Q2 was a rollercoaster: markets flirted with bear territory in April, then soared to record highs by June. AI mania and resilient earnings fueled the rebound, but trade wars and inflation fears loom large. Q3 could be the hangover after the party.

🧨The Outrage Meter
Tesla's Q2 has been a full-blown meme loop. Deliveries dropped 13.5% year-over-year, missing the mark, yet the stock popped anyway-because why not. Elon teased cheaper models (again), reignited his feud with Trump over subsidy cuts, and still managed to keep traders hopeful. At this point, "soon" might be Tesla's most valuable asset.
🤔What Do You Think?
Q2 earnings are coming in hot - travel, chips, and SaaS are crushing it. So how long can this earnings party last? |
