crow with knife

Crow with Knife ($CAW) is capturing attention as a multichain meme coin, particularly for its bridged presence across various ecosystems like Solana, Cronos, and Ethereum. The community is actively discussing its deflationary burn mechanism and organic growth, with many expressing bullish sentiment and drawing comparisons to other prominent meme tokens.

Sandisk Corp. engages in the development, manufacture, and provision of storage devices and solutions based on NAND flash technology. Its products include solid state drives, memory cards, and USB flash drives. The company was founded on February 5, 2024 and is headquartered in Milpitas, CA.

Sandisk Corp

SanDisk is trending due to heightened excitement surrounding AI infrastructure, particularly after NVIDIA's CEO highlighted severe memory bottlenecks and the potential for increased SSD demand. The community is sharply divided, with many celebrating a "generational wealth" opportunity from the "AI-fueled memory boom" while others vocally caution that the stock is "overvalued" and part of a speculative "pump and dump" in the memory and storage sector.

Enovix Corp. engages in the design and development of silicon-anode lithium-ion batteries. The firm's proprietary 3D cell architecture increases energy density and maintains a high cycle life. It is also developing its 3D cell technology and production process for the electric vehicle and energy storage markets to help enable utilization of renewable energy.

Enovix is trending as community discussion intensifies around a potential showcase of its advanced batteries in smart eyewear at CES 2026 through a collaboration with Jorjin Group. This comes alongside reports of a major electrolyte supply deal, which many interpret as a strong indicator of imminent production scale, despite lingering skepticism over past timeline shifts and ongoing validation testing of AI-1 battery samples by a lead smartphone OEM.

Dog (Bitcoin) is a fully decentralized memecoin on the Bitcoin blockchain, backed by a community dedicated to onboarding millions of people to Bitcoin.  Dog is secured by the Bitcoin blockchain and exists on Bitcoin L1, marking a significant innovation compared to Bitcoin with just BTC. Dog is a Bitcoin Runes token with a minimal on-chain footprint, native to Bitcoin, and stored in UTXOs, just like Bitcoin.   What is the project about?  Dog does not do any paid promotion and is fully decentralized just like Bitcoin. Every influencer who chooses to post about Dog either received the airdrop or bought on secondary. Dog leverages the CC0 license to ensure that Dog is not owned by any single entity but rather by everyone. This had lead to the "DOG Army" independently creating art, apps, lotteries, plushies, websites, podcast, magazines, X account, IRL meetups, clothing lines, PFP collections, Telegram groups, and TikTok/Instagram about Dog.  What makes your project unique?  Dog was airdropped in the fairest memecoin launch ever. In early 2024, the Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem came together in a full volunteer initiative that rewarded early adopters of the Ordinals Protocol. There was no team allocation, and 100% of the supply was airdropped for free. The airdrop algorithm favored neither whales nor influencers; it was determined by the community and made open-source for maximum transparency.

Dog (Bitcoin)

DOG CRYPTO is actively trending as a Bitcoin-native meme asset, leveraging its robust foundation on the Bitcoin network to capture community interest. The "DOG Army" strongly emphasizes its fair launch and decentralized nature, with ongoing discussions about its potential to surpass established meme coins. Many in the community view current market movements as accumulation opportunities, reinforcing their long-term conviction in this unique asset.

One Chinese EV Stock Surged 80% In 2025 – But Two Others Told Very Different Stories

XPeng was the top performer in 2025, with gains of around 80%, while Li Auto’s stock declined 28% YTD.

XPeng, Nio, Li Auto Stocks Diverge Sharply In 2025: Here’s What Investors Are Watching Next

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Deliveries are poised to fall for a second straight year and 2026 growth expectations diverge sharply between Wall Street and more cautious investors.</li><li>The investment debate hinges on non-auto upside, with bulls betting on FSD, robotaxis, and Optimus.</li><li>But skeptics argue that weak auto performance limits funding and upside for these initiatives.</li></ul>Tesla, Inc.’s (TSLA) stock is on track to outperform the consumer discretionary sector this year, helped in part by the robotaxi chatter that picked up pace in the&nbsp;last few months of the year,&nbsp;even as the flagship electric vehicle (EV) business&nbsp;sagged.Negative headlines surrounding Tesla’s EV business continue to emerge. Earlier this week, Bloomberg&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-29/tesla-cybertruck-flop-proves-costly-for-south-korean-supplier">reported</a> that Tesla’s contract value with South Korean supplier L&amp;F Co. has been slashed by 99%.&nbsp;<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/TSLA_Vs_XLY_Vs_SPY_png_f9bd0033f8.webp" alt="TSLA Vs XLY Vs SPY.png">Source: Koyfin<h2 class="st-heading-2">Maturing Automotive Business?</h2>Automotive deliveries growth hasn’t really picked up after the spurt seen in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. After peaking at 83% in the second quarter of 2023, year-over-year sales growth either slowed or turned negative. The third quarter of 2025 marked a recovery after two consecutive quarters of decline; however, the 7.4% growth rate remained well below the nearly 122% surge recorded in the second quarter of 2021, when Model Y sales soared following its 2020 launch.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_Delivery_Growth_Loses_Momentum_png_6657350bc1.webp" alt="Tesla_Delivery_Growth_Loses_Momentum.png">Source: Fiscal.aiTesla for the first time publicly&nbsp;shared the consensus delivery forecast for the fourth quarter, ahead&nbsp;of the formal release scheduled for Jan. 2. The company-compiled consensus analyst forecast for the quarter is 422,850. If the estimate proves accurate, the company is on track to report annual deliveries of 1.641 million, down 8.3% from 1.79 million in 2024. Incidentally, it would also mark the second straight year of sales decline.The automotive segment, which includes vehicle sales, regulatory credits, and leasing revenue, still accounts for a lion’s share of Tesla's revenue.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:600/371;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_s_Q3_25_Revenue_Break_down_png_39c10d5776.webp" alt="Tesla's Q3'25 Revenue Break-down.png" width="600" height="371"></figure>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Chart generated using company data&nbsp;The outlook isn’t very optimistic either. While the consensus view shared by Tesla shows that the company might return to growth in 2026, which, though, is likely to be anemic (6.7%), Deepwater Asset Management’s Gene Munster predicts a big miss. In his 2026 predictions, the fund manager said he expects 2026 sales to be flat to up 5% as opposed to Wall Street’s consensus forecast for 16% delivery growth.If the auto business continues to be weak, one of the worst hit could be Musk himself. His $1 trillion pay package, which the Delaware Supreme Court recently cleared, is predicated on the company’s market cap hitting $8.5 trillion, while also meeting the following operational performance:-achieving up to $400 billion in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)-delivering 20 million cars cumulatively-selling 1 million robots-selling 10 million FSD subscriptions- operating 1 million robotaxis<h2 class="st-heading-2">Non-Autos To Drive Investment Case?</h2>Munster, though downbeat on the core auto business, says his investment case doesn’t change, and it is still predicated on full self-driving software, robotaxis, and Optimusm humanoid robots. He also opined that robotaxis without a safety driver will likely get regulatory clearance by the end of the year.&nbsp;Morgan Stanley’s Andrew Percoco, who downgraded Tesla to ‘Equal-Weight’ from ‘Overweight’ earlier this month, sees a challenging catalyst path over the next 12 months, presenting downside risk to consensus estimates. At the same time, the analyst believes the positive catalysts for its non-auto business are already reflected in the stock price. Emphasizing the importance of the auto business, the analyst said:<blockquote>“While it is well understood that Tesla is more than an auto manufacturer, we believe it will be increasingly challenging to support meaningful upside to Tesla shares barring an improvement, or at least stabilization, within its auto business, which is a key source of funding for its non-auto businesses.”</blockquote>Tesla bull Daniel Ives, however, sees 2026 as a “monster year” for Tesla as the autonomous and robotics chapter begins.&nbsp;<blockquote>“We expect in early 2026 an easing of the federal framework for autonomous vehicles, with more power going to the federal regulators, with states having less authority on the autonomous rules framework likely under an Executive Order.”</blockquote>The analyst expects Tesla to reach a $2 trillion market capitalization by 2026, with a bull-case scenario pointing to as much as $3 trillion by year-end.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Retail Traders &amp; Analysts Feel About TSLA</h2>Retail sentiment toward the Tesla stock was ‘bearish’ as of early Tuesday, tempering from the bullish mood seen three months ago, when it began gathering some momentum.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:720/443;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_30_at_5_24_45_AM_png_773bc87677.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-30 at 5.24.45 AM.png" width="720" height="443"></figure>&nbsp;According to Koyfin, the average analyst price target for Tesla’s stock is $399.15, implying more than 13% downside from current levels.

Tesla’s Core EV Business Is Feeling The Heat — What Its Automotive Segment Really Delivered In 2025

Tesla’s stock strength is decoupling from auto fundamentals, with the outperformance now hinging on robotaxis and AI optimism despite a maturing, slowing EV business.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Tesla’s roots in California, from Fremont manufacturing to headquarters, contrast with its current tensions amid Musk’s changed political ideology.</li><li>Wall Street analysts remain skeptical despite investors reposing faith in the stock.&nbsp;</li><li>The stock is on track to scale a fresh record in Wednesday’s session, possibly challenging the $500 psychological resistance.</li></ul>Tesla faces yet another headwind in California, a state that was once its home before Texas, but investors aren’t losing sleep. The EV company’s&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">stock</a> appears on track to extend its record run, having risen modestly in Wednesday's premarket trading.The Blue state&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/news-and-media/news-releases/dmv-finds-tesla-violated-california-state-law/">dropped</a> a bombshell on Tuesday. In a 2023 complaint filed by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), alleging false advertisements with respect to “autopilot” and “full self-driving (FSD) capability, the administrative law judge has found that the company’s use of these terms to describe its vehicles’ Advanced Driving Assistance Features (ADAS) is misleading and violates state law. Tesla now has 60 days to either appeal the decision or come into compliance, or face a 30-day suspension of its dealer license, implying it can’t sell its EVs in California for that period.Responding through its North America X handle, Tesla said:<blockquote>“This was a “consumer protection” order about the use of the term “Autopilot” in a case where not one single customer came forward to say there’s a problem.”</blockquote>The company also said sales in California will continue uninterrupted.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Driverless Drive Reignites Tesla Rally</h2>Tesla's California headwind concerns a technology core to its robotaxi ambitions that has fueled the stock’s record run in recent sessions. Earlier this week, a video shared on the X platform, owned by Musk, showed a Model Y driving around the streets of Austin with no driver or passengers, creating a flutter on social media.&nbsp;The stock jumped 3.6% to close at $475.31 on Monday and added 3.07% on Tuesday to hit a new peak of $489.88.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_1_year_stock_trajectory_png_7db265f260.webp" alt="Tesla 1-year stock trajectory.png">Source: Koyfin<h2 class="st-heading-2">Tesla’s Complicated Relationship With California</h2>Tesla and Musk, in particular, have had a&nbsp;chequered history in California. The company’s first EV manufacturing plant was established in Fremont, California, which it acquired from the GM/Toyota joint venture named “New United Motor Manufacturing” in 2010. This plant served as a manufacturing hub that produced the Model S, 3, X, and Y vehicles. The state also served as the company’s headquarters before it relocated to Austin, Texas, in 2021.&nbsp; Even after the move, Tesla established its engineering headquarters in Palo Alto, a tech hub, in early 2023.Tesla’s early days in California proved to be a strategic decision to capitalize on the state’s massive auto market. According to separate forecasts from the S&amp;P Global and the California New Car Dealers Association, new vehicle sales in California (based on registrations) are expected to be 1.79 million units in 2025, accounting for roughly 11% of the estimated total vehicle sales of 16.15 million units in the U.S.The incentive to focus on California was also due to the stricter zero-emission norms in place in the state, which envisaged a ban on new gas cars by 2035. Since then, they have been relaxed. In June, President Donald Trump signed a joint resolution to cancel the state’s EV mandate and similar norms adopted by 17 other states.But Musk’s bonhomie with California suffered a setback as the state became less business-friendly with its relatively high taxation, stringent regulations, and high housing costs. According to Intuit, California has the highest income tax rate among the states, at 13.3%, followed by Hawaii and New York. The state's corporate income tax rate of 8.84% is among the&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://stripe.com/resources/more/which-states-have-low-corporate-tax-rates">highest</a> in the country.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/top_marginal_state_individual_income_tax_rates_as_of_january_1_2025_png_dc0065fae4.webp" alt="top-marginal-state-individual-income-tax-rates-as-of-january-1-2025-.png">Source: Tax FoundationCalifornia is the most regulated state with 420,434 regulatory restrictions in 2023, according to a report released by the Mercatus Center of George Mason University in Aug. 2024.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_17_at_4_10_25_AM_png_464b6c3eda.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-17 at 4.10.25 AM.png">&nbsp;Source: Mercatus CenterMusk has had his run-ins with the state. When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, a year after the company launched its hugely successful Model Y vehicle, the state was among those that had imposed the most stringent restrictions. Tesla was asked to halt production at its Fremont facility in March 2020. Even as Alameda County, where the factory is located, continued stricter restrictions through May, Musk defied the orders and reopened the factory, and also filed a lawsuit against the county. Although the issue was resolved later, it served as a significant motivation for Musk to look elsewhere.&nbsp;The billionaire's relationship with the state’s Democratic Governor, Gavin Newsom, also soured as he shifted his political allegiance to the Republican Party. Coming down hard on the governor and the state, Musk said in a X post last year:<blockquote>“The only thing stopping the California government and overbearing regulatory agencies from being even worse is that people and companies can move out of state.”</blockquote>The state machinery also turned&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/10/10/california-reject-musk-spacex-00183371">hostile</a> toward Musk and his business ventures, including limiting SpaceX’s rocket launches from Vandenberg Air Force Base in Santa Barbara County.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Many EVs Does Tesla Sell in California?</h2>Tesla registrations in the state have declined year over year (YoY) for eight straight quarters. Citing data from Experian and the CNCDA, Tesla registrations totaled 52,114 in the third quarter of 2025, a 9.6% YoY drop. The 52,114 number made up 10.5% of the company’s total EV sales in the U.S. in Q3.The sales were down for seven straight quarters, ahead of the Q3 drop. The only consolation is the sequential increase and a more modest YoY decline.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_12_17_at_4_47_53_AM_png_8860440f1e.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-17 at 4.47.53 AM.png">Source: CNCDA via Reuters<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Retail Feels About Tesla Stock</h2>Sentiment toward Tesla among Stocktwits users has improved to ‘extremely bullish’ as of early Wednesday,&nbsp;even as the stock trades near all-time highs, despite shaky fundamentals.

Tesla’s War With California Is Getting Ugly — Yet Investors Can’t Quit The Robotaxi Story

Tesla’s long-simmering tensions with California have flared again after state regulators ruled its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving marketing misleading, threatening sales restrictions.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Deliveries remain below the level needed to revive revenue, and margins have slid from nearly 17% to under 5%.</li><li>Even longtime bulls are cautious as Tesla trades at 220× forward earnings and well above long-range EBITDA estimates.</li><li>Investor hopes now rest on robotaxi progress, but retail sentiment is muted and engagement remains low. &nbsp;</li></ul>Tesla entered the year with all the makings of a blockbuster comeback. After Donald Trump's election win in 2024, investors were convinced the EV giant would ride a wave of political tailwinds — helped, in no small part, by the extraordinary support CEO Elon Musk had thrown behind the Republican ticket. But things did not go as smoothly as expected.Musk spent an estimated $288 million to help elect Trump and other GOP candidates, according to a Washington Post analysis, making him the largest individual donor of the entire 2024 cycle. Confidence in Tesla soared.But that optimism evaporated almost as quickly as it formed. Soon after the election, Musk was pulled into the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a high-profile initiative aimed at slashing federal waste. For Tesla shareholders, the optics were alarming: Musk was spending long stretches in Washington rather than at the company's Austin headquarters, all while his increasingly contentious political commentary — including vocal support for far-right European parties — began weighing heavily on Tesla's global brand.Sales slid. Boycotts intensified. Protesters even torched vehicles. The stock followed suit, crashing from its all-time intraday high of $488.54 on Dec. 17 — in the euphoria immediately following Trump's victory — to $214.25 by April 7.Rattled by the reaction, Musk abruptly exited DOGE to refocus on Tesla, briefly calming markets. But stability didn't last. The White House's sweeping "One Big Beautiful" tax and spending bill delivered a decisive blow, effectively ending the Biden-era EV credits of up to $7,500 and piling on fresh pressure from Trump's aggressive tariff blitz. Musk blasted the bill, prompting a very public and very bitter feud with Trump — a development that only deepened investor anxiety.Still, Musk found a way to reignite optimism among his fanbase. He doubled down on Full Self-Driving upgrades, new Optimus demonstrations, and steady progress on Robotaxis, pushing a narrative that Tesla's next era — powered by autonomy, AI, and humanoid robots — would unlock massive long-term value.He also secured a historic trillion-dollar pay package, contingent on extremely ambitious milestones. The approval gave investors one critical reassurance: Musk, after months of distraction, would now be more committed to Tesla's future than ever before.<h2 class="st-heading-2">It’s Been A Bad 2025 For TSLA</h2>Even so, the stock spent the year whipsawing violently — deep in the red for months, clawing its way back into positive territory, and still on track for its weakest annual performance since 2022, when shares collapsed 65% as inflation-induced economic uncertainty tipped the market into bear territory.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">&nbsp;Tesla’s stock</a> is up merely 12.7% this year, underperforming the<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">&nbsp;SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a>, which is up 17% year-to-date (YTD),&nbsp;and the worst performer among the “Magnificent Seven” list.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_revenue_png_fe5b098f33.webp" alt="Tesla revenue.png">Source: Koyfin<h2 class="st-heading-2">Why Did Tesla Stutter In 2025?</h2>Tesla’s revenue, which received a big boost in 2021 following the Model Y launch, began to slow down subsequently. Annual revenue nearly flatlined at around $97K in 2023 and 2024, and the trailing 12-month revenue for 2025 shows a 2.1% year-over-year decline.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_Revenue_Since_2019_png_a45160ff13.webp" alt="Tesla_Revenue_Since_2019.png">Source: Fiscal.aiThe revenue stagnation is a function of slack delivery numbers. Deliveries for the nine months this year totaled 1.22 million. The magic number for Tesla to resume YoY revenue growth is 568,917. It should be noted that the company has not yet&nbsp;exceeded 500,000 in&nbsp;quarterly deliveries.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Tesla_Annual_Deliveries_jpg_599aa3a14c.webp" alt="Tesla_Annual_Deliveries.jpg">Source: Fiscal.aiAutomotive regulatory credits, which the government awards to companies for producing zero emissions and can be sold to other automakers seeking to comply with the norms, boost the company’s revenue and profits. These regulatory credits carry a 100% margin because there is no cost.&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Teslas_Green_Credits_Revenue_Is_Grinding_To_A_Halt_jpg_013e1f6ef2.webp" alt="Teslas_Green_Credits_Revenue_Is_Grinding_To_A_Halt.jpg">Source: Fiscal.aiAfter peaking at 16.8%, Tesla’s operating margin has gone downhill.

In a note released Sunday, Morgan Stanley analyst Andrew Percoco downgraded Tesla stock to ‘Equal Weight’ from ‘Overweight’ but upped the price target to $425 from $410, The Fly reported.

The 2% bonus is calculated on the net transferred asset value of each Tesla-inclusive transfer that settles in the applicable account. The bonus will be credited two weeks after the settlement.Clarifying further, Tenev stated that the move was not a “recommendation of any investment or strategy” or a suggestion to transfer assets to the platform. “By participating, the customer represents and warrants that they beneficially held TSLA on or before Nov. 3, 2025, and the transfer should reflect the prior holding.” Rollovers are not eligible, he added.&nbsp;Tesla CEO Elon Musk commented on Tenev’s post with a “fire” emoji.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Why It’s Important</h2>Tenev’s move comes at a time when Tesla backers&nbsp;have pushed back against Charles Schwab (SCHW),&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/tesla-retail-investors-threaten-charles-schwab-exodus-over-votes-against-elon-musk-s-1-trillion-pay-plan/cL2FHDVR3C3">claiming</a> several of its brokerage ETFs voted against Tesla management’s proposals&nbsp;for Musk’s record pay package.
