Deep Dive: Tesla Sales Slow

3 min Transcript
View

Tesla reported sales that slowed in the most recent quarter. But, shares climbed after the decline was less drastic than analysts feared.   

The company delivered 384,122 vehicles during the last three months, down 13% from a year earlier. While that leaves Tesla in a deep hole to dig out from to avoid another annual drop, some investors were braced for a more than 20% plunge.   

For more on the data, Paul Sweeney and Norah Mulinda speak with Pierre Ferragu, Head of Global Technology Infrastructure at New Street Research.

Synopsys Jumps, Meta's strong labor productivity, Datadog will enter S&P 500

  • The US lifted export license requirements for chip design software sales in China, clearing the way for the companies to resume services. Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Niraj Patel and Maria Beltran write that both Synopsys and Cadence are “likely to resume electronic design automation (EDA) sales to China after Siemens said it had been informed of the removal of some US export restrictions." Chinese customers represent 14% of sales for Synopsys

 

  • Meta raised to hold from underperform at Needham, with analysts citing “channel checks driving upside to our estimates” and the company’s “strong labor productivity metrics." Labor productivity is driven by a model that is “globally scaled, doesn’t pay for content, is software only, ‘free-rides’ on mobile devices and has closed loop attribution for advertisers”

 

  • Cloud monitoring and analytics company Datadog (DD)G) had its highest intraday level since February, after the software solutions company was added to the S&P 500 index effective prior to the opening of trading on July 9, replacing Juniper Networks.

- Tesla (TSLA) shares rallied today after the carmaker posted a less drastic decline in vehicle sales than the most pessimistic analysts feared.The company delivered 384,122 vehicles during the last three months, down 13% from a year earlier. While that leaves Tesla in a deep hole to dig out from to avoid another annual drop, some investors were braced for a more than 20% plunge. The sales figures run counter to Elon Musk’s claim in mid-May that Tesla’s car business had recovered from an early-year slump driven in part by blowback over his work in the Trump administration. Sales could be further challenged toward the end of this year if Congress passes the president’s multitrillion-dollar spending bill that would eliminate tax credits for EV purchases.

- Tesla (TSLA) shares fell today as investors expect vehicle deliveries to decline for the second consecutive quarter. CEO Elon Musk has assumed oversight of Tesla's sales in Europe and the US following the departure of longtime deputy Omead Afshar, people familiar with the matter said. Afshar was responsible for Tesla’s sales and manufacturing operations in North America and Europe before leaving the EV maker late last month. Following his exit, Musk and Tom Zhu, a senior vice president, are divvying up reporting lines as Tesla looks to recover from another quarter of declining vehicle deliveries. Tesla likely delivered around 389,400 vehicles in the three months that ended in June, according to analysts’ estimates compiled by Bloomberg. That would be down roughly 12% from a year earlier, following a 13% drop in the first quarter.

- Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) shares were lower after Advance/Newhouse sold 100 million shares for about $1.1 billion via a block trade, according to a recent filing.

- Constellation Brands (STZ) reported earnings and profit trailed expectations in the first quarter due to weaker consumer demand for alcoholic beverages and higher costs from aluminum tariffs .Earnings excluding some items were $3.22 a share in the period, missing the average analyst estimate by 10 cents. The company’s beer margins were hit by President Donald Trump’s 25% tariff on imported aluminum cans — a key packaging material for its Mexican-made beers such as Modelo and Corona.Constellation is navigating multiple headwinds including tariffs, muted beer sales, and more drinkers cutting back on alcohol and turning to alternatives such as cannabis. The company has also cited a pullback among Hispanic consumers — who make up more than half of Modelo drinkers — amid concerns about inflation, immigration and job security.

That revenue is expected to start flowing in the fiscal year 2028, Oracle disclosed in a regulatory filing Monday, without naming the customer.“ Oracle is off to a strong start” in its fiscal year 2026, Chief Executive Officer Safra Catz said in the filing. The company has signed “multiple large cloud services agreements,” she said, adding that revenue from Oracle’s namesake database that runs on other clouds continues to grow more than 100%.The $30-billion deal ranks among the largest cloud contracts on record. That revenue alone would represent nearly three times the size of Oracle’s current infrastructure business, which totaled $10.3 billion over the past four quarters. A major cloud contract awarded in 2022 from the US Defense Department, that runs through 2028 and could be worth as much as $9 billion, is split among four companies, including Oracle.

Deep Dive: Carnival Earnings Lift Cruise Stocks

4 min Transcript
View

Carnival Corp. shares jumped after it raised its full-year profit outlook as cruise demand has shrugged off the volatile economic and geopolitical backdrop.   

Its stock surged, while peers Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings and Viking Holdings Ltd. also rose.   

The industry appears to be rebounding from earlier worries that demand was softening for vacations. Cruise businesses are also insulated during downturns by customers increasingly booking further in advance, drawn to tickets that offer significant discounts relative to other travel options.   

Tim Stenovec and Carol Massar discuss the news with Bloomberg Intelligence Analyst Brian Egger.

- Nvidia (NVDA) shares continues its rally that started yesterday when it rose to an all-time high. Recent earnings from Nvidia were a notable catalyst for bulls, as the report showed robust growth and pointed to more strength ahead despite the impact of restrictions on the sales of advanced semiconductors in China. Prints from Microsoft Corp., Meta Platforms Inc., Alphabet Inc., and Amazon.com Inc. — which together make up more than 40% of Nvidia’s revenue, per supply chain data compiled by Bloomberg — further underlined how the company’s biggest customers continue to spend aggressively building out their AI infrastructure.

- Circle (CRCL) shares rose after dropping 25% just two days ago as more players begin to enter the stablecoin industry since the Senate passed new legislation.

- Micron (MU) shares slid as invested digested its earnings results from yesterday after the closing bell. The top-performing chipmaker on Wall Street this year, delivered an outlook that wasn’t quite rosy enough to keep its 2025 rally going. Though the company posted third-quarter results and a fourth-quarter forecast that exceeded estimates, the stock began sliding Wednesday in late trading after a conference call with executives and continued to decline Thursday. A key focus was high-bandwidth memory, a component used in artificial intelligence computing. The technology is fueling a sales surge at Micron, but the company didn’t predict the kind of runaway growth that some investors were looking for.

- Coinbase (COIN) shares are on track for their first record in more than three years, capping off a rally fueled by growing acceptance of the cryptocurrency industry on Wall Street and in Washington. The crypto-exchange operator’s stock was up 2.7% on Thursday, trading at $365.05 — higher than the peak close of $357.39 in November 2021, just months after the company went public through a direct listing. Coinbase shares have surged more than 1,000% from a record low in late 2022, which came as the collapse of FTX raised questions about the future of digital assets. The stock’s comeback occurred as cryptocurrency prices rebounded and the industry won powerful new allies, including US President Donald Trump.

- Meta Platforms (META) shares are up. The company is in advanced talks to acquire PlayAI, a small startup using artificial intelligence to replicate voices, part of the social media company’s push to nab top talent and catch up in the AI race. Meta is expected to acquire the Palo Alto, California-based startup’s technology and some of its employees, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be named sharing private information. The deal is not yet finalized and could still change, the people said. Financial terms under discussion could not be learned.
