One thing the Tesla Investor Day accomplished well was to turn shareholders' attention to the broader organization under Tesla's celebrity CEO.
Deutsche Bank analysts wrote in a Friday morning autos update, "Walking away from Tesla's investor day, we were admittedly disappointed with the overall lack of details on its next-gen platform, including launch timing, vehicle segments and price points, and financial implications.
During the event, Tesla trotted out 17 different company leaders who spoke about what the company has achieved so far, and where it hopes to go next. His moves at Twitter and increasingly political provocations on Twitter appear to have dampened interest in the Tesla brand, particularly among left-leaning potential customers and shareholders, according to data from YouGov shared with CNBC.
"It's public speaking, not public reading. It's hard to have confidence in someone who is supposed to be the expert, but who is looking down and reading off scripts. Too often, engineers think they get a pass on public speaking -- but this skill has to be in the tool kit of any executive," Thomas advised.
