Tesla stock was recently down 1.5% as broader markets moved lower.
Some Tesla bulls have been eager for CEO Elon Musk to put someone else in the Twitter hot seat, giving him more time to focus on running his car company. In a tweet Friday, he named Linda Yaccarino to the job and said he would transition to other roles.
Separately, Chinese regulators said Tesla would update software in more than 1 million vehicles in that country to reduce collision risk.
