Tesla built upon the momentum of Musk’s closure of share sales and further buoyed by positive estimates of various analysts on the Q4 Tesla delivery numbers, jumped another 5% today to close at $1,067. The One Trillion Dollar EV maker promised to disable in-car videogame after US Highway safety regulator launched an investigation into the same. Crocs shares plunged by more than 11% after the company said it has agreed to purchase casual-shoe brand Heydude for $2.5 Billion ($2.05 Bn in cash and $450 Mn in Crocs shares).
