Tesla Faces Its Challenging Quarter Amid Market Dynamics

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.

Uber CEO Redefines Corporate Innovation Through AI Empowerment

Uber’s Code-Driven Transformation

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi says the company should be understood less as a ride-hailing platform and more as a large technology system built and maintained by engineers. Speaking on The Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett, he described how software development remains central to Uber’s operations and long-term strategy.

Embracing AI As A Preparation Tool

Khosrowshahi explained that some internal teams use an AI tool informally referred to as “Dara AI” to simulate executive feedback during preparation meetings. The system allows teams to test presentations and refine arguments before final reviews. The approach reflects Uber’s broader focus on using AI to improve internal decision-making and workflow efficiency.

Engineering As The Architectural Backbone

According to Khosrowshahi, around 90% of Uber’s engineers are already using AI tools in their daily work, while roughly 30% are considered advanced users applying AI to redesign parts of the company’s infrastructure. The shift positions engineers not only as builders of existing systems but also as key drivers of future product and platform development.

Productivity Redefined

Khosrowshahi noted that AI adoption is significantly improving engineering productivity and accelerating development cycles. The company views these tools as a way to optimize processes rather than replace technical expertise.

Uber’s internal use of AI illustrates how large technology companies are integrating automation into core operations while reshaping how teams collaborate and ship products.
