A video came out last week comparing two approaches to autonomous vehicles: cameras and LiDAR. The video was fun, as YouTube videos are wont to be, but the fallout from it has been anything but fun, with pretty much everyone missing the point of the video in the first place.

More than three in five readers of The Australian Financial Review say Elon Musk’s behaviour has made them less likely to buy a Tesla, as the electric car manufacturer contends with a share price coll

Elon Musk told shareholders on Thursday to hold onto their stock, even as sales of the electric vehicles are falling. I have or had a friend who owned two Teslas, and had his entire stock in Tesla. He is a Democrat and he claims to be a nihilist. I don't see how one can identify as a nihilist and also try to save the environment. In any case, I had been trying to get him to diversify his retirement portfolio.I told him, "If you are able, I think you should get out of Tesla. It's not that the company won't be able to recover - it might - but considering everything else, why would anyone stay vested in Tesla?

'I've been trying to get him to diversify his retirement portfolio'. I have or had a friend who owned two Teslas, and had his entire stock in Tesla. He is a Democrat and he claims to be a nihilist.

It's not that the company won't be able to recover - it might - but considering everything else, why would anyone stay vested in Tesla?" This largely random subject caused us to cease communications.Tesla's acceleration is amazing, but that is a small sacrifice. Other companies offer hybrids and EVs. Are MAGA supporters going to take up the slack in sales?Yet he stopped speaking to me. Is that normal?You are hardly a lone voice when it comes to your opinion on Tesla's stock uncertain future, at least in the short term. On Tuesday, Trump bought a Tesla after p

Tesla doesn’t deserve to be in the Magnificent Seven—and that means investors need a different strategy to trade the ever-controversial electric-vehicle maker.The Mag Seven, of course, are Amazon.com,

There are nearly 14,000 used Teslas for sale nationwide this week, in a market complicated by politics. Lindy Lowe had one of the rarest perks in the electric-vehicle world: free charging for life.Her gray Tesla Model X, bought in 2019, came with that "wonderful" charging deal and a seven-year warranty, she said. Never an Elon Musk fan, Lowe just enjoyed driving her Tesla around the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. She mostly didn't associate her car with Tesla Inc.'s chief executive.After the November elections, Lowe said, her husband was ready to sell the car but she held back, in part because of the free charging. Then she saw Musk's post on X, the social-media platform he owns, in early February implying that federal employees don't work hard enough.If some of those Trump supporters are looking for a used Tesla, there will be plenty to choose from. Autotrader.com showed nearly 14,000 used Teslas for sale nationwide this week, a big increase from just a few months ago.The percent

Yet another setback for Elon Musk's claim of a $1 trillion 'DOGE dividend'. Less than a day after Elon Musk promised to find $1 trillion in free money by cutting "fraud and waste" from the federal government - an amount equal to about one federal dollar in seven - his claim has been undercut by yet another government report.Total federal "improper payments" last year came to $162 billion, according to figures released by the Government Accountability Office.And the Biden administration had already slashed that figure by a third, or $74 billion, from the year before, as pandemic-era programs were wound down, the GAO added.The further you look into the report, the worse news becomes for everyone who had already been planning out how to spend their share of the so-called DOGE dividend.For instance, the GAO's "improper payments" figure included $7.9 billion in underpayments, which is where the federal government failed to pay people what they were owed.But if that seems like an easy way to

Tesla stock hit a record high in December, but it's already down a whopping 44% from that peak.Investors are bullish on future opportunities like the Cybercab and Optimus robot, but it's impossible to ignore the recent declines in electric vehicle sales.Tesla stock is extremely expensive right now, and it could have much further to fall.
