World leaders are courting Musk for Tesla factories, production facilities
Mexico, Elon Musk will be the big winners from UAW strike: Louis Navellier
Navellier & Associates founder and CIO Louis Navellier weighs in on the UAW strike’s potential global impact, including what it could mean for China’s invasion tactics.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Monday denied a report that the company is in talks with Saudi Arabia about setting up a manufacturing facility in the country.
The Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources familiar with the matter, that the electric vehicle maker is in early talks with Saudi Arabia about the possible plant, and that the kingdom has been wooing Tesla with the right to purchase certain quantities of metals and minerals the company needs for its electric vehicles from countries, including the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Musk said in May that Tesla would likely select a new factory location by the end of 2023. The EV company currently has six factories in the U.S., China and Germany, and is building a seventh in Mexico in northern Nuevo Leon state.
