Listen to today’s 2.5-minute audio briefing covering Tesla’s stock move, Gigafactory Berlin expansion, the Sunrun VPP partnership, and the Texas crash lawsuit.
📰 Today’s Tesla News Summary
1. Stock drops 5.4% in broad Mag Seven sell-off. TSLA closed at $375.12, down $21.26 (-5.36%) from Wednesday’s close of $396.38. The slide came as the Mag Seven shed nearly $3 trillion in market value this month, and chipmaker Micron briefly overtook both Tesla and Meta in market cap on AI-driven memory demand.
2. Tesla to hire 1,000 more Gigafactory Berlin workers. European demand is rebounding, and the site is gearing up for a production ramp to 7,500 vehicles per week, a level not sustained since early 2025. Hiring covers stamping, paint, and final assembly.
3. Tesla + Sunrun announce 16 GW Virtual Power Plant for data centers. The partnership positions Tesla’s energy storage business (Powerwall + Megapack + solar) as a critical supplier to AI infrastructure. Some analysts now see Tesla’s energy arm as a quietly undervalued growth pillar separate from automotive.
4. Lawsuit filed over fatal Texas crash. The family of a 76-year-old woman killed in her Katy, Texas home has sued Tesla, alleging the vehicle’s Full Self-Driving software failed to recognize her inside the garage. Tesla maintains FSD is a driver-assist feature and does not make cars autonomous.
