📉 Stocks of Vaccine Makers Slide Amid RFK Jr.'s HHS Nomination
President-elect Donald Trump’s decision to nominate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a known vaccine skeptic, as the head of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services triggered declines in vaccine maker stocks. Major U.S. firms like Pfizer, Eli Lilly, and Novavax, along with international companies such as AstraZeneca and BioNTech, faced drops in share prices. Concerns stem from Kennedy's history of promoting anti-vaccine rhetoric and advocating against corporate influence in health agencies, signaling potential regulatory disruptions ahead.

🏎 Tesla Stock Rebounds Amid EV Tax Credit Debate
Tesla's stock recovered slightly on Friday, up 0.6% in premarket trading at $312.94, after a sharp 5.8% drop on Thursday. The market is reacting to reports that President-elect Donald Trump plans to reduce or eliminate EV tax credits, which make Tesla and other electric vehicles more affordable for buyers.
Wall Street analysts are divided:
• Wedbush’s Dan Ives views this as a potential long-term advantage for Tesla, given its global scale and cost structure. He maintains a *Buy* rating with a $400 price target.
• Gary Black of Future Fund ETF, however, warns that losing the credit could hurt Tesla's profit margins, as seen with past price cuts.
• Wells Fargo’s Colin Langan argues the repeal would negatively impact all automakers, especially those like GM and Ford, which have yet to turn a profit on EVs.
