Tesla (TSLA) faces a pivotal moment as Inauguration Day is just a few days away. Investors are keenly watching the relationship between CEO Elon Musk and President-elect Donald Trump. Musk reportedly donated $132 million to Trump’s election campaign and will also head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) within the new administration.
The electric vehicle maker’s stock has shown impressive gains, rising over 70% since Trump won the election in November. While Tesla has crushed broader market returns over the last two months, a prominent shareholder, Ross Gerber, has voiced concerns about Musk splitting his focus between Tesla and his growing political role.
