collapsed, and Tesla plummeted by 1.54 trillion
Tesla, whose stock price is booming in 2023, has been hit hard this year.
On the evening of February 5, Tesla fell sharply again, with the largest intraday decline of more than 7%, and finally closed down 3.65%, closing at $181.06 per share, with a total market capitalization of $576.6 billion.
Since 2024 alone, Tesla's share price has fallen by more than 30%, and its market value has evaporated by 213.395 billion US dollars, or about 1.54 trillion yuan.
Tesla is also the only company whose performance of the seven major technology giants in the US stock market has not grown, and it is also the only company whose stock price has fallen in 2024, and the stock prices of the remaining six technology companies have all risen sharply, such as Nvidia's stock price hit a record high yesterday.
Tesla has also had a lot of troubles lately.
SAP, a German provider of enterprise application software, has removed Tesla from its list of automotive suppliers.
Steffen Krautwasser, head of the SAP fleet, said that the price of Tesla vehicles is more volatile than other manufacturers, making it more difficult for the company to plan, which poses a higher risk.
Although the overall number is small, SAP's exit means that Musk's efforts to expand the corporate car market have been dealt a heavy blow.
Tesla does often adjust prices, drop prices, and switch price increase modes at will, which catches people off guard.
On January 12, Tesla's official website in China was updated to reduce the prices of the Model 3 and Model Y again. According to the official website, Tesla has adjusted the price of the rear-wheel drive version and long-range version of the Model 3/Y, ranging from 6,500 yuan to 15,500 yuan. After the adjustment, the starting price of the Model 3 is CNY 245,900 and the Model Y is CNY 258,900.
On February 5, Tesla announced another price increase, but this time in the United States.
According to Tesla's U.S. website, the company raised the price of the long-range Model 3 to $46,990, compared with the original price of $45,990, a price increase of $1,000.
Tesla's stock price has plummeted, and there has been a lot of negative news about Musk.
Recently, some foreign media broke the news that Musk not only took illegal drugs himself, but also encouraged Tesla's directors to take drugs with him.
Musk has also created peer pressure among his business partners and friends to encourage them to take illegal drugs, so that some friends and directors believe that they must take illegal drugs with Musk or risk "losing their social capital in Musk's circles," people familiar with the matter said.
So far, Musk has not responded to this matter.
