The stock, down 8% last week alone, has now fallen for eight consecutive weeks, pressured by mounting challenges in key global markets, especially China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investor anxiety intensified following Tesla\u2019s announcement of a free trial of its Full-Self Driving (FSD) software in China, one of its most critical regions. The promotion, available from March 17 to April 16, is open to all owners with compatible hardware. However, it failed to stem concerns over Tesla\u2019s broader struggles in China, where stringent data privacy laws hinder its ability to collect and transfer driving data needed for FSD training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO Elon Musk acknowledged the dilemma during Tesla\u2019s Q1 earnings call, citing restrictions from both Chinese and U.S. governments. Tesla has turned to Chinese tech giant Baidu to enhance its mapping data, a notable shift from Tesla\u2019s previous reliance solely on visual input for FSD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, Tesla\u2019s FSD lags behind domestic rivals like Xpeng and BYD, the latter recently partnering with DeepSeek AI on its \u201cGod\u2019s Eye\u201d autonomous system\u2014posing a significant threat to Tesla\u2019s market share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compounding these issues are brand challenges in Europe and the U.S., exacerbated by Musk\u2019s controversial political stances and leadership of the White House\u2019s DOGE initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to investor worries, JPMorgan slashed its Q1 delivery forecast by 15%, now expecting 355,000 units, far below consensus. Analyst Ryan Brinkman cited a historic loss in brand value, calling the situation nearly unprecedented in the auto industry. Tesla\u2019s official delivery figures are expected in early April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might like this article:<a href=\"https:\/\/stoxpo.com\/index.php\/2025\/03\/14\/ulta-beauty-posts-strong-q4-results-but-warns-of-a-tough-2025-ahead\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Ulta Beauty Posts Strong Q4 Results but Warns of a Tough 2025 Ahead<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Free FSD Trial in China Fails to Calm Investor Concerns as JPMorgan Slashes Q1 Delivery Forecast Tesla (TSLA) shares plunged more than 6% on Monday, continuing a steep decline that has seen the EV giant lose hundreds of billions in market value.
