Jack has a shit ton of money (he's a BTC whale). He can buy his own stock and raise the price when he wants to. Since TWTR employees are compensated heavily in stock options this benefits him in terms of keeping employees committed.
But the Federal Reserve also buys stocks to keep the stock market up. It's called Quantitative Easing (QE). They've been doing it since 2008 to keep the market from crashing. They can buy TWTR with funny money anytime they want and raise the price. Because it's a social control platform the derp state has an interest in keeping it financially strong, even though it never makes money, but it's not supposed to, any more than a tank or a bomber is supposed to make money. First and foremost it's a weapon.
