JP Morgan Predicts Tesla’s Worst Quarterly Deliveries in Three Years
Analysts at JP Morgan expect Tesla (TSLA) to report its weakest quarterly deliveries in the past three years.
The bank highlights a sharp decline in Tesla’s brand appeal among consumers, leading to lower sales.
> “It is difficult to recall anything similar in the history of the automotive industry, where a brand has lost its value so quickly,” JP Morgan stated.
The drop in Tesla’s demand may be due to increased competition from Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers, slowing global EV demand, and Elon Musk’s controversial policies that negatively impact the company’s image.
Investors are awaiting Tesla’s financial report to assess the severity of the situation.
