With Tesla sliding 9% today, its Trump bump is solidly gone

Tesla’s election stock price rocket ride is officially over. On Election Day, the stock closed at $251.44. As of 9:55 a.m. ET, it’s at $244.49, or down about 3% from then, thanks to a sharp drop in the stock price Monday morning.

It’s been a pretty epic fall: at one point the stock had risen more than 90% since Election Day. Tesla’s stock price briefly went below that election threshold on Friday but recovered.

This is happening as Tesla sales decline around the world, as do analysts’ delivery estimates, throwing water on the EV maker’s aim to “return to growth” in 2025.

Tesla’s EV market share declined to 38% in August

In August, Tesla’s share of the US EV market fell to 38%, according to new data from Cox Automotive reported by Reuters. Tesla’s market share fell below 50% for the first time last year, as competitors’ EVs began hitting the market. Now, as Tesla’s own sales slip more drastically than they had last year, it’s giving up even more ground. Tesla’s market share fell from 48.7% in June to 42% in July to 38% in August, according to Reuters. That slide has come even as buyers rushing to take advantage of the federal tax credit that ends this month provide a near-term boon for sales at Tesla and other EV makers.
