Shares of Tesla Motors (TSLA) have dropped 5.3% since Donald Trump won the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Some analysts have tried to explain away the move, but Morgan Stanley’s Adam Jonas and team write that they can’t see the election “in a positive light.” They explain why:

An environment that moves away from incentivizing electric vehicles is clearly adverse to the story. However, the company was set to exhaust its $7,500 US Federal tax credit for EVs by 2018 anyway and given the very high price point of its vehicles, we don��t believe the incentives were a dominant factor in the purchase decision for these high performance vehicles. Potential removal of incentives for solar adds a headwind to the energy side of the equation, particularly on the eve of the SolarCity (SCTY) acquisition. No direct exposure to Mexico for supply and relatively limited exposure to China for demand may limit the protectionism risk, but a stronger dollar hurts export profit. We cannot see this in a positive light for Tesla.
