Tesla shares soared nearly 23% after President Trump announced a 90-day pause on tariffs for over 75 nation, excluding China, boosting investor confidence and lifting the EV giant’s market value to $852.9 billion amid a volatile trading year.
Tesla shares soared by 22.69% on Wednesday, closing at $272.20, after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on newly imposed reciprocal tariffs for over 75 countries—excluding China. The electric vehicle giant’s market value climbed to $852.9 billion, marking a significant rebound following months of volatility.
