It might be time for Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s own fork in the road.
The electric carmaker is set to report quarterly earnings Tuesday afternoon that may say a lot about which direction Musk and the company he has ridden to immense wealth will go next.
The company will update investors on revenue, profit and other key figures after months of turmoil as Musk continues to dedicate a large portion of his time to the Trump administration’s attempt to radically remake the federal government, far away from his corporate responsibilities at Tesla, SpaceX and his other companies.
With Tesla’s stock and brand reputation getting pummeled — and with Trump’s tariff policy threatening to upend the automotive market, Tesla included — many Tesla investors have called on Musk to scale back or end his government work entirely and return his focus to business.
Yes, they wanted to sell busses, tires, petrol and everything else surrounding the products GM (and the co-conspirators) dealt in. So they bought up and dismantled functioning rail services and replaced them with bus lines. Greed was the reason at the expense of the American people. Again.
An American tale.
