                    • Tesla Inc. surged 8.2% to $305.30 after the electric vehicle maker reported second-quarter 2025 results.

                      The company's revenues are likely to be lower in the third quarter as the government's subsidies to purchase new electric vehicles expire, and the new tax and spend bill eliminates the fines for not meeting fuel economy targets. 

                      Tesla derives significant revenues from selling its regulatory credits to competitors, as other electric vehicle makers prefer to purchase credit instead of paying fines.

                      The new tax and spending bill eliminates the fines, essentially killing the regulatory credit marketplace operated by Tesla. 

                      In the second quarter, Tesla's total vehicle revenue fell 16%, while energy generation and storage revenue decreased 7%, but services and other revenue jumped by 17%.
