It's Benzinga bringing Wall Street to Main Street
Investor Gary Black of Future Fund LLC outlined four potential paths for Tesla to recover from
its recent stock decline in a post on Exxon Thursday, according to Benzinga. Black said
Tesla has underperformed in 2026, falling 12% year-to-date compared with a 2% slide in the
Nasdaq 100, even as progress continues in self-driving technology. He said the narrative
that only Tesla can achieve generalized unsupervised autonomy has weakened as competitors advance
The investor said Tesla could benefit from a broad brand awareness campaign
to promote its autonomous driving capabilities and address gaps in its marketing approach
The investor said Tesla should remove safety monitors from its robot axis to address skepticism
about whether it has achieved unsupervised self-driving. Shares fell 2.17% to $397.21 at the close
and dropped to $388.90 after hours. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com
