Tesla Stock Takes a Thrilling Dive

Tariffs Rock the Boat—Is This Tesla’s Moment to Shine or Sink?

Hold onto your hats because Tesla’s stock has been on an absolute rollercoaster! Since President Trump dropped his tariff bombshell last week, shares have taken a proper battering, plunging over 20% as global markets wobbled like a wonky wheel.

On Monday, 7 April, the carnage peaked with a stomach-churning 9.2% drop, dragging the price to £217.41—well below the £235 “cheapest it’ll ever be” mark that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick boldly touted just days earlier. By Tuesday, the damage was clear: Tesla’s stock was down nearly 40% for 2025, wiping a colossal £660 billion off its market value since its dazzling mid-December high.

That’s enough to buy a small country, folks! Analysts are pointing fingers at Trump’s aggressive auto tariffs, which threaten to hike vehicle prices across the board. But here’s the kicker—Tesla’s US-based factories, like the Fremont and Texas Gigafactories, give it a leg-up over rivals reliant on foreign parts. Could this be a golden opportunity for Tesla to flex its domestic muscle? Investors are on tenterhooks, with all eyes glued to the Q1 earnings report on 22 April.

Deliveries are already down 13% year-on-year, sparking whispers of tougher times ahead. Yet, some market watchers reckon this dip could be a savvy investor’s dream—buy low, win big. What’s your take—are tariffs about to derail Tesla’s rocket ship, or is this just a speed bump on the road to glory?
