Tesla has reported significant challenges in its recent quarterly results, including poor sales and revenue performance, leading to a substantial loss of $330 billion in market value since the start of the year. Despite these setbacks, the electric vehicle giant is experiencing a paradoxical surge in its stock. In response to the declining market and increased competition from other electric vehicle makers, Tesla, under CEO Elon Musk's direction, has announced layoffs affecting approximately 3,300 jobs in California and 693 jobs in Nevada, including a 10% workforce cut with 64 layoffs at the Burbank facility. The company has also been forced to cut prices among its electric car models.
