‘Brace for More Downside,’ Says Investor About Tesla Stock
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is feeling the heat in 2025, sinking 33% as investor worries mount. Concerns over elevated valuations, escalating global trade tensions, and slowing EV sales and deliveries have all taken a toll, dragging shares lower.
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is feeling the heat in 2025, sinking 33% as investor worries mount. Concerns over elevated valuations, escalating global trade tensions, and slowing EV sales and deliveries have all taken a toll, dragging shares lower.
Yet, for Tesla evangelists, the future still holds sparks of promise. Optimists are looking to the firm’s revamped Model Y – currently beginning deliveries in the U.S. – which could help Tesla’s sagging EV sales. Beyond that, Tesla’s ambitions extend well past electric cars, with Elon Musk doubling down on his vision of robots and robotaxis hitting the market in the quarters ahead.

Ultimately, Tesla isn’t just a car manufacturer – it’s a bet on the future. And for believers, that future still hinges on Musk’s knack for selling grand visions and sustaining the hype.

Tesla’s stock may be down 42% from its highs, but with breakthroughs in self-driving, energy storage, and robotics on the horizon, this dip could be a prime buying opportunity for long-term investors.
Tesla’s TSLA -3.93% ▼ stock has been on a wild ride, and shareholders are getting nervous. After surging in late 2023 following Donald Trump’s election win, shares are now hovering 42% below their December highs. The sell-off has been fueled by a flurry of Elon Musk’s controversies, weakening demand in Europe, and renewed concerns about Tesla’s bloated valuation. However, with Elon Musk’s ambitious targets being actively pursued, 2025 is set to be a blockbuster year for the tech giant.
