Time now for our trending tickers.

Let's begin things with TSL a looking at Tesla, the EV maker, planning to roll out its driver assistance technology known as FSD, or full self driving in Europe and China in the first quarter of 2025.

This is, of course, pending regulatory approval.

Here.

There, you're taking a look at shares.

They're jumping by about 2.5% right now.

Here.

In that timeline, they really laid out over the Tesla a IX account here saying, Due to popular demand, Tesla A i team releasing the road map here in September 2024.

You're looking for some cyber truck auto park as well, in addition to some of these announcements here eye tracking with sunglasses and to add networks on highways.

Um, cyber truck, full self driving coming by September 2024.

And then they get to October of this year on Park Park and reverse and FSD and then more FSD approved by Q 1 2025 as we mentioned in Europe and in China, I mean, shout out to the cyber truck Auto park men there, Brad, I can't wait to find out more colour on that in earnings reports to come.

But it is.

It is fascinating to see the moves that we've seen in Tesla over the past week or so because so much of the Magnificent seven has been under pressure and Tesla is sort of emerging, and we'll ask the experts about this.

But to me, it's looking like it's sort of a defensive play against some of these other automakers that have really been struggling on the heels of some tough news about EV sales slowdowns more broadly globally in Europe and China.

Now Tesla is set to launch this drive versus system in China.

Could that be a positive move for them?

Uh, possibly, you know, I'm just going to go back to this, uh, cyber truck Auto Park.

I know we got to go, but this is gonna be extremely valuable for a lot of people that are trying to figure out how to to park their geometric shape when they go out driving in the world.

I mean, this thing is large.

It's a unit.

You see it on the road.

I remember driving my parents UConn XL to college and just trying to figure out where to park it in Philadelphia.

It would have been extremely valuable to have something like this when I was parking the Shaquille Mobile back in the day.

We'll see if this works for cyber truck owners.

I've never seen Brad so passionate about a stock point, so I really appreciate that.

It's critical he used to drive a big truck.

Would you drive the cyber truck today?

That's the big question I test drive it.

He would test drive it.

All right, well, we'll we'll have to get a full video vlog of that experience.
