Tesla shares fell sharply after Elon Musk announced a new political party, intensifying his feud with Donald Trump over a controversial spending bill passed by Congress.
Tesla’s stock dropped significantly on Monday following CEO Elon Musk’s announcement that he will form a new political party, further escalating his ongoing dispute with former President Donald Trump.
As of 1500 GMT, Tesla shares were down about 7.3%, trading at $292.22, pushing the electric vehicle maker’s market capitalisation to $921.7 billion. The decline continues a downward trend, with the company’s stock falling nearly 20% over the past month.
The political turmoil stems from what Musk calls the “Big Beautiful bill,” a sweeping Republican-backed spending measure recently passed by Congress. Musk has been a vocal critic of the bill, particularly provisions he claims harm the EV industry. He previously pledged to launch a political movement if the legislation was approved.
On Saturday, Musk formally unveiled the “America Party,” which he says will target “just 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts” in upcoming elections.
In response, Trump dismissed the move as “ridiculous” and warned that Musk could face deportation. "We’ll have to take a look,” Trump said when asked about the possibility of deporting Musk, who was born in South Africa.
The relationship between Musk and Trump—once friendly and cooperative—has deteriorated since late May, with public clashes and personal attacks marking the latest phase of their feud.
