I know 2 who have changed plans but they are representative of a much wider sentiment that’s so obvious I doubt whether you will attempt to deny it.

It’s what was said! That it cannot be 100% true and only apocryphal is probably true but nonetheless the story was said sincerely. There was no sales pitch because I wasn’t buying anything.

I see, you are back on that silly assertion. Something that with only a modicum of research you could prove unfounded.

So Musk has announced he is stepping back from his political activities to concentrate on Tesla following yesterday’s financial results. The world breaths a sigh of relief.
It will keep him busy. The EV market has already changed. This article explains a lot:-

I know five people who are going there; three of whom have already been this year. Is that any more conclusive than your two who won't go? I would add that none of them are Trump fans just people who don't feel the need to advertise their antipathy towards him.

No one suggests that travel will stop. Especially business travel. I know someone who has already been there twice, and to Brazil. Only that it’s having an impact. How big will be known when the stats become available.

Hardly unique. It's having an impact here too.

Let’s wait and see how busy the transatlantic flights are in the summer. How do you know they are representative? Something you have read?
But not true 😉

That’s interesting, thanks. It’s obviously concerning and no doubt will be taken seriously by the government. Is it part of a world wide trend?Hardly unique. It's having an impact here too.

The reasons though are different to what is happening to the USA. Starmer might be unpopular in right wing web forums but he isn’t causing chaos in global markets by imposing ill thought out tariffs and general bully boy tactics.

I think the fundamental point is true. They are seeing many Tesla owners wanting to offload their cars coming in to test drive the alternatives. Not though that every Tesla that passes turns in.

The stats seem to already be suggesting a decline but the bigger picture will emerge in time.
How do I know? The same way you do, by watching, listening and evaluating the reactions. Then reaching conclusions. Which could always be wrong but I wouldn’t bet on them not being right.

Are the reasons different? Many people just don't have the money for expensive holidays.

Why don't you prove it unfounded?

Oh no. Looks like Tesla stock price is up 6 percent this morning 🤷🏻♂️ 🙄
Conspiracy theory surely 😂

The US market isn't even open in our morning!
Tesla had a decent day yesterday, but the trend is still unequivocally down - ~11% in the last month.

It still shows it's up. Maybe it was at close price last night 🤣
The trend is up over the last 5 years 👍🏻
