    - Tesla (TSLA) shares fell on Friday after starting the week on the upswing. One of Wall Street’s most bearish Tesla analysts further reduced estimates for the company’s earnings, citing the magnitude of car-buyer backlash against Elon Musk. Tesla’s first-quarter vehicle deliveries were far below even JPMorgan Chase & Co. analyst Ryan Brinkman’s pessimistic estimate, “confirming the unprecedented brand damage we had earlier feared,” he said in a report Friday. The EV maker also saw a key executive leave. David Lau, Tesla's vice president of software engineering, has told people at the company that he is stepping down, according to people familiar with the matter. Lau, one of the few executives to promote the automaker’s products alongside Elon Musk, has been at Tesla for almost 13 years and has held the vice president title since 2017. His team is responsible for the software in Tesla’s vehicles — overseeing infotainment and information security to over-the-air software updates — as well as cloud services and manufacturing systems.

    - Shares in companies that have large manufacturing operations in Vietnam, including Nike (NKE) and Lululemon Athletica (LULU) soared Friday after President Donald Trump said Vietnam was willing to eliminate tariffs to avoid new US levies. Nike shares erased an earlier loss to gain 3%. Apparel and shoemakers’ shares tumbled Thursday after the president unveiled a 46% levy on the Southeast Asian nation, where several had shifted manufacturing in recent years after Trump hit China with tariffs during his first term.

    - Shares of big US banks plummeted, notching their biggest two-day drop since March 2020, after China escalated its trade war with the US.Some of Wall Street’s top lenders, Morgan Stanley (MS), Goldman Sachs (GS) and Citigroup (C) all closed more than 7% lower after China retaliated against President Donald Trump’s tariffs with a 34% levy on US goods. The KBW Bank Index tallied a roughly 16% drop over Thursday and Friday, the gauge’s worst two-session plunge since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. Shares of JPMorgan Chase (JPM), which traded ex-dividend on Friday, erased some $51 billion from its market capitalization. Regional lenders also took a hit with the KBW Regional Banking Index slumping 3.7%, to close at the lowest level since July 9.

    -Tesla (TSLA) shares drop. Tesla's first-quarter vehicle deliveries were far below estimates, confirming "unprecedented brand damage" due to car-buyer backlash against Elon Musk. Tesla's sales plummeted 62% last quarter in Germany, and its stock has slumped since hitting a record high on December 17.
    -Nvidia (NVDA) shares slump after Thursday’s slump wiped $1.4 trillion in market capitalisation from the Nasdaq 100 Stock Index.

    -Wayfair (W US) shares slide after Citi downgraded the online furniture retailer to neutral from buy. The broker said President Donald Trump’s tariff announcement “created significant exposure” to the supplier base of Wayfair, and sees eBay as better positioned.
