On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Tesla (TSLA) investors shrugged off the company’s worst vehicle sales since 2022 and bid up its shares on hopes that Elon Musk will step back from his work for the Trump administration. While the billionaire has yet to make an announcement about his plans, a report by Politico Wednesday suggested his time as a top adviser to Donald Trump may end soon. The president has told his inner circle recently that the Tesla chief executive officer will return to his businesses in the coming weeks, according to the news outlet, which cited unidentified Trump insiders. Tesla shares jumped following the report.

- Newsmax (NMAX) shares were cut in half on Wednesday after a raucous two-day surge fueled in part by retail traders briefly made it larger than Fox Corp. The stock slumped as much as 50%, wiping out $15 billion in market value, after a 2,230% surge in Newsmax’s first two days as a public company. Retail investors were less vocal about the stock in trader chatrooms compared to prior days, with buy orders on Fidelity’s platform more muted compared to those for larger companies.

- Amazon (AMZN) shares rose after the NYT reported that the e-commerce giant made a last-minute offer to buy TikTok in the US. The company sent its proposal in a letter to Vice President JD Vance, who’s heading efforts to help facilitate a sale of the US operations of the video platform ahead of a deadline later this week, and to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.
