It's entirely possible DOJ decided this was a good time to leak this information. For instance, just spitballing, they might be saying, "hey, we're going to bring charges, but not for a while, and we want to tell investors ahead of time so that the news causes less volatility, and the volatility will be better isolated to just Tesla." No real way to know from the outside, unless they bring charges against a leaker.
