Tesla Reports Higher Profits, Topping Estimates
Shareholders are pressing for updates on Optimus and self-driving as Tesla faces a 50,000-vehicle production gap and a 38% storage decline.

- Despite CEO Elon Musk pushing the narrative that Tesla is an "AI and robotics company," the automotive business still drives the vast majority of financial performance.
