Tesla's sales are dropping, in large part because many EV buyers would be embarrassed to be seen driving a car made by a company run by a guy that's actively dismantling the US government and who gave a Nazi salute at a rally when Trump was inaugurated. If they weren't selling carbon credits to other manufacturers, they'd be operating at a loss.
If I were a Tesla shareholder, I'd be pessimistic about the company's future as long as Elon's name is associated with the brand.
They were a highly successful company that made some of the most popular cars, but now their brand is toxic solely because of the actions of their CEO. Tesla is would be much better off without him.
