Tesla's (TSLA, Financial) stock took a sharp drop during Friday morning trading as investors rethinking their support after recent aggressive gains achieved after Trump's victory. The investors who expected extended benefits from CEO Elon Musk's association with former President Donald Trump now show Skepticism because of growing doubts about Tesla's fundamental car business.

The aftermath of the November 5 election results led to market jitters as the company showed declining business strength, especially in Europe and China. The initial stock price rise because of political expectations did not withstand the operational hurdles facing Tesla.

The initial boosts in sentiment due to predicted prolonged “Trump bump” effects failed to match up with Tesla's actual automotive segment performance according to market analysts. Investors have intensified their scrutiny because of unclear supply chain limitations and tough industry competition.

Market players now doubt whether Tesla's current positive trends will continue, thus triggering them to evaluate the company's future prospects. Members of the market retain a cautious approach because Tesla operates in a turbulent environment as it works to manage its foundational business operations.
