Elon Musk finally acknowledged what must be done to rescue Tesla You can catch Opening Bid on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts. Elon Musk wasted no time on Tesla’s (TSLA) earnings call late Tuesday acknowledging the EV maker’s biggest roadblock to sunnier financial days. That is his outsized time being spent at President Trump’s controversial DOGE master. And he finally clearly articulated what must be done to jumpstart an automaker that saw sales and profits fall off a cliff in the first quarter. “Starting early next month, in May, my time allocation to DOGE will drop considerably," Musk said on the call. The path to renewed sales and profit growth won’t be easy, however. The Tesla brand will likely continue to feel blowback from Musk’s outspokenness on government policies. At the same time, tariff policy stands to hammer margins given Tesla’s exposure to solar panels from China and autos being made outside the US. The uncertainty on how quickly Musk can fix Tesla is something execs pointed to on the earnings release — Tesla yanked its 2025 financial guidance, promising to revisit it when second quarter results hit.
