TSLA
Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock is trading lower, continuing a trend of over 8% loss in the past week. The decline is attributed to Tesla's recent price cuts for its Model Y vehicles in several European countries, including Germany, France, Norway, and the Netherlands, with reductions up to 8%. This follows similar price cuts in China amid rising competition. Investors are concerned about the impact of these price cuts on margins, especially with Tesla's Q4 financial results due on Jan. 24, where earnings of 74 cents per share on $25.515 billion revenue are expected. Last quarter, Tesla reported its smallest profit in two years and missed expectations.
