Tesla shares fall 1.3% to session low of $357.61 as Roadster excitement fades

The pullback suggests the Roadster narrative was doing more work in the share price than any change in Tesla's core auto or energy business, which is a familiar pattern for a stock that trades heavily on product announcements rather than near-term fundamentals. What matters is whether the Roadster remains a sentiment driver at all, or whether attention rotates back to delivery and margin trends that actually move earnings. The open question is how much of the recent enthusiasm was positioning around the vehicle versus durable demand for the story.
