Tesla’s market capitalization plummeted by approximately $152 billion following a public dispute between its CEO, Elon Musk, and U.S. President Donald Trump. The spat, which unfolded on social media platforms, resulted in a 14% drop in Tesla’s stock value, marking one of the most significant single-day losses in the company’s history. Musk criticized Trump’s legislative agenda, specifically targeting provisions that threaten electric vehicle tax credits, which are crucial for Tesla.
