Tesla CEO Elon Musk's dispute with federal regulators is making investors nervous.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk's habit for sparring with federal securities regulators is making Wall Street nervous.
"I think it's an overhang on the stock," Oppenheimer analyst Colin Rusch said on CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Tuesday."There's really no benefit from this sort of activity."

But worries have also swirled around Musk's behavior, including his sometimes controversial comments on social media and in interviews.
