Only dropping 13%??? Figures I've heard are MUCH worse - Australia, Europe, California, even China much worse

[EliaszPass]

I am 53 and retired at 50. One thing I did do to retire early was to get out of the 401K and IRA programs. Bought rental real-estate and I am now a Limited Partner in about 1500+ units from collaborative efforts in the fund my estate planner has me invested in. I do not work.

[DannyLy-yj]

Only 13% dropped? Disappointing should be at least around 40% drops.

[ljhelbo]

In Denmark it was minus 54% in Q1 2025.

I was part of the recent layoffs at Tesla and this bites hard. I am grateful that I kept some savings about; $600k and I am looking for ways to invest this into the stock market to generate good dividends to supplement for my monthly expenses.

[OK-pifq]

Never wanted a company to go bankrupt more

[samn]

no one wants their car to be a political statement.

[JamesBlume-ui]

Of course sales are dropping; the vehicle catches on fire! LoL!!!

[TheZig]

Who would have thought that being a Nazi would be bad for business.

[paintedpony]

Never underestimate the power of hatred towards a nazi.

[FJBomb]

The brand is tainted. People are afraid they'll be the victim of road rage or their vehicle will be vandalized. I was considering buying a Model 3 this year but won't do it now.

[gregoryh]

Elon said to be prepared for economic hardship. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Mooneypilot]

Elon's end will be worse than Howard Hughes.

[sean]

This was the only good news I’ve heard in the past 2.5 months.

[TheCallie]

Plain and simple, it's his erratic behavior and politics, and it has forever tarnished his brand. He'll never be seen the same again.

[jose-marie]

Tesla is done! There's no coming back from this.

[susangoldsberry]

Sales have dropped because of all the used swasticars available now. 🤫

[reyes]

Did Elon think that going around doing Nazi salutes was actually going to be good for his brand? It might play well with Trump supporters, but the rest of the world still isn't having it.

[kevinduda]

Soon wont be able to insure them, I dont agree with damaging any persons Property, if your after an EV far better looking and featured cars available!

[spectrumboss]

Elon Musk is toxic and I would never utilize any of his brands. This is a great opportunity for the competition
