Tesla stock rises after CPI print; Wolfe lays out robotaxi milestones investors want next

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 09:33 EST — Regular session Tesla shares climbed early Tuesday, buoyed by a steadier mood among rate-sensitive growth stocks following the latest U.S. inflation figures and a new analyst note highlighting autonomy.
