Tesla Stock Faces Volatility Amid Musk’s Compensation Package and EV Market Challenges
Tesla's stock (TSLA) has experienced significant volatility this year, influenced by Elon Musk's political engagements and shifting consumer sentiment in the EV market. Early declines were exacerbated by tariff concerns and Musk's government-related activities, but a late spring announcement of reduced government duties sparked renewed investor optimism.
The company's Q3 EV deliveries neared 500,000, setting a record. However, the spotlight now shifts to Musk's unprecedented compensation package, tied to ambitious benchmarks like an $8.5 trillion market cap and 1 million robotaxis in operation. Market watchers remain divided on Tesla's near-term trajectory, with some advising caution until shares retreat to $220.
