revolution
Early in 2011, two top engineers for Google traveled together to Detroit on what amounted to a diplomatic mission. “The idea was, if you’re going to make self-driving cars, you have to work with a car company,” recalls Chris Urmson, who made the trip with fellow engineer Anthony Levandowski. In meetings with a prime parts supplier to the car makers and then with the senior leadership of a major auto company, the pair gave presentations on their vehicle’s capabilities, the number of miles it had driven and the broad strokes of how their self-driving software saw the road.

Analysis: Investors query funding costs at a private Tesla
NEW YORK/BOSTON (Reuters) - Several Tesla Inc shareholders have told Reuters they are concerned that the electric car maker will have to pay more to fund its growth if it becomes a private company and loses the ability to sell new shares to stock market investors. The issue has come to the fore as a special Tesla board committee considers Chief Executive Elon Musk's idea of taking the loss-making company private in a deal that could be worth as much as $72 billion. Tesla, whose bonds are rated "junk" by credit rating agencies due to its $11 billion debt pile and its negative cash flow, has tapped the stock market six times in the last eight years through share sales, raising nearly $4.3 billion, according to data from Dealogic.

"There are growing concerns that the board may consider changing his specific role from CEO and chairman and there could be pressure from the SEC to do this as well based on his tweeting activity," said Ivan Feinseth, analyst at Tigress Financial Partners.

2018 Woodward Dream Cruise: What to know and where to go
If there's anything that proves Detroit's motor-oil-in-the-veins, gearhead bonafides, it's the annual Woodward Dream Cruise, which will bring an anticipated 1.5 million or so people from near and far, plus tens of thousands of classic and custom and just plain weird cars, to a 16-mile portion of Woodward Avenue on Saturday for the 24th year. Loved by gearheads, collectors and the merely curious, who see it as the Motor City's version of Mardi Gras, and loathed by others, who deride it as the world's largest traffic jam, the Dream Cruise is nothing if not an explosion for the senses. The Cruise will officially go from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., though of course cruisers have been out already for weeks.
