After Tesla Inc.’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) underwhelming third-quarter results, CEO Elon Musk appears to have sought solace in video games and lighthearted exchanges on X (formerly Twitter), the social media platform he acquired for $44 billion.
In the third quarter, Tesla’s adjusted earnings and revenue significantly undershot Wall Street’s expectations. While Future Fund managing partner Gary Black said Musk’s call with analysts after the results received reviews that ranged from “not good” to “terrible,” Tesla bull Daniel Ives termed it a “mini-disaster.”
