Tesla drops 5% to $1.52 trillion market cap in single-day selloff
Tesla shares plunged 5% on July 2, reducing its market capitalization to $1.52 trillion, according to a Caixin report.
The decline pushed the stock further from the $416.37 price target set by 24/7 Wall St., which remains modestly above current trading levels. The move marks one of the largest single-day percentage drops for the electric-vehicle maker in recent months.
Tesla, which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker TSLA, has seen its market value swing sharply this year as investors weigh demand trends, competitive pressures from Chinese EV makers and the trajectory of autonomous driving technology. The company's market capitalization of $1.52 trillion still ranks among the largest in the world, trailing only a handful of technology mega-caps.
The selloff in a stock as widely held as Tesla can trigger broader ripple effects, given its weighting in major indices and sector-related ETFs. Traders will watch for any catalyst — from delivery numbers to regulatory developments — that could explain the move or set the direction for the sessions ahead.
