US PPI Up 26% Over 5 Years: Charlie Bilello Says 2% Inflation Is a Myth and the Fed Should Hold Rates

Tesla Stock TSLA Lags NDX as Robotaxi Rivals Scale 750K Weekly Rides; NVIDIA NVDA Opens Autonomy Stack — 4 Catalysts Gary Black Highlights
According to @garyblack00, TSLA has underperformed with roughly -12% year to date versus NDX at about -2%, extending its 2025 underperformance when TSLA was about +11% versus NDX around +20% (source: @garyblack00 on X). He states the bull case that only Tesla can deliver generalized unsupervised autonomy is breaking down as Alphabet (GOOG), Baidu (BIDU), WeRide (WRD), Pony.ai (PONY), and Amazon (AMZN) are already completing approximately 750K paid unsupervised robotaxi rides per week without safety monitors (source: @garyblack00 on X). He adds that NVIDIA (NVDA) will make its AI chips and autonomy software stack available to other OEMs starting in 1H 2026, effectively democratizing unsupervised autonomy (source: @garyblack00 on X). To reverse TSLA’s trend, he outlines four catalysts: a broad FSD-led brand campaign to drive volumes and share; removing safety monitors from Tesla robotaxis to validate unsupervised capability; launching a conventional pickup to capture underpenetrated TAM and boost earnings; and CEO share purchases to signal confidence (source: @garyblack00 on X).
