Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has pulled back about 14.7% from the pre-earnings level of $291.26 and has been between the $210 and $265 levels since then.
The downtrend was set in motion by the man himself. Tesla CEO Elon Musk set off worries concerning further margin erosion by stating in the second-quarter earnings call that a rising-rate environment could necessitate more price cuts.
