Tesla share price erodes investor wealth worth $68 billion as Elon Musk launches his own ‘American Party'
Tesla Inc. shares tumbled 6.8% on Monday (July 7), erasing more than $68 billion in market cap, after CEO Elon Musk revealed plans to launch a new political party — the 'America Party.' The move, announced over the weekend, reignited a public feud between Musk and former ally President Donald Trump, escalating investor concerns about the company's future direction. The steep drop marks one of the worst single-day performances for Tesla this year and comes amid growing concerns that Musk's political ambitions could further distract from his role as chief executive of the electric vehicle giant. Tesla's stock slide wiped out $15.3 billion from Musk's net worth, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. The fall marked the largest since Musk's earlier clash with Trump in June, when their spat over a Republican tax bill erased $150 billion from Tesla's market value in a single day. Trump lashed out at Musk's political ambitions, calling the idea of the 'America Party' 'ridiculous.' He also threatened to cut off federal subsidies to Musk's companies, deepening fears among investors. The market turmoil wasn't limited to Tesla. Wall Street saw widespread losses as the White House issued tariff notices to key allies, including Japan and South Korea, threatening import duties of up to 40% starting August 1. The S&P 500 dropped 0.8% — its biggest loss since mid-June — while the Dow fell 422 points (0.9%) and the Nasdaq slid 0.9%.

"Investors were getting to that period of ebullience in markets and we're taking a little step back from that."But investors likely have some hopes the announcements are not permanent, she said: "That's the pattern we've been in, announcing punitive tariffs and then dialing that back a little bit.

Tariff headlines and moving deadlines
(The opinions expressed here are those of the author, a columnist for Reuters.) Making sense of the forces driving global markets By Alden Bentley, Editor in Charge, Americas Finance and Markets Jamie is enjoying some well-deserved time off, but the Reuters markets team will still keep you up to date on what moved markets today and we'll take a close look at how markets are digesting the latest U.S. tariff headlines and how they reacted to Tesla CEO Elon Musk's move to reclaim political influence. I'd love to hear from you so please feel free to reach out at * US stocks fell on nervousness about Wednesday's tariff deadline, while Tesla tumbled after Elon Musk unveiled a new political party * Treasury yields rose as trade talks dragged on and investors prepared for auctions this week * Crude oil prices rose despite OPEC plan to increase supply in August * Gold weakened on the back of the firmer dollar US signals trade announcements imminent as deadline looms Tesla slides as Musk's 'America Party' heightens investor worries Tesla short sellers set to pocket about $1.4 billion in profits after stock slump Trump says will impose 25% tariffs on Japan, South Korea Tariff headlines and moving deadlines Wall Street paused its bull run to start Monday on the back foot bracing for a barrage of tariff headlines before Wednesday, which U.S. President Donald Trump set as the expiration of a postponement he declared in the wake of the April 2 "Liberation Day" meltdown. While last week's record highs for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq suggest that markets are learning to take the White House's fluid trade tactics in stride, they did pull back even more at midday after Trump said that from August 1 he will impose 25% tariffs on Japan and South Korea, two of the U.S.'s most stalwart trade allies who have yet to reach trade deals with Trump. Trump has promised to notify countries that haven't reached deals by the July 9 deadline of what their new tariffs will be as of August 1, which now becomes the next big calendar notation for investors. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said more trade announcements were likely by Wednesday. Monday's pullback aside, the stock market has more than recovered from the April panic, riding out numerous other potential major risks, from Trump's threats to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, to the U.S. bombing of Iran nuclear sites to last week's passage of the "Big Beautiful Bill" that economists predict will add trillions to the U.S. debt, any tariff revenue notwithstanding. Only the dollar remains deep underwater. Although it bounced nicely on Monday, it is off 7% against the euro since April 2, and the broader dollar index is down about 6%, while the S&P 500 is up 9.5%. The 10-year Treasury note's benchmark yield is only about 20 basis points higher than its April 2 close, having weathered global concern that the U.S. was no longer a safe place to be invested. Speaking of the "big beautiful" tax bill, Tesla CEO and former-Trump-ally- turned enemy Elon Musk declared it would bankrupt America and announced the formation of a third U.S. political party, the America Party. Investors immediately tanked Tesla shares, which also weighed on Wall Street, recalling how his stint running Trump's Department of Government Efficiency was a costly distraction from the business of making electric vehicles and rockets.
