Tesla stock has lost momentum, with shares declining amid Elon Musk’s focus on the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Once valued over a trillion dollars, Tesla now trails Broadcom and TSMC. European sales fell 45.2% last month, attributed to negative sentiment following Musk’s controversial gesture at Trump’s inauguration. Experts weigh in: David Materazzi of Galileo FX warns of Tesla’s declining brand, while Alejandro Zambrano of ThinkMarkets believes anti-Tesla sentiment may remain localized to Europe. John Engle of Almington Capital notes Tesla faces economic pressures and market saturation, with price cuts failing to boost demand. David Nicholson of The Futurum Group suggests Tesla’s resurgence could hinge on AI, not EVs. — news from TheStreet
