Why It’s Important: Tesla’s fundamental woes are far from over, as analysts expect protracted weakness amid demand issues in China and CEO Elon Musk’s Twitter focus. Musk, however, is hopeful about the value the stock brings to the table in the long run and has asked employees and his Twitter followers not to focus on the “stock market craziness.”

More clarity on the near-term outlook will emerge when the company reports its fourth-quarter deliveries early next week.

Tesla closed Friday’s session up 1.12% at $123.18, according to Benzinga Pro data.
