d w a business. welcome. tesla's share price has taken a tumble once again. this time dropping 12 percent on the new york stock exchange. it's yet more had news for a long mosques, car maker, which had a rough time last year. the value of the company's shares plummeted over 65 percent in 2022. the problem, at least in part, is that the company missed the expectations of investors. tesla sold 1300000 cars last year, more than ever before, but instead of 50 percent sales growth. sales increased by only 40 percent compared to the previous year. sale still went up, but investors worry. it could be the early signs of a slow down. meanwhile, reuters reports at the previous boss of teslas chinese operations. tom jew has been promoted to take care of the company's north american sales plants and distribution
12:18 am
. a move that puts him 2nd only to elan himself. while we can hear more about this from yen quarter, who has more on this from new york? yes. tell us more about the reaction on wall street to tesla's results. it seems that they were quite disappointed. daniel, clearly invest stonewall today. not too heavy and the same is true for analysts are actually a couple of entities from the big bang. so either downgraded the stock or lower the price to target to for that company. it's not only about deliveries at this point. i mean, as you mentioned, they are historically high and then with the new plants in berlin and also in texas delivery, it could still still be on a pretty good to track. but another concern by now is actually a profit margin. so we did hear from tesla that in certain cases, say for example, offer some incentives so they could care less per car and that could put a profit,
12:19 am
the profit margins under pressure, and that's what was sweetest, focused on at this point. let me take one example from and that is to, isn't that down beat goldman sachs, for example, they did lower the price target for tests, but they're saying in the long term it still looks pretty good for a test as they might remain being the leader when it comes to the mobility, but clearly at this point, a lot of trouble for tests are not a good start into the new trading year for the company. yeah, looks like plenty of problems to fix least on investors opinion against quarter in new york. thank you very much. peter fennel is vice president of technology at cap gemini, engineering. thank you very much for joining us, peter. test the risks facing a multitude of difficulties right now. where do you see the biggest pain points for the company? you, daniel, thank you very much for having me. well, clearly, tesla,
12:20 am
a company that was always had an order of success had a lot of had been in the last 2 years. right. so 1st and foremost, we also had from the press, there was an increasing number of product recall throughout the year. they had the safety investigations from legislators most around. they are automated driving slash driver assistance systems. there have been a questionable progress and also safety concerns on test last a full self driving vehicle software suite. right. and last but not least, for the year in the public concerns over ellen musk site activities, namely his, they can twitter his wasting out of questionable political opinions. and last but not least, his other obligations he has reached out to companies and all that overshadowed his the success of test line, 2022 and put some scratches into the shiny metal of tesla so far. and it's focus
12:21 am
that over 60 percent in the past year, could it be that test that was just overvalued in the 1st place? well, clearly i think, you know, the stock market is trading expectations. yeah. and if you, if you listen to the tesla story, revolutionizing mobility, revolutionizing energy markets, and also potentially revolutionizing manufacturing in the future with this up to must robot. well, there are a lot of stories that i would say justify i lation. but in reality, you see that the market has moved on tesla acted as a catalyst in order to bring electric and mobility to the masses. and a lot of competition has scaled up. and also clearly in the next years we will see the tesla is at least for its vehicle operating in a limited market. even if we are very, very bullish, we will see the that the vehicle market not grow beyond the $100000000.00 vehicles
12:22 am
per annum. right. and if tesla would continue to grow with the current rate, it would be around $30000000.00 vehicles per here. and that to be a market share. so to percent, that's not realistic. so i think we see a down scaling now of the off the expectations and also the effect on the stock market. ok, and what is report that, thomas, you has become 2nd in command. what do we know about you just briefly if you can, and why is he being drafted in? you are right. clearly in the past, test lab was very keen to, to, to always, to always foster the nature of the law mascot. the one men rule with all, but we should not forget the tesla is now a company with a rough stuff around 100000 talents. yes. so clearly it needs a functioning, a functioning organization in order to, to run this company profitable and successfully. so talk to is he's with test luck
12:23 am
since 2014. right. so he started and he was tasked as, as, as a person to build up the supercharger network in china and very soon became general manager. and then the last year he's been more widely known as the, as the manager who, who kept take effect to re shanghai open your it cove, it. right. so he's, he's a real and accomplished manager and tom to many people think, oh, is this a chinese not running tesla? i'm to have some very international background. he's chinese bore and he holds a new sealant passport. and he also did his and be at the renowned duke university in the us. so, and his previous jobs he worked across the globe even in africa. so i do think that he, he brings the determination and the cultural background in order to make this new task successful. all right, that's that peter fennel there from cap gemini. thank you very much. thank you very much. let's shift gears now with some other global business stories making news.
