> Not going to change the buying market.

Price changes absolutely change the buying market. What a weird thing to say. A lot of people will never buy a Tesla, a lot still will (they delivered 300k+ vehicles in Q1). The ones who still will buy will also consider the price.



No company can withstand political backlash at a national scale.

Tesla has lost significant ground just because Merlin started playing politics. Target is suffering badly from their DEI decision.

Globally, Tesla is in even worse shape. No one in Europe will be buy one now. China makes their own EVs.

The stock is being propped up by institutional investors. Eventually even that will collapse.


All of those things are true, and none of that is mutually exclusive to price changes affecting (what is left of) the buyer demand.
