Tesla Is Hurt By Elon Musk Running SpaceX, Twitter, Investors Say

Tesla, the American electric vehicle and clean energy company, has seen a dip in stock value as CEO Elon Musk focuses his attention on running SpaceX, his space exploration company, and his Twitter account. Investors have expressed concerns that Musk’s divided attention may be impacting Tesla’s success, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tesla recently overtook Toyota to become the world’s most valuable automaker, but the company’s value has since dropped by several billion dollars. Musk’s unpredictable behavior on Twitter, including tweeting about potentially taking Tesla private in 2018, has also caused concern among investors. However, Musk maintains that he remains closely involved with Tesla’s day-to-day operations and that his multiple ventures complement one another. The situation raises questions about the feasibility of a single individual running multiple complex organizations, particularly during periods of crisis. This article highlights the challenges facing entrepreneurs who seek to balance competing demands and explores the impact of Musk’s leadership on Tesla’s future prospects.
