Investors are glued to Tesla (TSLA) at writing following reports that its billionaire chief executive, Elon Musk, will personally oversee European sales after firing Omead Afshar – the company’s vice president of manufacturing and operations – last week.
Musk is seizing operational control at a time when the EV maker is scrambling to stabilize sales in Europe. According to the latest data, TSLA registrations were down 61.5% in Denmark and 64.4% in Sweden last month.
