The blaring New Year’s Day headlines would be panic-inducing for any CEO: Your signature product, in this case Tesla’s Cybertruck, caught fire and exploded outside Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. And for Tesla and Elon Musk, few topics are touchier than vehicle fires.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk' relationship could be tuning sour right before the gala Presidential inauguration ceremony, and the latest incident of the Tesla Cybertruck exploding outside Trump's prized hotel has become the latest example of how trollers have taken the stage, and claimed that this mishap was otherwise a ‘Perfect Metaphor’ for 2025.

One person died and seven others were injured Wednesday when a Tesla Cybertruck that appeared to be carrying fireworks caught fire and exploded outside a Las Vegas hotel owned by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s company, authorities said.

Donald Trump is supposed to be having some field days in the next couple of weeks before his gala inauguration ceremony at the US Capitol, Washington DC, where he will be assuming the tole of US President for a second term. However, even before this, there are talks about a possible fallout between Donald Trump and Elon Musk over a variety of issues, with the Tesla CEO's thoughts about the H-1B visas taking the cake.

Elon Musk acknowledges using contentious weight-loss medication. 'Make America Healthy Again' won't be aided by drugs like Ozempic, asserted Kennedy.

Republican Party over immigration, a signature promise in Donald Trump's return to the White House. Unsurprisingly, the pressure point is over high-skilled immigration through the H-1B visa programme, which mainly draws in tech professionals from India.

Trump's core constituency has a strong nativist element that informed his approach to H-1B visas in his first term.

Amnish Aggarwal, Head — Research, Prabhudas Lilladher, says ITC will retain a 40% stake in ITC Hotels, potentially reducing its sum of the parts (SOTP) valuation by Rs 15-17 post the latter’s listing. This makes the ITC Hotels listing a positive for shareholders. Three key events for ITC are: the demerger of ITC Hotels, a possible interim dividend in mid-February, and the upcoming Budget, which may affect duties. If excise duties remain unchanged in February, the stock could see double-digit returns, with a potential gain of around Rs 20 per share from the ITC Hotels listing. How is the year ahead going to pan out? Is it going to be as happy as the first half of 2024 or not quite? Amnish Aggarwal: In the next couple of months, I expect the markets to remain slightly volatile because the first factor to watch out for is Donald Trump summing reins as the US president. The second key factor to watch out for will be the Budget on 1st of February and then obviously the earning season is ahead of us. So, the next couple of months could be volatile but as we progress through the year, I expect the markets to not only stabilise but give double-digit returns in the coming year.
