Tesla shares open lower, struggling with investor confidence

Tesla's share price opened lower on Tuesday, struggling to recover from a 15 percent drop the previous day. The decline was part of a broader market downturn linked to recession concerns. As trading began, Tesla's stock fluctuated between flat and a 1.5 percent gain, eventually rising by 3 percent. Analysts noted that CEO Elon Musk's focus on his role in the Trump Administration may be affecting his leadership at Tesla. Concerns have grown about Musk's absence from Tesla facilities in recent months. Analysts suggest this perception is impacting investor confidence in the company's stock.
