just look at tesla sales

Tesla (TSLA, Financials) is feeling the chill in Europe. Its April sales plummeted across key markets like France and Denmark, as political controversy and growing competition weigh on the brand.

In France, Tesla sold just 863 vehicles last month a 59.4% year-over-year drop and its fourth straight monthly decline. Sales in Denmark were even worse, falling 67.2% to only 180 vehicles.

Year-to-date, Tesla's France sales are down nearly 44%, compared to a 7.3% dip in the overall market.

It's not just about cars anymore. Tesla's limited model lineup is facing heat from new and cheaper electric vehicles especially from Chinese brands. But it's CEO Elon Musk's politics that may be burning hotter.

His outspoken support of President Trump has sparked protests across Europe, including vandalism at Tesla showrooms and charging stations. Many consumers appear to be voting with their wallets.

Tesla's European slump adds to a rough quarter. In Q1, the company's auto revenue dropped 20%, and net income plunged 71%, both missing expectations. April's data suggests the pain may continue into Q2.

More European data is expected soon, but for now, the signs point to a rocky road ahead especially if brand perception continues to slide.

will delisting of chinese ADR crash the market?

DeepSheet answer:

The delisting of Chinese ADRs (American Depositary Receipts) from U.S. exchanges could cause market volatility, but whether it leads to a full-blown market crash depends on several factors:

1. Magnitude of Delistings
- If only a few companies are delisted (e.g., due to audit disputes), the impact may be limited.
- A mass delisting (e.g., hundreds of Chinese stocks) could trigger panic selling, especially in sectors like tech (e.g., Alibaba, JD.com, Pinduoduo).

2. Investor Sentiment & Contagion Risk
- Foreign investors may lose confidence in Chinese equities, leading to broader sell-offs in Hong Kong and mainland markets (Shanghai/Shenzhen).
- A sharp drop in ADRs could spill over into U.S. tech stocks if risk aversion rises.

3. Alternative Listings (Hong Kong/Shanghai)
- Many Chinese firms have **dual listings** in Hong Kong (e.g., Tencent, Meituan). If ADRs convert smoothly to HK shares, the shock may be contained.
- However liquidity in Hong Kong is lower, which could depress valuations.

4. Geopolitical & Regulatory Risks
- If delistings are seen as part of a broader U.S.-China financial decoupling, markets could react negatively to escalating tensions.
- China may retaliate with its own restrictions, worsening the fallout.

5. Market Liquidity & Hedging
- Institutional investors (hedge funds, ETFs) may need to unwind positions quickly, causing short-term disruptions.
- Derivatives (options, futures) linked to ADRs could amplify volatility.

US stock futures edged lower Sunday evening, signaling a potential cooldown after the S&P 500 wrapped up its longest winning streak in over 20 years.

Futures attached to the S&P 500 sank 0.7%, while Dow Jones Industrial Average futures trickled down 0.6%. Futures tied to the Nasdaq slipped 0.6%.


Bears are gonna de-frost after so many days

:grin:
Brace for the return of the bear guru!

Lai lai, guys, let's play the 'guess' game.

FOMC this Wednesday - cut, maintain, or raise?


For moi, I vote "maintain" or unchanged. I also have a strong feeling Trump will go into his fit-rage and become keyboard warrior kpkb on truth social on firing Powell again, and it will scare the markets once more.


@tazzycorner forgot to say this, bro... gxgx on CRWV. I sold mine early last week before it was pumped above $46.
