Tesla then posted over a dozen jobs in the company's autopilot division in late May. Now, however, Tesla appears to have expanded its hiring to cover a variety of roles, with over 60 positions in the US and Canada advertised on the company's website. Advertisement"It sounds like an existing Tesla team from a different department has been inserted to manage the charging division," said Pinter, who added that it was unclear if this move was temporary or permanent. Tesla also lists positions for its internship programs, with roles in vehicle servicing and mechanical design, for example, advertised for the summer and fall of 2024.

Nvidia announced a 10-for-1 forward stock split in its fiscal first-quarter earnings report on Wednesday.

Nvidia said the stock split will make ownership "more accessible to employees and investors," the release said. Nvidia shares closed on Wednesday at $949.50. Alphabet , Amazon and Tesla all orchestrated stock splits in 2022.

Read previewChevrolet is just getting started on its takeover of the electric car market, says Steve Majoros, the brand's chief marketing officer. It's not exactly a great time to put more electric vehicles on sale. But the tides finally are turning in Chevrolet's favor, Majoros said, as EV shoppers gravitate to more practical options and legacy brands. Recent studies on a new cohort of electric car shoppers show that they are more inclined to consider purchasing an electric car from a legacy brand. After years of a virtual monopoly on the EV market, shoppers are growing tired of Tesla and looking for fresher options.

Former Tesla executive Drew Baglino, who announced his resignation earlier this month, sold shares in the electric vehicle company worth around $181.5 million, according to a filing on Thursday with the SEC. Baglino, who joined Tesla in 2006, is selling about 1.14 million of his shares, the filing said, listing an "approximate date of sale" of April 25, and describing it as an exercise of stock options. Tesla announced on April 15 that it's laying off 10% of its global workforce, following a drop in first-quarter deliveries and a steep slide in the stock price. Baglino announced his departure in a statement posted to X. Prior to the latest sale, Baglino had unloaded about $4 million worth of shares in two transactions this year — one in late February and the other in early April, filings show.

Tesla stock surged as much as 14% on Wednesday after the company reported 1st-quarter earnings. While the company badly missed analyst estimates, Elon Musk did commit to an affordable car. "We're updating our future vehicle lineup to accelerate the launch of our low-cost vehicles," Tesla said. So, I mean, if somebody doesn't believe Tesla is going to solve autonomy, I think they should not be an investor in the company," Musk said. While Ives remained bullish on Tesla stock, he did lower his price target to $275 from $300.

The electric car revolution is on track, says IEA

“The continued momentum behind electric cars is clear in our data, although it is stronger in some markets than others,” IEA executive director Fatih Birol said in a statement. Last year, global EV sales grew 35% to almost 14 million. “Intensifying market competition and improving battery technologies are expected to reduce (EV) prices in the coming years,” the IEA said. “Growing electric car exports from Chinese automakers, which accounted for more than half of all electric car sales in 2023, could add to downward pressure on purchase prices,” it added. By 2030, almost one in three cars on the roads in China is set to be electric, according to the IEA.

Tesla said Wednesday it will ask shareholders to reinstate CEO Elon Musk's $56 billion pay package, which a Delaware judge voided earlier this year after ruling that the record-setting compensation deal was "deeply flawed." Tesla said the court decision created a "fundamental problem for the company." Tesla has not hired Innisfree since 2018, when it first asked shareholders to vote on Musk's pay package. Musk's pay package was invalidated after a shareholder won a lawsuit against the company earlier this year. The company also noted that "dozens of institutional stockholders" have told Tesla that they disagree with the Tornetta decision.
