📝 Today’s Tesla News Summary
🇪🇺 FSD Approval in Europe: Dutch regulators granted approval for Tesla’s Full Self-Driving Supervised system — the first European regulatory sign-off for Tesla’s advanced driver assistance technology. The system handles most driving tasks on highways and city streets under human supervision, potentially paving the way for broader FSD adoption across the continent.
🚗 New Affordable SUV: Reuters reported Tesla is developing a smaller, more affordable electric SUV to be produced first at Shanghai Gigafactory, supporting both domestic sales and robotaxi ambitions. Tesla China quickly denied the report, adding to stock volatility.
📈 Stock Performance: Tesla shares trading around $349, pressured by weak delivery numbers and rising inventory. Despite broader market rally on Iran ceasefire hopes, Tesla has remained largely flat.
💰 Ark Invest Buying: Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest added $11.4M worth of Tesla shares, doubling down on her bullish long-term thesis.
🚀 SpaceX-Tesla Speculation: Barron’s analysis suggests a potential Tesla-SpaceX merger could be Elon Musk’s ultimate strategic endgame as SpaceX reportedly plans to go public.
