Tesla (TSLA.US) stock fell over 3.0% on Monday after the most popular EV maker lowered prices for its Model 3 and Model Y cars by as much as 9% in China amid weakening demand in the world's largest auto market, shortly after CEO Musk reassured the company would continue robust production regardless of whether or not the global economy slipped into recession.
Tesla told Reuters it was adjusting prices in line with costs. Capacity utilization at its Shanghai Gigafactory has improved, while the supply chain remains stable despite the impact on the economy of China's stringent zero-COVID restrictions, leading to lower costs, it said.
