Tesla stock fell after federal investigators released preliminary findings on a fatal Texas crash involving a 2025 Tesla Model 3. The National Transportation Safety Board concluded the driver, not Tesla's Full Self-Driving system, was responsible, as the driver accelerated beyond system limits. This supports Tesla's stance that the crash was due to human error. Technically, Tesla shares remain under pressure with key resistance at $433 and support at $380, indicating cautious trading ahead.
