Tesla, Inc. ( TSLA ) shares are falling Thursday after a mix of broader industry developments and company-specific issues weighed negatively on investor sentiment. Here’s what you need to know.

What To Know: The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) recently announced an investigation into a recent crash involving a Tesla Semi truck in California. The accident, which occurred on August 19, resulted in the vehicle's battery catching fire and caused a significant traffic disruption. As Tesla prepares to ramp up production of the Semi by the end of 2025, this incident raises concerns about the safety and reliability of its new vehicle models.
