What stands out

On Schwab Network Landon Swan of LikeFolio flagged a sharp uptick in social and demand signals for Tesla's robotaxi effort, calling the pattern "very bullish" for AI growth even while conceding Alphabet's Waymo remains the clear leader. The segment matters because it pushes the debate from engineering timelines to visible market demand, implying Tesla's platform narrative could pull forward expectations for commercial deployment. It also shows how sentiment and adoption signals can outpace near-term profitability, which is exactly what investors argue about on stage.
