Biggest stock movers Tuesday: TSLA, AVAV, and more

BIGGEST STOCK LOSERS * TESLA (TSLA [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/TSLA]) -4% – Shares slipped after President Donald Trump criticized Elon Musk on Truth Social, claiming he has overly benefited from EV subsidies and suggesting Tesla wouldn't survive without them. Separately, Tesla faces mounting headwinds in Europe, with vehicle registrations in Denmark plunging 61.6% Y/Y in June to 1,282 units, per Mobility Denmark data. The sharp drop underscores weakening demand in a key European market where Tesla previously saw strong growth. * AEROVIRONMENT (AVAV [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AVAV]) -7% – Shares dropped after the defense tech firm announced plans to raise up to $1.35B via public offerings of stock and convertible debt. The company aims to offer $750M in common stock and $600M in convertible senior notes due 2030, with underwriters granted options to purchase up to an additional $112.5M in stock and $90M in notes.
Proceeds will be used to repay existing term loans and revolver borrowings, with the remainder allocated for general corporate purposes, including boosting manufacturing capacity. * PROGRESS SOFTWARE (PRGS [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/PRGS]) -4% – Shares slipped despite delivering a solid Q2, with non-GAAP EPS of $1.40 topping estimates by $0.10 and revenue of $237.4M (+35.6% Y/Y) coming in line.
