The phrase keeps showing up. Musk has described a future of “sustainable abundance” driven by AI and robotics in multiple public appearances over the past year, including at Tesla’s November 2025 shareholder meeting.

The stock popped, the headlines cheered, and then reality showed up in the form of a 31% Q4 delivery plunge. Today’s Q4 report reads differently. Not because the backward-looking numbers are pretty, but because the forward-looking guidance just…

On Tuesday, Congress finally moved, Bloomberg reports. The House Committee on Energy and Commerce forwarded the Securing Accessible Functional Emergency Exit Act, or SAFE Exit Act, to the…
Morgan Stanley just did what Tesla hasn’t: put a real number on the 100-gigawatt solar bet we warned readers about four days ago. The answer is somewhere between $30 billion and $70 billion. For context, Tesla’s entire capital expenditure budget this year is already north of $20 billion before a single solar cell rolls off…
