Elon Musk Steps Back From DOGE To Refocus On Struggling Tesla
Elon Musk announced plans to reduce his involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) starting in May, aiming to concentrate more on Tesla amid declining profits and investor concerns.
Tesla reported a 71% drop in first-quarter profits and a 13% decline in vehicle deliveries, attributing part of the downturn to backlash over Elon Musk’s political affiliations and leadership role in DOGE. Investors have urged Elon Musk to prioritize Tesla, citing distractions from his political engagements.
Musk acknowledged the challenges of balancing multiple roles and emphasized the need to address Tesla’s pressing issues, including sales slumps and brand perception, during an earnings call, per multiple outlets.
