• Negative Sentiment: Analysts flag that robotaxi/Autonomy rollouts are consuming cash and may weigh on near‑term free cash flow and margins even if they’re strategically important long‑term. Robotaxi rollout cuts into cash flow
• Negative Sentiment: Geopolitical/oil‑price shocks and analyst warnings (including dramatic downside scenarios) are creating macro risk that could pressure auto industry outlooks and investor appetite for high‑growth EV names. Prolonged Iran war could drive outlook cuts
