Tesla Faces Its Challenging Quarter Amid Market Dynamics

by News Editor

April 2, 2025

On Wednesday, Tesla is set to disclose critical figures reflecting the effects of controversial actions by CEO Elon Musk, impacting its business narrative. Key analysts on Wall Street have raised concerns over the automaker’s growth trajectory.

Key Insights

By midweek, Tesla will release the number of vehicles delivered in the opening quarter of 2025—a pivotal performance indicator ahead of its later financial report.
The projections hint at 408,000 deliveries, marking a 5% rise from last year’s corresponding quarter.
However, emerging data may indicate a potential year-over-year drop in Tesla’s deliveries.
Top investment banks, including Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley, have scaled back their delivery forecasts to a range between 351,000 to 375,000.
Platforms such as Kalshi predict Tesla will announce 353,000 deliveries, which could reflect a 9% annual decrease.
Such figures could mark a historic low surpassing last year’s first quarter, depicting the weakest growth trajectory since at least 2017.
The alleged decline in global demand, notably in the EU and China, further complicates the scenario, with intensified competition in the latter adding to Tesla’s challenges.

Market Dynamics And Reactions

Despite these speculations, Tesla’s shares have risen by over 3.5% amid broader tech stock gains. However, potential new tariffs by former President Trump could impact Tesla, given its reliance on global supply chains.

Looking Ahead

In light of shifting dynamics, Tesla is seemingly pivoting from being a pure automaker towards exploring artificial intelligence and robotics. While delivery numbers may dip, analysts from Morgan Stanley suggest Tesla’s stock continues to hold growth potential.
