Musk’s political ties move the concerns of investors
JP Morgan says that the sudden drop in Tesla’s value is incomparable with any other moment in the history of the automobile, noting that Musk’s involvement in the government’s ministry of efficiency weighs heavily on the perceptions of the Tesla brand.
“Mr. Musk’s work with the government’s Ministry of Effectiveness has proven controversial at the national level, and although many members of the political right can be satisfied because those on the left are unhappy, the effect on Tesla sales nevertheless seems negative,” said analysts.
The growing discontent for Tesla is not only visible by downward sales, but also by recent demonstrations in the exposure rooms of the company, and an increase in vandalism on Tesla vehicles and the overeating stations not only in the United States, but also internationally.
