Tesla Inc. shares on Monday were poised to end at a fresh two-year low, with shares of other electric-vehicle makers also underperforming the broader equity market as worries about China’s COVID-19 lockdowns re-emerged and oil futures prices dropped to their lowest level since January.

and fourth worst in the Nasdaq 100

also underperformed the broader market. In contrast, shares of General Motors Co.

Tesla’s underperformance as compared with the broader indexes holds on a monthly and yearly basis as well. The stock is down more than 25% so far in November and 52% this year.
If the trend continues, this would be the worst yearly performance for the stock on record.
The S&P has lost about 17% year to date and has clawed back to a 2% gain so far in November.
