Tesla: sales down for two years, European rebound in October
Tesla is seeking to end two years of declining sales, banking on the momentum of the European market. In October, its registrations rose in several European markets, notably Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Italy and Spain, extending a regional recovery. This momentum is however curbed by competitive pressure in China, where Chinese rivals are gaining ground. In the United States, the stock fell then rebounded with European registrations, before dropping after the midterm elections, interpreted as a threat to Elon Musk's activities.
