**Tesla to Release Q1 2026 Earnings Post-Market April 22; Market Focus Shifts to Autonomy, Robots Over Financials** Wall Street expects Tesla to report ~$22.2 billion in revenue and $0.37 adjusted EPS for Q1 2026, but analysts note these metrics are having diminishing impact on its stock price. Market attention has shifted sharply to CEO Elon Musk’s long-term vision—specifically progress on **Robotaxi** (autonomous ride-hailing) and **Optimus (Autobidder)** humanoid robots. While Tesla has expanded Robotaxi to some Texas cities, deployment scale remains limited and growth lags prior expectations, frustrating some investors. Capital expenditure (capex) pressure is mounting: Tesla projects 2026 capex to hit at least $20 billion, with some institutions forecasting a $25–$35 billion range. Combined with high-investment projects like “Terafab,” future free cash flow could turn negative. Institutional views are split: Morgan Stanley argues Tesla’s autonomous driving business is a

**April 22 Update** Xinhua News Agency reported Thursday that Iran’s Tasnim News Agency labeled U.S. President Donald Trump a “liar again” in response to his remarks that day suggesting a new round of U.S.-Iran talks could occur on April 24. Trump told the New York Post in contradictory comments that a second round of talks with Iran might take place on the 24th. However, Tehran has not yet decided to participate in the proposed April 24 talks and has not revised its plan to skip the negotiations. Additionally, the Iranian government has not officially announced its stance on extending the ceasefire.

April 22 — The U.S. dollar weakened sharply on Tuesday as Middle East tensions eased (dimming its safe-haven appeal) and renewed bets on a Federal Reserve rate cut this year spurred global funds to pull out of dollar assets at an accelerated pace. The U.S. Dollar Index has dropped ~2.3% from its late March peak, marking its worst monthly performance since August 2023. Wall Street firms cite two key drivers for the greenback’s slide: fading safe-haven premiums and shifting policy expectations. JPMorgan has restarted its dollar-shorting strategy and turned bullish on risk-sensitive currencies like the Australian dollar. Bank of New York Mellon notes emerging market currencies have rebounded across the board, a sign of a sharp jump in global risk appetite. Rising Fed rate-cut bets have also sent funds flowing back into high-yield and carry trade positions. Previously pressured currencies — including the euro, Korean won, and South African rand — have rebounded strongly, with some

**IDF Alleges Hezbollah Violated Ceasefire, Vows to Neutralize Threats** On April 22, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) issued a statement claiming Hezbollah in Lebanon violated the ceasefire agreement, adding it would take action to eliminate the threat. The military said Hezbollah launched a drone targeting its soldiers south of the Blue Line in southern Lebanon. It noted the incident breached the ceasefire and that the drone had been intercepted. The IDF also stated it would continue acting to neutralize any threat to Israeli civilians and troops. Earlier the same day, the IDF announced that during operations to dismantle armed infrastructure in multiple areas south of the Blue Line, soldiers seized weapons including rocket launchers, ammunition, drones, and firearms. These weapons, the IDF claimed, were intended for Hezbollah militants to attack Israeli forces. Additionally, the IDF mentioned that the day prior, two armed individuals who crossed the Blue Line and approach

April 22 — U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said she expects the Iran conflict to end, which would drive down natural gas prices. Gasoline prices could fall below pre-conflict levels with Iran. President Trump has shown his ability to lower energy costs. The claim that Iran would gain $14 billion from sanctions relief is “pure fantasy,” the U.S. Treasury Department stated. Lifting sanctions on Iran would release more than 250 million barrels of seaborne oil, the department added — without this action, prices would be higher (Kinling).
