Datadog Gears Up For Q1 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares fell 2.42% on Monday as investors digested troubling European sales data and a prominent fund manager&#8217;s warning about the company&#8217;s growth trajectory.
What Happened: Gary Black, Managing Partner at Future Fund, highlighted alarming sales trends in a post on X, noting that April European sales are projected to drop 47% year-over-year. Black emphasized that this decline can no longer be attributed to Model Y production changes.
&#8220;We predict that FY&#8217;25 Tesla deliveries will be -6% year-over-year versus FY&#8217;24,&#8221; Black wrote, compared to Wall Street&#8217;s estimated 3% decline.
The fund manager expressed concern that Tesla&#8217;s current valuation appears disconnected from its projected earnings. He pointed out that the stock is trading at a significantly higher multiple than its historical average, with its price reflecting over 130 times estimated non-GAAP earnings for fiscal 2025 and more than 90 times for fiscal 2026.
In comparison, Tesla&#8217;s average one-year forward price-to-earnings ratio over the past three years has been around 76 times.

Former Vice President Mike Pence&nbsp;voiced his apprehensions about President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariff policies, hinting at potential economic fallout and shortages.
What Happened: Pence, during an <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/05/politics/january-6-pence-trump-tariffs-russia">interview </a>with CNN&#8217;s Kaitlan Collins, expressed his belief that the broad-based tariffs introduced by Trump could trigger a &#8220;price shock&#8221; in the economy and possible shortages.
He argued that these policies are not aimed at countries exploiting the trade relationship with the U.S., but are essentially a new industrial policy that could lead to inflation and harm consumers and the American economy.
The former VP stated, "I do think this version of tariff policy that's broad-based, indiscriminate, applies tariffs to friend and foe alike, is not a win for the American people."
Pence also voiced concerns about the possible consequences once the 90-day pause on steep &#8220;reciprocal&#8221; tariffs, announced by Trump on April 10, comes to an end. He cautioned that Americans might soon experience sticker shock and potential shortages.
In response to Trump&#8217;s recent remarks implying that American children might have to settle for fewer toys because of these policies, Pence highlighted that access to affordable goods is essential for helping Americans live within their means.
&#8220;&#8230;keeping dolls affordable, keeping our kids' toys affordable, that really is part of the American dream," stated Pence.
Pence distanced himself from Trump&#8217;s repeated assertions that Canada should become the 51st state, instead commending Canada as a strong and valued ally of the United States.

Marjorie Taylor Greene &#8216;Frustrated And Upset&#8217; With The Trump Administration, Questions US Foreign Policy: &#8216;You Better Be Clear, The Base Is Not Happy&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: On Sunday, Pence received the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for standing firm against endorsing false claims about the 2020 election being stolen.
Earlier in April, Pence had labeled Trump&#8217;s sweeping tariffs as &#8220;a misstep&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44753262/former-vice-president-mike-pence-calls-trumps-tariff-moves-misstep-cites-potential-economic-harm-to">and warned</a> that if left as it is, the strategies would amount to &#8220;the largest peacetime tax hike in American history.&#8221; 
In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, the former VP praised Trump&#8217;s early wins, such as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45088889/mike-pence-says-trump-comeback-unrivaled-in-modern-american-history-but-only-return-to-values-of-first-term-will-ensure-presidents-legacy">cutting illegal immigration</a> by over 90% at the southern border and restoring American strength abroad. However, he cautioned that these &#8220;hard-won and overdue&#8221; gains could be lost if the administration strays from its original playbook.
Trump&#8217;s tariff policies have also sparked a trade war that could potentially lead to empty toy shelves during the holiday season. However, the President said that China has earned over a trillion dollars by selling the United States products Americans don&#8217;t need. He dismissed worries about store shelves being empty, including in toy stores.

Two Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) investors, dormant for over a decade, moved roughly $325 million worth of the asset on Monday, sparking intrigue in the cryptocurrency community.
What Happened: According to on-chain tracker Spot On Chain, the first whale moved 2,343 BTC, worth $222.2 million, to a new wallet after 10.5 years of inactivity. The second whale&nbsp;resurfaced after more than 11 years, shifting&nbsp;1,079 Bitcoin, worth approximately $102.5 million.
Dormant wallets, especially those holding large amounts of Bitcoin, are often tied to early adopters or miners who bought into the asset when it was just a fraction of today&#8217;s price.
These moves could be motivated by recovered keys, ownership changes or long-term holders looking to cash out after years of HODLing.

Why It Matters: This massive movement of Bitcoin comes at a time when the cryptocurrency market is experiencing a period of relative stability. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45212767/bitcoin-ethereum-flat-dogecoin-dips-even-as-trump-calls-crypto-popular-analyst-says-btc-build-up-good-predicts-eth-uptrend-after-fed-meet">apex coin consolidated between $94,000 and $95,000 </a>on Monday, following a pullback from $97,000.
That said, analysts voiced optimism about its long-term outlook. Macro expert Raoul Pal predicted that Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets are entering the second leg of a steep, liquidity-driven bull phase, which he described as the &#8220;banana zone.&#8221; He believed that Bitcoin could hit $450,000.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45208000/palantir-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-in-line-customer-count-up-39-company-raises-guidance-citing-surging-and-ferocious-growth">better-than-expected earnings</a> Monday evening, yet the stock tumbled 9.25% in after-hours trading.
What Happened: Despite the strong results, two well-known analysts are taking very different positions on Palantir&#8217;s future.
Dan Ives of Wedbush remained firmly bullish. "You could print this press release off, frame it, and put it in the Louvre," Ives said during an appearance on CNBC. "I believe this is going to be a $1 trillion market cap in the next 2 to 3 years."
However, Brent Thill of Jefferies disagreed. While acknowledging Palantir's strong fundamentals, he remained cautious about the company's high valuation.&nbsp;

Palantir has now met or exceeded Wall Street's earnings and revenue expectations for seven straight quarters. Yet the company&#8217;s valuation, which some analysts say reflects 65 times its revenue, is drawing comparisons to previous tech high-fliers like Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>), whose valuations came back down to earth.
"This is a retail-driven story," Thill said. "There's not a single institutional investor I talk to that even talks about this."
Ives pushed back on that view, arguing that institutional skepticism has left many money managers behind the curve on one of the most transformative companies in AI.&nbsp;

Palantir Is A 'Retail-Driven Story,' Says Top Analyst As PLTR Stock Falls 9% In After-Hours: 'Not A Single Institutional Investor...Talks About This'

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk shared a host of updates, outlining what he believes the future holds for the billionaire's ventures, including TSLA, SpaceX, and Neuralink.
What Happened: "It's a company that I've grown and nurtured over twenty years," Musk said about Tesla in an interview with Fox News on Sunday.
"Tesla in a few months will release Unsupervised Full Self-Driving," Musk said before sharing that the Unsupervised FSD tech will first see application in Austin, Texas, before being rolled out to the rest of the U.S.
"In fact, in the future, it'll be unusual to see a manually-driven car. It'll be like seeing a horse," Musk said, highlighting his optimism for the technology's far-reaching impacts.
He then shared an update on Tesla's Optimus line of humanoid robots, calling it a "personal R2D2 or a C3PO robot buddy" and predicted it'll be a "massive, massive product."
Musk went on to reiterate his ambitions of setting up a city on Mars with SpaceX before sharing an update about Neuralink's BCI (Brain-Computer Interface) called Blindsight, which the billionaire says will help blind people see, including those who have been blind from birth.
"Hopefully we'll be able to do the first Blindsight implant in a human later this year, within the next 12 months, I'm quite confident we can do that," Musk said. He also shared how the company hopes to begin work on a Neuralink implant, which will help people with a "severed spinal column to walk again."
Why It Matters: Musk's comments in the interview come as Tesla will begin its robotaxi operations in June. The company has already released the robotaxi in a limited rollout and completed over 1,500 trips.&nbsp;
Tesla and other U.S.-based autonomous driving companies also got a boost from the Trump administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001024/trump-administration-announces-exemptions-for-autonomous-driving-companies-in-the-us-eases-self-driving-crash-report-requirements">through exemptions</a> in the U.S. auto safety standards.
However, Tesla continues to experience difficulties as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45192200/teslas-european-woes-deepen-as-new-car-sales-for-april-plunge-in-spain-as-chinese-rivals-soar">company's sales plunge</a> in Europe, as the company registered 571 vehicles in Spain, according to data released by ANFAC.
Elsewhere, Musk's SpaceX added over 28 satellites to its low Earth orbit constellation of Starlink space-based internet services. However, experts have raised concerns about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/05/45163320/as-elon-musks-spacex-adds-28-starlinks-research-flags-climate-impact-from-deorbiting-satellites">the ecological impacts</a> of the satellites deorbiting and reentering the Earth's atmosphere.
Interestingly, NASA is facing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45189017/nasa-prepares-for-6-billion-budget-cut-amid-shift-towards-elon-musks-mars-focused-initiatives">$6 billion budget cut</a> from the Trump administration, as well as a shift towards Mars-focused ventures, which could be a boost for Musk and SpaceX.
