Summary
Tesla reported its worst quarterly results in four years, with Q1 income down 71% and EV sales falling 13%.
Elon Musk vowed to refocus on Tesla amid backlash over his political role in the Trump Administration’s DOGE program, but analysts doubt his return will fix worsening issues.
Tesla faces eroding market share, failed products like the Cybertruck, and a coming 145% tariff on imported Chinese battery cells set to hammer the company’s battery pack business, one of the only bright spots last quarter.
Musk’s pivot to robotaxis and humanoid robots lacks credibility, and critics say Tesla has no compelling new EVs to revive growth.

Bail out and never come back. Only way else Tesla is done.
The being a Nazi strategy didn’t pan out I guess
Has he considered resigning?
From life…

Weird way to say fuck off to Mars.
Reinstate Eberhard and Tarpenning.
That’s not enough. As long as Musk owns even one share of Tesla, he makes money each time a Tesla car sells, and a lot of people including I can’t stomach that.
I might consider purchasing a Tesla vehicle if I knew Musk doesn’t get any of my money. As long as he gets even one cent of my money, I’ll buy some other brand.
The whole board and major investors condoned this. Fuck the whole brand. Now and forever. They don’t need to be redeemed if they do the right thing, we’ll be fine without them. The smart people that actually make things happen will go work for better companies.
He handpicked the board
Exactly. Fuck them.
If he resigns, Tesla becomes just another car company. Car companies get a P/E ratio of 7 (if they’re well run). Tesla’s P/E ratio is above 160. Elon Musk’s “genius” leadership is how Tesla investors have convinced themselves that they’re not investing in a typical car company. If he goes, the stock tanks. But, then again, if he stays, the stock tanks because he’s clearly not a genius, and even if he was he’s an evil genius and people don’t want to buy cars associated with his brand.
Well, someone sure is propping up his fascist memestock.
I’m not a stock market person. I know fuck all about it.
But I’ve been watching the stock for a while now, and that’s the only conclusion I can come to. Someone has to be buying shit loads of the stock to keep it afloat.
Did he try to carry a sink into Tesla?
One thing that must be made clear to casual observers is that the Tesla stock price is still batshit crazy high.
The logic to support the price is:
Your are not buying the current company, you are buying the cool stuff Elon is making in the future.
Without that leap of faith, the price has to collapse. There is no way an electric car company will ever support even the current stock price.
There will be a tremendous amount of copium ingested before gravity hits, but the bigger fool theory will have its way.
One thing that must be made clear to casual observers is that the Tesla stock price is still batshit crazy high.
Earnings report is really bad … stock price surges! Make it make sense.
I wonder how many people have gone broke trying to short Tesla. It just doesn’t make sense, but apparently the market has an infinite ability to be irrational.
Textbook example of “The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.”
All he had to do was shut his fucking mouth. Tesla sells a competitively-price product and has a strong moat with their charging network. He is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, all because he doesn’t know how to STFU.
Elon’s entire career is about creating hype with the help of his loyal sycophants and then profiting off it.
Become a Nazi lose your company. You have been warned.
I’m afraid we need a good ryme, or a 3 word chant in order for it to actually resonate… anyone got a go woke go broke equivelant for nazi’s or white supremacists.
Go nazi go kamikaze?
Go Musk, go bust?
At our match they were chanting
No Nazis! No kings!
These are not American things!Good stuff.
go fash, lose cash
Go Fascist get your ass kicked?
Die nazi
Ketamine does cause brain rot
Even if one of his ideas were to apologize for the nazi salute I think the “saving Tesla” ship has sailed.
Bet he regrets stopping people from burning down Tesla stores now cause he was claiming insurance for those.
One thing that might help is to stop carrying around that human shield. Just a matter of time after that.
Tesla cannot be saved until and unless Musk sells his share of the company and completely divorces himself from it. Even that may not be enough, as the brand is so closely associated with Musk that his stain may not wash off, but it’s their only chance.
90% of what is keeping Tesla’s value is the tech bro community’s absolute belief in Elmo. If he sold all of his shares the value of the stock would plummet to almost zero. Hell if he even just sold a moderately large portion of his shares the stock price would plummet dramatically. That’s why he’s always so reluctant to sell his stock and basically uses it to leverage loans.
That’s not why. The why is to avoid a taxable event.
He actually had to sell some of his stock to pay taxes a couple of years ago. And when he did so it dramatically dropped the price of the stock. So no. There’s a rule in place that if you have a stock for X amount of time you do not have to pay taxes on it when you sell it.
You pay less taxes on long term, but not no taxes. That’s why you take loans against it.
Thank you for confirming my point.
I think we are lacking reading comprehension skills.
Selling stock = taxable event, taxes (big or small).
Getting a loan against stock = no taxable event, zero taxes.
It will, it just takes a lot of years. Lets not forget that Hugo Boss and Volkswagen were nazi germany companies.
They’re still quite popular even though one made military uniforms and the other vehicles.
And that can really only begin with his departure from the company. And his divestment.
A lot of people are going after Tesla because he owns a shit load of it and we want to bury him- not because we particularly care about Tesla.
Once he’s gone from the company, then they can rebuild, it eh…. He has to leave first.
But you guys, Henry Ford like Hitler toooooo!
Yeah that’s why all car companies and new cars, large vehicles etc should be boycotted.
