Dow Jumps Over 1,000 Points Amid Upbeat Earnings: Greed Index Remains In 'Extreme Fear' Zone

Investors, including former Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) bull Ross Gerber, appear increasingly skeptical of CEO Elon Musk's ambitious projections following the electric vehicle maker's rough first-quarter results, which saw profits plunge 71% year over year.
What Happened: On Tuesday evening, Gerber posted a cryptic message on X, saying, &#8220;This song is perfect,&#8221; alongside a link to Michael Franti and Spearhead's 2006 track Sweet Little Lies on Apple Music.

In a separate post, Gerber said that in the 11 years that he&#8217;s been covering the company, this is the worst performance he&#8217;s seen. &#8220;I get Elon will tell everyone about trillions of TAM [total addressable market] and robots taking over the world… anything to get you not to look at the facts,&#8221; he says.

Some analysts, however, are finding silver linings in Tesla's latest results. Gary Black, managing partner at The Future Fund, said on X that the company's "earnings quality was fairly high" this quarter, pointing out that, unlike previous periods, profits weren't heavily propped up by sales of zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) credits.
Black also says that Tesla's operating, other operating, and non-operating expenses were significantly higher during the quarter, further reinforcing his point of earnings quality being fairly high.

Why It Matters: Analysts and even investors who were previously bullish on the company have voiced their concerns regarding Musk&#8217;s time away from the company.
This includes Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities, who on Tuesday said, &#8220;Musk <a href="https://benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44933432/tesla-in-code-red-situation-as-analyst-flags-6-threats-tied-to-musks-government-role">needs to leave the govt</a>, take a step back on DOGE, and get back to being CEO of Tesla full-time in our view.&#8221;
Musk, who&#8217;s been spearheading the U.S. Government&#8217;s Department of Government Efficiency said during the earnings call on Tuesday that he will be <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44940401/elon-musk-says-hell-only-spend-day-or-two-per-week-on-government-matters-to-ensure-fraud-does-not-come-roaring-back-ceos-focus-to-shift-to-tesla-beginning-may">spending significantly less time</a> on DOGE, starting from May, allowing him to focus more on Tesla.

Boeing Gears Up For Q1 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) has revealed a collaboration with major defense contractors on an artificial intelligence-powered combat vehicle, connected to its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44190445/palantir-delivers-ai-powered-battle-stations-to-us-army-stock-now-comparable-to-tesla-circa-2015-analyst">Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node program</a>.
What Happened: The data analytics company teased the project through social media, showcasing what appears to be a rugged military vehicle developed alongside Northrop Grumman Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>), Anduril Industries, L3Harris Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LHX#NYSE">LHX</a>), Sierra Nevada Corporation, World Wide Technology, and Pacific Defense Strategies.
The TITAN system represents Palantir&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44190445/palantir-delivers-ai-powered-battle-stations-to-us-army-stock-now-comparable-to-tesla-circa-2015-analyst">expansion as a prime defense contractor</a>, moving beyond software into integrated hardware solutions. Palantir delivered the system&#8217;s first mobile battle stations to the Army earlier this year, meeting time and budget requirements according to company executives.
Each TITAN system consists of a lightweight industrial truck and trailer, powered by Palantir&#8217;s artificial intelligence that gathers data from multiple sources, including satellites.

Why It Matters: This collaboration aligns with Palantir&#8217;s recent work on Hivemind technology with Shield AI, enabling autonomous threat <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42362578/ai-driven-defense-palantirs-new-partnership-with-shield-ai-aims-for-scalable-precision-solutions">detection without human control</a>. The partnership reflects the broader defense industry trend of combining AI software with specialized hardware to create integrated systems for faster battlefield decision-making.
Palantir has significantly expanded its defense footprint recently, finalizing a deal with NATO in March for its Maven Smart System, which enhances <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44792590/palantir-stock-jumps-9-after-nato-adopts-ai-system-for-military-ops">military intelligence fusion and targeting capabilities</a>. The company&#8217;s stock has surged over 300% in the past year as investors anticipate continued growth from both defense contracts and commercial AI applications.
Price Action: Palantir stock closed at $93.99 on Tuesday, up 3.51%. In after-hours trading, it rose 4.12% to $97.86. Year to date, the stock is up 25%.

Palantir Teases TITAN AI Combat Vehicle With Northrop Grumman, Anduril, L3Harris

Some retirees could miss their May benefit checks, former Social Security Commissioner Martin O'Malley cautioned Monday, blaming deep staffing cuts and repeated computer outages for what he called a looming "interruption of benefits."
What Happened: Speaking at a packed town hall hosted by U.S. Reps. Laura Gillen (D-N.Y.) and Tom Suozzi (D-N.Y.), O'Malley said the agency has shed 7,000 workers — half of them from the tech team — since President Donald Trump took office in January, as noted in a <a href="https://www.longislandpress.com/2025/04/22/social-security-delay-breifing/">report</a> by Long Island Press, a free monthly news and lifestyle magazine.
The ex-commissioner, who ran the agency under President Joe Biden from 2023 to 2024, warned that lean staffing has already slowed claims processing and triggered multiple system crashes. "I've never hoped I was wrong so much in my life," he told about 200 anxious constituents at Long Island University.
The Social Security Administration did not immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for comments.
Suozzi slammed the cuts as penny-wise and pound-foolish, noting they shave just 0.06 percent off the agency's budget. Union leader Edwin Osorio agreed, saying employees are "struggling to keep the lights on" while call-center wait times balloon. Gillen, meanwhile, urged residents to log every delay so her office can press for fixes, while Suozzi encouraged bipartisan pressure on lawmakers and the White House.

No checks have been delayed yet, all three speakers stressed. Still, O'Malley said the program that 69 million Americans rely on is at risk if staffing and IT resources aren't restored soon.
Why It Matters: O&#8217;Malley&#8217;s comment at the town hall arrives days after former President Joe Biden delivered a speech in Chicago, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44829975/joe-biden-calls-social-security-a-sacred-promise-slams-trump-administrations-efforts-to-damage-the-program-theyre-shooting-first-and-aiming-later">criticizing</a> the Trump administration for its approach to Social Security.
Biden&#8217;s comments were swiftly rebutted by the Social Security Administration, which accused the former president of lying in a series of posts on X. The Administration said Trump &#8220;has repeatedly promised to protect Social Security.&#8221;
Particularly, the establishment of the Department of Government Efficiency under the Trump administration has sparked anxiety among seniors. DOGE, tasked with cost-cutting, has led to significant job cuts and reorganization within the federal government. DOGE, overseen by Elon Musk, has even called it &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44156805/elon-musk-once-again-calls-social-security-the-biggest-ponzi-scheme-of-all-time-struggles-to-explain-to-joe-rogan-why" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the biggest Ponzi scheme</a>&#8221; of all time.

Social Security Payments Could Face Interruptions In May, Warns Former Commissioner Martin O'Malley: 'Never Hoped I Was Wrong So Much In My Life'

Polymarket punters lowered the odds of a U.S. recession in 2025 on Tuesday, even as the International Monetary Fund acknowledged that the risk of a slump has risen substantially.
What happened: The odds in favor of the betting contract titled &#8220;US recession in 2025?&#8221; dipped 57% to 53% in the last 24 hours on the Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based prediction platform. The probability was 35% a month ago.
Meanwhile, $3.189 million has already been bet on the outcome. This market will resolve to &#8220;Yes&#8221; if the National Bureau of Economic Research declares a recession before January 1, 2026, or if the seasonally adjusted annualized percent change in quarterly U.S. real GDP is negative for two consecutive quarters.
Interestingly, the lowered probability contrasted with the forecast of the IMF, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44926902/imf-slashes-us-growth-outlook-as-trump-tariffs-bite-raises-recession-odds-to-40">raised its U.S. recession odds</a> to 40%.
Moreover, in its April 2025 World Economic Outlook, the IMF projected U.S. GDP growth at just 1.8% for the year, marking a 0.9 percentage point cut from its January forecast. The global organization linked the downgrade to President Donald Trump&#8217;s sweeping tariff policies.

Why It Matters: The dip in odds coincided with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44941092/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-pump-along-with-stock-on-us-china-trade-war-de-escalation-hopes-analyst-flags-95600-98290-as-btcs-next-key-resistance">marked resurgence in the stock market and cryptocurrencies</a> after U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted at a potential de-escalation in trade hostilities with China at a Washington event.

Recession Odds Upped By IMF To 40%, But Polymarket Traders See Less Likelihood As Stocks, Bitcoin Rally

On Tuesday, during Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">first-quarter earnings</a> call, CEO Elon Musk predicted that car ownership will soon become obsolete.
What Happened: Musk said that most people will no longer buy cars in the future, framing the shift as an inevitable change. He compared traditional gasoline vehicles to outdated technologies, likening them to flip phones in an era dominated by smartphones.&nbsp;
&#8220;In the not too distant future, buying a gasoline car that is not autonomous will be like riding a horse while using a flip phone,&#8221; Musk stated.
The tech mogul's comments came in response to an inquiry from Pierre Ferragu, an analyst at New Street Research, who had questioned why Tesla&#8217;s Model 3 and Model Y haven't captured a larger portion of the market.

&#8220;Why are there so many people still buying BMWs and Mercedes?&#8221; he asked.&nbsp;
Ferragu compared the Model 3 to the iPhone, noting how it represented a &#8220;revolutionary product&#8221; with the potential to dominate the car industry in the same way Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) transformed the smartphone market.
Following the earnings call, Ferragu took to X, formerly Twitter, and interpreted Musk's words, saying, ​​&#8221;My interpretation of Elon's response: Tesla will become the iPhone of cars when it is fully self-driving.&#8221;

Why It&#8217;s Important: Tesla reported first-quarter revenue of $19.34 billion, marking a 9% decline compared to the same period last year. The figure came in below Wall Street expectations, falling short of the $21.35 billion consensus estimate.
The EV giant reaffirmed that its plans to launch more affordable models are progressing as scheduled, with production set to begin in the first half of 2025.&nbsp;
Tesla also confirmed that its Robotaxi offering, dubbed the Cybercab, is slated to enter volume production in 2026.
Earlier this month, Tesla disclosed that its Giga Texas production facility uses <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44787364/tesla-deploys-unsupervised-fsd-at-giga-texas-to-move-cars-from-factory-to-lot">Unsupervised Full Self-Driving</a> (FSD) technology to move vehicles from the production line to the outbound logistics lot.
Tesla&#8217;s FSD system relies on a camera-based approach, which is believed to be less precise than the LiDAR-based systems used by companies like Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Waymo.
Waymo has also logged over 20 million miles using Unsupervised FSD, significantly outpacing Tesla in terms of real-world autonomous driving experience. Despite this, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44730939/jeremy-clarksons-trolley-problem-question-about-driverless-cars-from-ages-ago-continues-to-pose-a-moral-dilemma-for-auto-makers">broader debate around self-driving</a> technology remains unresolved.
Tesla's FSD capabilities have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44068902/tesla-fsd-like-a-12-year-old-driving-compared-to-waymo-says-ross-gerber-warning-uber-has-got-to-be-hurting">faced criticism from experts</a> who argue that they fall short of Waymo's performance.
Price Action: Tesla shares rose 4.60% on Tuesday, closing at $237.97. Despite the daily gain, the stock remains down 37.26% year-to-date, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Based on Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Tesla currently holds a growth score of 67.63%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it stacks up against</a> other companies in the sector.

Elon Musk Equates Car Ownership In Future To Riding A Horse While Using A Flip Phone — Pierre Ferragu Says Tesla's 'iPhone Moment' Hinges On Full Autonomy

On Tuesday, OpenAI's behind-the-scenes efforts to improve ChatGPT&#8217;s search capabilities have come to light in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/04/44876356/google-scores-partial-win-in-antitrust-case-but-faces-setback-on-publisher-tools">high-profile antitrust trial</a> targeting Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)-owned Google's dominance in online search.
What Happened: During testimony at the Department of Justice's antitrust trial against Google in Washington, OpenAI executive Nick Turley revealed that the company had attempted to partner with Google to enhance ChatGPT&#8217;s search function, reported Reuters.
The request came after Sam Altman-led OpenAI faced performance issues with its current search provider. While Turley did not name the provider, ChatGPT relies on Microsoft Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Bing search engine for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36678991/microsofts-bing-sees-modest-growth-with-chatgpt-integration-but-google-still-leads-the-search-market">its search functionality</a>.
However, Google declined the request, citing the involvement of too many competitors, as per the email shown at trial.
"We have no partnership with Google today," Turley said on the stand. He added that ChatGPT is still several years from reaching its goal of using its own search technology to handle 80% of user queries, the report noted.
Turley also testified that OpenAI would be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42084064/perplexity-ceo-asks-if-ai-startup-should-acquire-google-chrome-following-dojs-antitrust-push-against-search-giant">interested in buying</a> Google's Chrome browser — if antitrust enforcers were to force Alphabet to divest the product as part of a remedy to restore competition in search.

Why It&#8217;s Important: The trial stems from the DOJ's claim that Google maintains its monopoly through exclusive default search deals. As of October 2024, Google Chrome held the largest share of the U.S. browser market at over 54%, with Apple's Safari coming in second at 31%, according to Statista.
The DOJ's proposed remedies require <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42143421/staggering-google-breakup-proposal-from-doj-a-kitchen-sink-moment-alphabet-analyst">Google to sell its Chrome</a> web browser and end default search engine deals with companies such as Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>). The ongoing trial will decide on these measures, with a final decision anticipated in August.
Previously, it was reported that in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44134685/google-fights-back-against-doj-antitrust-cases-says-breakup-threatens-economy-national-security-report">meeting with government officials</a>, Google representatives voiced serious concerns over the proposed remedies, warning they could drastically impact the company's operations.
Price Action: Alphabet Inc. Class A shares closed Tuesday at $151.47, up 2.57%, and climbed another 2.18% in after-hours trading to $154.77. Class C shares finished at $153.90, rising 2.70%, with an additional after-hours gain of 2.05% to $157.05, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings</a>, the company currently has a growth score of 64.44%. Click here to see how it stacks up against other companies in the sector.

OpenAI Eyes Chrome Takeover: Sam Altman Ready To Pounce If Google Forced To Sell The Web Browser, Executive Reveals

Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) has emerged as the new cryptocurrency growth story of 2025, defying macroeconomic pressures that have deflated many of the space&#8217;s major coins.
What happened: The Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based token soared 121%, becoming the second-highest cryptocurrency gainer in the last 30 days. FARTCOIN added over $600 million to its market capitalization in this period.
The performance dwarfs the returns of market giants like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>), which rose 7.80% and 4.5%, respectively, over the month.
Notably, the growth came amid mounting fears of a recession, induced by President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44893608/trumps-tariffs-add-financial-strain-for-new-parents-amid-rising-baby-gear-costs">sweeping tariff measures</a> against key trade partners.

Speculative interest in the coin has skyrocketed. According to Coinglass, Open Interest, or money locked in derivatives, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/BitcoinOpenInterest">jumped</a> threefold over the last month to $567 million.
Social analytics firm LunarCrush highlighted how social mentions for the coin increased in the run-up to the price rise, indicating a link between social activity and price swings.

Fartcoin Soars 121% In A Month, Dwarfs Bitcoin, Dogecoin Amid Trump Tariff-Induced Economic Jitters

Macroeconomic expert Nouriel Roubini, commonly referred to as &#8220;Dr. Doom,&#8221; has pushed back against President Donald Trump&#8217;s verbal jabs at Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and his escalating attacks on the Federal Reserve&#8217;s autonomy, amid demands for a preemptive rate cut.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Roubini&#8217;s post on X criticized Trump&#8217;s taunts and insults aimed at the Federal Reserve Chair, calling it a &#8220;clumsy blame game,&#8221; which he believes is the only &#8220;semi-rational explanation&#8221; for the president&#8217;s recent behavior.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Powell cannot change monetary policy on his own even if he wanted to: a majority of the FOMC gotta vote for it and the FOMC will not cut rates as inflation will start going higher as tariffs kick in.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Roubini believes that Trump is now setting the stage to blame Powell and the Federal Reserve for the coming slowdown in growth and recession, resulting from his administration&#8217;s tariffs.
See More: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44941025/tesla-optimus-robot-hit-by-chinas-rare-earth-magnet-crackdown-elon-musk-says-thousands-may-be-ready-by-year-end-but-no-guarantees-when-you-have-a-complex-manufactured-product">Tesla Optimus Robot Hit By China&#8217;s Rare Earths Crackdown — Elon Musk Says Thousands May Be Ready By Year-End, But No Guarantees</a>
He said that Powell alone cannot cut interest rates, since it has to be voted on by a majority of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). The FOMC is not going to cut interest rates, he says, because inflation will begin rising again once the tariffs start to kick in.
Roubini added that Trump is "shooting himself in the foot" by floating the idea of firing Powell, noting that the <a href="https://benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44904179/wall-street-sinks-dollar-slides-as-trump-ramps-up-fed-attacks-whats-driving-markets-monday">markets slid in response</a>, with bond yields and credit spreads surging and the dollar continuing to weaken, a move he described as "a repeated own goal."
&#8220;If [the] Fed were to blink and cut short policy rates, the bond yields would go much higher, and equities lower as [the] Fed would be behind the curve in anchoring inflation expectations at a time of inflationary tariffs,&#8221; Roubini says, adding that Powell is, in effect, helping Trump by &#8220;not blinking.&#8221;
Even if Trump were to fire Powell, likely after winning a Supreme Court battle that rules in his favor, Roubini believes that this would be a &#8220;pyrrhic victory,&#8221; as it would lead to &#8220;de-anchoring of inflation expectations,&#8221; which means that the market&#8217;s inflation expectations will start to drift, ultimately leading to higher bond yields.
Why It Matters: Trump has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44940900/us-futures-dollar-jump-amid-trumps-latest-comments-on-fed-nikkei-rebounds-to-three-week-high">since walked back</a> on his comments regarding firing Powell, saying that he had &#8220;no intention,&#8221; and that he &#8220;never did,&#8221; leading to a rally in the markets, the Dollar, and the Treasuries.
Roubini has been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44620056/dr-doom-nouriel-roubini-trumps-liberation-day-tariff-label-is-orwellian-doublespeak-us-playing-with-fire">vocal critic of Trump&#8217;s tariffs</a> since the beginning, referring to the term &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; as &#8220;Orwelian Double-Speak,&#8221; while adding that tariffs would only lead to &#8220;lower growth and higher inflation.&#8221;
He has also repeatedly warned that the <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44677685/dr-doom-roubini-warns-markets-delusional-about-fed-rescue-as-trump-xi-jinping-jerome-powell-locked-in-high-stakes-standoff">markets were delusional</a> about the Federal Reserve&#8217;s willingness to step in, calling it a &#8220;three-way game of chicken&#8221; between Trump, Powell, and Chinese President Xi Jinping, with Trump being most likely to blink first.

What Happened: During Tesla&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">first-quarter earnings call Tuesday</a>, Musk announced he would reduce his involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) beginning in May, limiting his government work to &#8220;a day or two per week.&#8221;
&#8220;Musk has handled the conference call very well. Recommit to Tesla and major step back on DOGE. This was well communicated by Musk on this call in our view&#8230;needed to hear this tone and direction,&#8221; Ives wrote on social media platform X following the call.
In a CNBC <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h08VWiJ9tE">interview</a> Tuesday, Ives characterized Tesla&#8217;s first-quarter results as &#8220;a disaster,&#8221; with deliveries &#8220;significantly&#8221; missing expectations. The company reported revenue of $19.34 billion, down 9% year-over-year and below consensus estimates of $21.35 billion.

Why It Matters: Ives, who maintains a bullish stance on Tesla despite recent concerns, had previously warned of a &#8220;$100 overhang per share&#8221; if Musk remained heavily involved in government activities. He described the earnings call as &#8220;the most important conference call he&#8217;s ever had&#8221; due to mounting brand damage from Musk&#8217;s political associations.
&#8220;If he stays and he doubles down and recommits, then I think this starts to become an avalanche that you can&#8217;t control,&#8221; Ives said, adding that Tesla faces approximately &#8220;15-20% brand damage&#8221; already.
Tesla&#8217;s guidance noted difficulty predicting growth rates due to shifting global trade policies, macroeconomic factors, and &#8220;changing political sentiment.&#8221; The company confirmed its lower-cost vehicle remains on track for production in the first half of 2025.
Price Action: Tesla closed at $237.97 on Tuesday, up 4.60%. After hours, it rose 5.39% to $250.80. The stock is down 37.26% year to date.
According to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Tesla scores in the 13th percentile for Value and the 67th percentile for Growth. How do other EV rivals stack up? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Find out here</a>.

What Happened: Bitcoin drove the surge, surpassing $93,000 for the first time since the first week of March.&nbsp;
The rest of the market followed suit, with Ethereum, which was previously immune to Bitcoin's advances, soaring nearly 12% in the last 24 hours.
Bitcoin's April gains shot up to 12.3%, a marked recovery from the 12% dip in the first quarter of 2025.
The rally hit bearish traders hard as nearly $516 million in short positions were wiped out in the last 24 hours.&nbsp;
However, if Bitcoin reversed to $90,000, over $677 million in bullish long bets were at risk of liquidation.
Bitcoin&#8217;s Open Interest lifted 12.18% in the last 24 hours to a new monthly high, while funds locked in Ethereum's futures contract soared 15%.
Interestingly, over 60% of Binance traders with open Bitcoin positions were betting against the leading cryptocurrency, according to the Long/Short Ratio.
The market sentiment dramatically shifted from &#8220;Fear&#8221; to "Greed," according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $2.92 trillion, following an increase of 5.75% in the last 24 hours.
Stocks staged a sharp recovery on Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1,016.57 points, or 2.66%, to end at 39,186.98. The S&amp;P 500 jumped 2.51% to close at 5,287.76, while the tech-focused Nasdaq Composite gained 2.71% to end at 16,300.42.
The rebound came after U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hinted at a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44930495/wall-street-rebounds-ahead-of-tesla-earnings-dow-adds-1000-points-bitcoin-hits-91000-whats-driving-markets-tuesday">potential de-escalation in trade hostilities</a> with China during a JPMorgan-hosted event in Washington.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Pump Along With Stock On US-China Trade War De-Escalation Hopes: Analyst Flags $95,600-$98,290 As BTC's Next Key Resistance

Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) plans to ramp up production of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/03/44508019/tesla-and-other-us-robotics-giants-demand-federal-strategy-to-compete-with-chinas-138-billion-push-warn-america-will-lose-the-race-without-it">humanoid robot</a> Optimus are facing significant roadblocks due to supply chain constraints and China's new export restrictions on rare earth materials.
What Happened: On Tuesday, during <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">Tesla's first-quarter earnings</a> call, CEO Elon Musk said that Optimus remains in early-stage development, with mass production still months away.
Musk said the company hopes to produce thousands of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43325888/tesla-likely-to-sell-optimus-to-rival-companies-in-2026-price-point-of-humanoid-robot-to-be-detemined-by-demand-says-ceo-elon-musk">robots by the end of the year</a>, but cautioned that progress is "totally impossible" to predict.
The billionaire highlighted one key challenge as China's requirement for export licenses on rare earth magnets—critical components in Optimus actuators.
Tesla's robot arms use permanent magnets to stay compact and efficient, but the new restrictions have disrupted the supply, Musk said.

&#8220;We're working through that with China. Hopefully, we'll get a license to use the rare earth magnets. China wants some assurances that these are not used for military purposes, which, obviously, they're not,&#8221; the Tesla CEO said.
In addition to the geopolitical hurdles, Musk underscored the extreme complexity of Optimus. "Almost everything in Optimus is new," he said, noting the robot has about 10,000 unique parts and no existing supply chain for most components.
&#8220;When you have a new complex manufactured product, it'll move as fast as the slowest and least lucky component in the entire thing,&#8221; he stated.

Why It's Important: Tesla reported first-quarter revenue of $19.34 billion, marking a 9% decline from the same period last year. The figure fell short of Wall Street's expectations, missing the consensus estimate of $21.35 billion.
Previously, it was reported that Tesla is encountering new hurdles in its production plans following the Donald Trump administration's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44831422/donald-trumps-145-tariffs-on-china-could-disrupt-teslas-cybercab-semi-production-report">145% tariffs on Chinese imports</a>.
Tesla has also reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44806701/tesla-suspends-new-orders-for-model-s-and-model-x-in-china-report">stopped accepting new orders</a> for its U.S.-made Model S and Model X in China. Last year, China imported more than 1,553 Model X units and 311 Model S vehicles.
Price Action: Tesla shares increased by 4.60% on Tuesday, reaching $237.97. However, the stock has dropped 37.26% year-to-date, <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">according to Benzinga Pro</a>.
The company currently holds a growth score of 67.63%, based on Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it compares</a> with other companies in the sector.
