The selloff followed Tesla’s TSLA, +2.47% disclosure that it had cut prices for its Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in China by more than 10%, the second price cut in three months. It also bucked the rally in the broader stock market, as the S&P 500 SPX, +2.28% surged 2.3%.

The stock’s rally this week followed the company’s report earlier in the week showing that December and fourth-quarter deliveries fell sharply from a year ago, even though Nio Inc. NIO, -4.51% and Li Auto Inc. LI, -9.16% reported big year-over-year increases.

Tesla’s stock swung to a gain of 2.5% to close at $113.06, reversing an earlier intraday loss of as much as 7.7%.
