Almost everything said about Tesla Inc. these days ranges from bad to worse.
The majority of 61 analysts following the electric vehicle and clean energy company led by Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk say investors should avoid buying the stock. Plummeting sales at home and abroad underscore Bloomberg Intelligence research showing 31% of car buyers -- including 41% of women who identify as Democrats – are less likely to purchase a Tesla after Musk, the unelected leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, became a pariah inside and outside the White House. President Donald Trump accused his biggest campaign donor of being a “big-time drug addict.” Even Musk's artificial intelligence-powered chatbot, Grok, said Tesla is in a “precarious position” with a 15% to 25% risk of a “death spiral.”
