Since Donald Trump’s recent electoral victory, hedge funds shorting Tesla have experienced substantial losses. Many hedge funds, holding short positions on Tesla Inc., saw a combined on-paper loss exceeding $5 billion, Bloomberg reported, using data from S3 Partners. This financial blow stems from a sharp rally in Tesla’s stock price following Trump’s endorsement by Tesla CEO Elon Musk. In July, Musk publicly aligned himself with Trump, an alliance that has triggered considerable market shifts.

As Trump’s most high-profile billionaire supporter, Musk has leveraged his influence and wealth to back Trump’s campaign, becoming one of the 2024 election’s largest donors. His public support has led to speculation about potential political benefits, with Trump hinting at rewarding loyalists with roles in his administration. Following this alignment, Tesla’s shares soared by nearly 30%, creating a difficult situation for those who had held short positions on the stock. Consequently, many hedge funds have had to recalibrate their strategies to limit losses, as seen in Hazeltree’s data, which revealed that only 7% of hedge funds are now shorting Tesla, down from 17% in July.

Tesla Defies Broader EV Market Trends

Tesla’s performance starkly contrasts with the broader electric vehicle (EV) sector, which has faced numerous challenges, including slowing demand, trade tensions, and rising competition. According to the KraneShares Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility Index ETF, the EV market has declined by over 12% this year, following a similar dip in 2023. In contrast, Tesla has gained around 30% in 2024 alone, continuing its rapid growth after more than doubling in value the previous year.

This divergence highlights the risks of shorting Tesla, a company that has repeatedly outperformed industry trends. As recently as July, one in five hedge funds was shorting Tesla before the stock’s unexpected rally, which followed strong sales figures. This rally forced many to reverse their positions in the wake of Tesla’s sustained growth. Edward Lees, a portfolio manager at BNP Paribas Asset Management, describes Musk’s newfound political influence as a “bridge between the tech community and Washington,” positioning Tesla in a favorable light under the incoming administration.

Uncertain Future as Climate Policies Loom

While Musk’s close relationship with Trump may provide Tesla with short-term market confidence, some investors remain cautious about the long-term effects of Trump’s potential climate policies. Per Lekander, CEO of Clean Energy Transition, suggests that Trump’s win could eventually prove detrimental to Tesla as an automaker, particularly if clean energy incentives are slashed. Lekander anticipates that within 12 to 18 months, Trump’s administration could significantly reduce subsidies that have historically benefited Tesla, posing future challenges for the company.

Musk’s influence could secure him a governmental role, with Trump even suggesting the position of “Secretary of Cost Cutting” as a nod to Musk’s business acumen. If realized, such a position could grant Musk considerable leverage in reducing regulatory barriers. Nonetheless, some investors, including Lekander, believe Tesla’s reliance on government support could backfire if Trump follows through on his anti-climate policy promises.

The growth of electric vehicle (EV) composites is driven by several key factors, including the ability of lightweight materials like carbon fibre reinforced polymers and glass fibre reinforced plastics to reduce the weight of EV components by up to 50% compared to traditional materials, improving performance, energy efficiency, and driving range, providing moderate strength suitable for various applications like body panels, hoods, doors, and interior components, offering high strength-to-weight ratios that can absorb and dissipate energy during collisions to enhance passenger safety and provide corrosion resistance and fire protection for critical components. Specific thermal properties used for battery enclosures and insulation to maintain optimal operating temperatures, improving efficiency and lifespan, moldability enabling more aerodynamic shapes and complex designs that reduce air resistance and improve efficiency.

Carbon fiber type segment is expected to grow with highest CAGR in EV composites market during the forecasted period.

The EV composites market is segmented based on the fiber types into carbon fiber, glass fiber and other fiber. Carbon fibers are twice as strong and 30% lighter compared to glass fibers and has been used in electric vehicles for the major purpose of weight reduction. carbon fiber composites can be moulded into complex shapes, simplifying the assembly process and reducing part counts, and the lightweight nature of carbon fiber composites reduces the carbon footprint and emissions of EVs, making them a more environmentally friendly option compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.

In Feb 2023, Toray Industries Inc. developed a rapid integration molding technique for CRFP (Carbon Reinforced Fiber Plastic) mobility components. This innovation will aid in molding CFRP mobility components in a better and faster way than traditional molding setups. The versatility and superior characteristics of carbon fiber composites make it an attractive option for EV industry, driving its adoption and growth in the market.

Thermoplastic resin type segment is expected to grow with highest CAGR in EV composites market during the forecasted period.

The EV composites market is segmented based on the resin types into thermoset and thermoplastic. In recent years, the use of thermoplastic resins as a matrix material in fiber-reinforced composites has surged. These resins, combined with continuous fibers, create structural composite products with several key advantages. Unlike thermoset resins, thermoplastic composites can be reshaped and reformed, making them easily recyclable. This recyclability has contributed to their growing popularity over the past decade. Additionally, thermoplastic resins allow for faster molding cycles since no chemical reaction is required for curing, and they offer superior impact resistance compared to thermosets.

When used with long fibers, thermoplastic resins provide high stiffness and lightweight properties, which are particularly beneficial for EV applications. In June 2016, LANXESS AG from Germany developed multiaxial Tepex, a product designed to enhance the mechanical performance of automotive components. This innovation has helped the company address the increasing demand for lightweight electric automotive parts.

Ultra-premium segment type is expected to have third largest share during forecasting period in terms of value

In this segment, The electric vehicles which costs more than 100,000 USD are considered to be ultra-premium.
