Is the Cybertruck at risk of becoming Elon Musk’s first full-blown flop?

On Thursday, EV enthusiast site Electrek reported Tesla delivery agents as saying all outbound vehicles have been stopped amid concerns that the glue holding the exterior stainless steel panelling in place is failing.
The issue isn’t new but it has remained unaddressed. Owners living in cold weather conditions in particular have been warning about it for weeks, posting images of sharp-edged metal trim protruding from their vehicles and flapping in the wind while driving. Some have even taken to reporting the problem to the federal traffic safety authority NHTSA, Road & Track reported last month.
But an image circulated recently showing the entire front bumper dangling loosely from the body may have tipped the scale.
The Cybertruck has been dogged with issues ever since it came out, with multiple recalls to fix not just software but actual build problems, including an accelerator pedal that caused accidents when it stuck in place or plastic trim around the bed flying off.
Elon Musk’s Tesla reportedly halts Cybertruck deliveries as owners complain of metal sides falling off.

Early 40s. I rolled my previous 401(k)s into this IRA and during the depths of COVID somehow decided to go all in on big tech before the Mag 7 was even a thing. Got lucky because of that. But as you can see, it's very volatile and makes me nervous during big market draw downs like this, but have stayed the course. At some point I will start diversifying away from the big names. The hard part is knowing when to do it.

You should hit this guy up. He has 200 of those Defenders stashed away.
How much man who bought 200 Land Rover Defenders in 2015 could be set to make selling them

That's lower than the Nasdaq or even fricking Walmart stock in the same period. I'm not sure that's a good argument.
