His full-year expectations for Tesla are in line with the market, but he pointed out that Model S/X sales are expected to decline.
He stated that Tesla's results, which fell short of market expectations, and its subsequent stock price decline in after-hours trading, were an expected negative market reaction, suggesting that the market may perceive Tesla's performance as "unsatisfactory."
