Tesla (TSLA) shares rebounded from early losses Tuesday after CEO 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Elon Musk said that he wants 25% voting control of the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:electric vehicle (EV) maker before advancing Tesla's position in 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:artificial intelligence (AI).

Musk said he is "uncomfortable growing Tesla to be a leader in AI & robotics without having ~25% voting control. Enough to be influential, but not so much that I can’t be overturned" in a post on X (formerly Twitter), which Musk owns.

He added that "unless that is the case, I would prefer to build products outside of Tesla."

In July of 2023, Musk launched xAI, an AI-focused company separate from Tesla and X. The AI company said it “will work closely” with X and Tesla꧙.

Wedbush analysts said they view Tesla "as a disruptive tech leader and if Musk ultimately went down the path to create his own company (separate from Tesla) for his next generation AI projects this would clearly be a big negative for the Tesla story," adding that "Musk having a back and forth about such an important issue over X is far from ideal for the investment community around Tesla."

However, the analysts said that although Musk only owns about 13% of Tesla currently, they anticipate "the Board and Musk will be able to resolve this issue over the next 3-6 months" and reiterated their "outperform" rating and $250 price target.

Tesla shares were up 1% at $220.97 as of about 11:45 a.m. ET Tuesday, after dropping as low as $212.18 early in the session. The stock has gained 68% over the past year.
