Tesla stock fell Monday, just ahead of key sales data due later this week. Shares of the electric vehicle maker were down 6.8% at $245.55 in early trading. The market certainly isn’t helping. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average were down 1.

Shares of mega-cap tech leaders tumbled Wednesday afternoon after a surprise announcement of auto tariffs from the White House.

Tesla stock and business has struggled recently, and Trump's tariff threat may not be a huge lift. However, there is a path back to its market-beating ways.
