Tesla Stock Plummets: TSLA Shares Dive Over 6% in Today’s Trading
NEW YORK, USA – Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) experienced a significant downturn in its stock price during trading hours today. Shares of the electric vehicle giant tumbled sharply, catching the attention of investors across the United States.
As of the latest update captured at 19:38 GMT+5:30, Tesla stock was trading at 18.33, representing a -6.73% decline for the day. The intraday chart clearly shows a steep fall, contrasting sharply with its previous closing price of $272.20.
This daily volatility stands out, especially when viewed against some of its recent performance metrics. While today’s session saw a significant loss (shown as -6.45% over the full 1-day period view), the stock had posted gains over the past month (+13.03%) and six months (+15.68%).
However, the sharp decline today adds to the negative performance year-to-date, which stood at -34.72% according to the provided data. Despite the recent pullback and year-to-date struggles, the stock still shows a positive gain of +47.16% over the trailing one-year period.
The heavy sell-off pushed Tesla’s share price well below the $260 and $255 marks, reflecting considerable downward pressure in today’s market activity on the Nasdaq exchange.
