Tesla Inc. shares fell on renewed questions over Elon Musk’s role with the federal government and uncertainty over the company’s plans to introduce a lower-cost electric vehicle.

Tesla reported a first-quarter earnings miss after Tuesday's closing bell, and MarketWatch broke down the results and followed along the post-earnings call. The miss seemed irrelevant for the stock, which rallied nearly 5% as investors cheered news that Chief Executive Elon Musk is expecting to spend more time at the EV maker and less time on DOGE starting next month.

Tesla Inc. investors reeling from one of the stock’s worst-ever quarters are once again looking for Elon Musk to inject excitement back into the company when it reports results Tuesday, as profits slip and the much-awaited debut of a self-driving car remains months away.
