Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has started taking questions from shareholders to address during the company&#8217;s second-quarter earnings call.
What Happened: Tesla&#8217;s second-quarter earnings call is scheduled for July 23, 5:30 pm ET. Shareholders have already started pouring in questions, which may likely be answered by the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39305704/tesla-investor-relations-chief-martin-viecha-to-depart-after-annual-shareholder-meeting-elon-musk-sa">new investor relations hea</a>d Travis Axelrod.
A whopping number of questions raised by shareholders are centered around the company&#8217;s stainless steel Cybertruck. The questions range from possible timelines for the release of the vehicle outside the U.S., a timeline for the availability of Tesla&#8217;s driver assistance technology called Full Self Driving or FSD on the vehicle, and even details on its production rate.
Other popular topics among shareholders as of now seem to be FSD and robotaxi. Shareholders raised queries on possible FSD transfer offers, price drops, and timelines for the technology&#8217;s availability in Europe and China, among others. 
As for the robotaxi, the key question is when the product will be unveiled. Though Tesla CEO Elon Musk initially pegged the robotaxi event for Aug. 8, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39785823/elon-musk-confirms-delay-in-tesla-robotaxi-unveil-due-to-important-design-change-but-stays-mum-on-ne">recently confirmed media reports</a> and said on X that he has requested a few design changes to the vehicle, thereby delaying the event. 
Shareholders have until June 23, 4 pm ET to submit questions, meaning a lot more questions are potentially on the way.
Why It Matters: Tesla delivered 443,956 vehicles <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39595720/tesla-deliveries-fall-for-second-straight-quarter-but-stock-takes-off-as-q2-numbers-exceed-expec">in the second quarter</a> globally, marking a 4.8% drop from last year but still beating the consensus estimate. The company also deployed 9.4 GWh of energy storage products in the quarter, marking the highest quarterly deployment to date. 
The financial results for the second quarter are now scheduled for after the market closes on July 23. 
In the second quarter of 2023, Tesla reported total revenue of $24.93 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $4.65 billion after delivering 466,140 vehicles.

Australian computer scientist Craig Wright, who has consistently claimed to be the creator of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), has been ordered by a judge in the United Kingdom to publicly deny being Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous founder of the world&#8217;s largest cryptocurrency.
What Happened: In an order issued Tuesday, James Mellor directed Wright to announce on his website, Slack, and X that he is not the founder of Bitcoin, as per a <a href="https://www.theblock.co/post/305731/craig-wright-forced-to-post-that-he-is-not-actually-bitcoin-founder-satoshi-nakamoto-following-uk-ruling?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social">report </a>by The Block.
Judge Mellor stated, &#8220;I do not consider a notice on his website on its own to be adequate.&#8221; He ordered the publication of an amended notice on Wright&#8217;s website homepage, X feed, and all Slack channels for a period of three to six months.

Wright&#8217;s website now reflects these <a href="https://craigwright.net/">changes,</a> with a legal disclaimer denying his claims of being Nakamoto, and his copyright ownership of the Bitcoin whitepaper.
Why It Matters: This development follows a series of legal battles involving Wright&#8217;s claims to be the creator of Bitcoin. In February, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/02/36949178/is-craig-wright-actually-satoshi-nakamoto-bitcoins-alleged-creators-assertion-deemed-a-bra">Wright&#8217;s assertion was deemed a &#8216;brazen lie&#8217;</a> in a U.K. High Court. The Crypto Open Patent Alliance, backed by Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, sought a &#8220;negative declaration&#8221; that Wright is not Nakamoto.
In March, Judge Mellor ruled that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto or the author of the Bitcoin whitepaper, concluding weeks of legal proceedings. Wright first claimed to be Satoshi in 2016.

Why Are GameStop And Kitty-Themed Memecoins Trading Higher Today? Read On

Renowned economist Peter Schiff compared the record high of gold with the contrasting decline of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), hinting at a bear market for the cryptocurrency.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Schiff wrote on X that gold had hit another record high, trading just below $2,450. He forecasted that it wouldn&#8217;t be long before the yellow metal breaks above $2,500. 
Schiff contrasted this with Bitcoin&#8217;s performance, stating that when priced in gold, Bitcoin is down 30% from its 2021 record high. &#8220;Wake up and smell the bear market HODLers,&#8221; the gold bug said, jeering at long-term investors of the world&#8217;s largest digital currency.

Why It Matters: Schiff has been criticized for coming up with small timeframe windows to highlight Bitcoin&#8217;s weaknesses and exaggerate the performance of assets he supports. 
However, even a cursory glance at the <a href="https://casebitcoin.com/charts">returns</a> offered by Bitcoin and inflation hedge assets shows that the &#8220;digital gold&#8221; has massively outperformed its real-world counterpart. Even over the last year, Bitcoin is up 120%, compared to gold&#8217;s 25% gains.
Earlier this month, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39639419/amid-bitcoin-crash-peter-schiff-forecasts-prolonged-bear-market-dont-say-i-didnt-warn-you-">warned that the cryptocurrency&#8217;s bear market was far from over and predicted further downsides</a> for Bitcoin.

Peter Schiff Downplays Bitcoin, Hypes Gold's Rise: 'Wake Up And Smell The Bear Market'

Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) took a hit, dropping over 2% following comments made by Presidential candidate Donald Trump. As per a Reuters report, Trump suggested that Taiwan should compensate the United States for its defense.
What Happened: Trump&#8217;s remarks, made during a Bloomberg Businessweek interview on June 25 and published on Tuesday, indicated that Taiwan should bear the cost of its defense. &#8220;I know the people very well, respect them greatly. They did take about 100% of our chip business. I think, Taiwan should pay us for defense,&#8221; he said.
TSMC, a key player in the advanced chip manufacturing industry, significantly influences the global economy. Any discord over Taiwan could potentially wreak havoc on the world economy.
While the U.S. is Taiwan&#8217;s main international supporter and arms provider, there is no formal defense agreement between the two nations. Nevertheless, the U.S. is legally bound to equip Taiwan with the means to defend itself.

Multiple States Begin Intoxicating Hemp Crackdown</a>
TSMC, currently in its quiet period before its second-quarter earnings report on Thursday, has yet to comment on Trump&#8217;s remarks. The Taiwanese government has also not issued any immediate response.
Why It Matters: Earlier this year, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36818930/trumps-return-to-white-house-could-spell-disaster-for-taipei-warns-war-game-simulation-taiwan-was-to">war game simulation</a> warned of a grim outcome for Taiwan if tensions with China escalated during a hypothetical Trump return to the White House. The simulation ended with Taiwan unable to meet the demands of China and the U.S.
In March, Taiwan&#8217;s foreign ministry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37975815/taiwan-confident-in-us-support-regardless-of-trump-biden-election-dynamics-amid-china-tensions">expressed confidence</a> in the continuity of U.S. support, irrespective of the presidential election outcome.
Amid growing threats from China, Taiwan's new Minister of Science and Technology, Wu Cheng-wen, expressed confidence in TSMC's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38960732/amid-creeping-chinese-threat-taiwans-new-tech-minister-expresses-confidence-tsmc-can-guard-its-secre">ability to protect</a> its proprietary advanced technology as it expands overseas.
Despite the U.S. support, Taiwan&#8217;s Vice President-elect, Hsiao Bi-khim, emphasized the importance of Taiwan&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38638573/taiwans-vice-president-elect-calls-for-building-our-own-strengths-first-despite-us-support-amid-cris">self-strengthening</a> and not solely depending on international support.
Price Action: TSMC traded 1.1% lower at $184 in the after-hours trading at the time of writing, the company&#8217;s shares closed 0.4% higher at $186.04 in the regular session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro.</a>
