Tesla stock slides after Q4 deliveries report as BYD overtakes — what’s next for TSLA

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 09:40 ET — Market closed Tesla shares ended Friday, Jan. 2, down 2.6% at $438.07, after trading between $435.33 and $462.42 on heavy volume.

Deliveries are the number of vehicles handed over to customers, often used as a proxy for sales. The backdrop is getting tougher as incentives roll off and rivals push more models into key markets. China’s BYD said it sold 2.26 million battery-electric vehicles in 2025, overtaking Tesla for the year,

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 09:34 ET — Market closed Apple Inc shares ended Friday down 0.3% at $271.01, starting 2026 on a softer note after a broker reset expectations on valuation even as broader U.S. stocks eked out gains.

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 09:35 ET — Market closed Amazon.com, Inc. shares fell 1.9% on Friday to close at $226.50, slipping as investors opened 2026 with a mixed appetite for mega-cap tech.
