After years of dominating the global electric vehicle market, Tesla, Inc. was toppled by Chinese EV giant BYD in 2025. BYD outsold the Elon Musk-owned maker by over half a million vehicles last year.

BYD’s annual sales figures were released Friday, just one day after Tesla shared fourth quarter data showing the U.S. company’s vehicle sales declined some 16% in the last three months of the year and were down around 8% for all of 2025. While Tesla reports vehicle deliveries versus actual sales, the volume figure marks the second straight year of declines for the Tesla, which launched in 2003 and delivered its first vehicle in 2008.

Tesla reported delivering 1.64 million vehicles in 2025 against BYD’s sales of 2.26 million vehicles. Global electric vehicles sales were up over 20% in the first 11 months of 2025 and BYD says its sales for the year jumped by 28% over 2024.

Tesla saw a surge in sales in the third quarter of 2025 as U.S. buyers scrambled to make purchases before a long-running federal tax credit program worth $7,500 on new vehicles came to an end, but the rest of the year saw declining interest in the vehicles.

Sales dropped but Tesla still gaining value

In spite of the dismal EV sales figures, Tesla stock ended the year up some 11%, driven by investor confidence that the company’s other endeavors, which included developing fully autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots, bode well for Tesla’s future prospects.

“Investors are so focused on the future with Tesla that they are ignoring delivery numbers,” Dennis Dick, a trader at Triple D Trading, which owns Tesla shares, told Reuters on Friday. “It’s about Optimus, Robotaxi and physical AI.”

Back in October, Tesla unveiled new, cheaper models of its Model Y crossover SUV and Model 3 sedan, two of the world’s best-selling vehicles.

Tesla has long touted plans to bring cheaper EV models to market and the move may have been driven by the end of the federal EV tax credit program, nixed in President Donald Trump’s budget for fiscal year 2026, which began Oct. 1.

Public perception of Musk’s once-close relationship with the president, and his actions as the former head of the Department of Government Efficiency, have soured some consumers on the Tesla brand while competition from both domestic and international electric vehicle makers has eroded the company’s market lead.

Industry watchers also point to Tesla’s stale model offerings, and lack of interest in the company’s Cybertruck, as factors behind the brand’s fall from dominance.

Some analysts point to Musk’s close personal association with the Tesla brand as a plus for those who view his actions outside the company as positive, but it’s also one that can have adverse consequences if those activities are viewed by potential customers in a negative light.

“Tesla has played a pivotal role in accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles, but our findings show that Elon Musk’s personal involvement in Tesla’s brand appears to be polarizing, pushing many buyers to look elsewhere,” said Ginny Buckley, chief executive of Electrifying.com, per a Newsweek report earlier this year.

How GSA’s OneGov Is Attempting to Simplify Federal Tech Procurement

The General Services Administration has been making OneGov agreements with some of America’s biggest technology companies, including Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon Web Services, OpenAI and xAI.  OneGov, according to GSA, is intended to leverage the federal government’s collective spending power to standardize terms and pricing and streamline agencies’ access to vital IT tools.  In April 2025, Josh Gruenbaum, commissioner of GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service and a Wash100 awardee, called the procurement strategy a “big win” not just for government but for industry as well.  “We’re creating a more consistent, scalable and efficient way to buy technology—one that benefits agencies, [original equipment manufacturers] and taxpayers alike,” he said. “We

Marine Corps Unveils Drone Training Initiative

The U.S. Marine Corps has introduced a training and certification program to rapidly expand the number of qualified operators of small attack drones. What Is the Goal of the USMC Drone Training Program? The Department of War said Wednesday the initiative seeks to formalize training for operators of small attack drones, including Neros Archer and other first-person-view, or FPV, systems built from commercial off-the-shelf technology. The training program supports the department’s plan to deploy tens of thousands—and eventually hundreds of thousands—of attack drones across all service branches starting in March 2026. The framework, which builds on recent FPV drone competitions and

Home values in B.C.’s Lower Mainland are decreasing, and pricey properties are not immune.

The province’s top 10 most expensive residential properties, including ritzy mansions replete with pools and tennis courts and a private island acreage with a golf course, all fell in value in this year’s list.

Most of those homes are located in the Lower Mainland: eight are in Vancouver, one on the West Vancouver waterfront, and one a private Gulf Island.

B.C. Assessment, the Crown corporation that appraises properties, announced the 2026 property assessments in a news release Friday.

The assessments reflect market values as of July 1, 2025.

Notices will be mailed to property owners, and members of the public can also look up assessments on the B.C. Assessment website.

Top 3 most expensive B.C. properties in 2025

1. The Kitsilano abode of Lululemon founder Chip Wilson at 3085 Point Grey Rd., which has topped the list of the province’s most valuable homes since 2014, was assessed at $73,457,000 for 2025.

The seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom home decreased in value by 11 per cent over last year’s $82,664,000 assessment.

2. A 10-bedroom, 16-bathroom home at 4707 Belmont Ave. in Vancouver’s Point Grey neighbourhood has been valued at $69,878,000.

The home, overlooking Vancouver’s stunning Spanish Banks, decreased in value by 2.59 per cent.

3. Assessed at $57,096,000, James Island, a 311-hectare private island about a kilometre east of the Saanich Peninsula, is the third most valuable property in the province.

Previous real estate estate listings for the island showed the property includes a Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, white sand beaches and six cottages.

The acreage fell in value by 0.75 per cent — or $430,000.

B.C.’s three most valuable properties have remained unchanged in ranking since at least 2017.

Top values outside of the Lower Mainland

Aside from James Island, the top valued property outside of the Lower Mainland was an acreage in Nanoose Bay on Vancouver Island, about 20 kilometres northwest of Nanaimo. 1365 Dorcas Point Rd. was valued at $20,573,000, making it the 75th most expensive home in all of B.C.

The most expensive property in B.C.’s North was a $4,703,000 acreage at 6653 Lakeshore Dr. in the Peace River region, about 220 kilometres northeast of Prince George.

And in the Southern Interior, the priciest property was a single-family home valued at $14,771,000 in the District of Lake Country at 12990 Pixton Rd. It ranked No. 239 on B.C.’s list of 500 top valued homes.

Values decrease in Lower Mainland, vary elsewhere

B.C. Assessment said many homeowners in the Lower Mainland can expect some decreases in assessed value, ranging between -10 per cent to zero per cent, according to assessor Bryan Murao.

There are fewer changes and flatter values on Vancouver Island and in the Southern Interior, from -5 per cent to +5 per cent, while assessments in the North and the Kootenays can vary from -5 per cent to +15 per cent, Murao said in the release.

B.C. Assessment appraised more than 2.2 million homes in 2025, about a one per cent increase from 2025, with the value totalling $2.75 trillion, a decrease of almost 2.5 per cent from last year.

WATCH | Historic low for home sales in Greater Vancouver:

Greater Vancouver home sales drop to 25-year low

B.C. Real Estate Association chief economist Brendon Ogmundson tells CBC’s Stephen Quinn that there will be a 16 per cent drop in house sales in 2025 in the Greater Vancouver area, compared to 2024, and that while most markets in Canada and B.C. have recovered from the impacts of U.S. tariffs, it hasn’t yet happened in Vancouver.

Hasan Juma, a real estate agent with Oakwyn Realty, said in an interview that he had spoken to a number of homeowners already who were experiencing sticker shock, having seen their assessed value decrease.

He said the drop in average values in the Lower Mainland was expected among those in the real estate world, given analysts have said for months that it is a buyer’s market.

“It’s possible the gap gets larger between what a buyer is willing to pay and, you know, what a seller is willing to accept,” Juma said.

ORDER

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended (section 721), 50 U.S.C. 4565, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.  Findings.  (a)  There is credible evidence that leads me to believe that HieFo Corporation, a company organized under the laws of Delaware (HieFo) and controlled by a citizen of the People’s Republic of China, through the acquisition of the assets comprising the digital chips and related wafer design, fabrication, and processing businesses of EMCORE Corporation, a New Jersey corporation (Emcore Assets), which acquisition completed on April 30, 2024 (such acquisition, the Transaction), might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States; and

(b)  Provisions of law, other than section 721 and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), do not, in my judgment, provide adequate and appropriate authority for me to protect the national security in this matter.

Sec. 2.  Actions Ordered and Authorized.  On the basis of the findings set forth in section 1 of this order, considering the factors described in subsection (f) of section 721, as appropriate, and pursuant to my authority under applicable law, including section 721, I hereby order that:

(a)  The Transaction is hereby prohibited, and ownership by HieFo of any interest or rights in any of the Emcore Assets, whether effected directly or indirectly through HieFo, or through HieFo’s partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, or foreign person shareholders (collectively, Affiliates), is also prohibited.  For the purposes of sections 2(a), 2(b), and 2(c) of this order, the United States nationals on HieFo’s Board of Directors as of November 26, 2025, are not considered Affiliates of HieFo.

(b)  To effectuate this order, not later than 180 calendar days after the date of this order, unless such date is extended by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), HieFo shall, and shall ensure that its Affiliates, divest all interests and rights in the Emcore Assets, wherever located, including contracts, inventory, tangible property, parts, fixed assets, accounts receivable, permits, real property leased or owned by EMCORE Corporation, and intellectual property.  All actions by CFIUS referenced in this order may be conducted by the agencies designated by its Staff Chairperson and all obligations on HieFo or EMCORE Corporation are subject to any extensions of time, conditions, or exceptions as such CFIUS agencies determine are appropriate and will not impair the national security of the United States.

(c)  Immediately from the date of this order until such time as the divestment set forth in subsection (b) of this section (the Divestment) has been completed and verified to the satisfaction of CFIUS and CFIUS has communicated in writing to HieFo that the Divestment is complete, HieFo shall not, and shall ensure that its personnel does not, grant any access to the Emcore Assets or any non-public technical information, information technology systems, products, parts and components, books and records, or facilities in the United States of the Emcore Assets to any persons who are not personnel of HieFo, unless otherwise approved in writing by CFIUS.  Not later than 7 calendar days after the date of this order, or after notification from CFIUS, as applicable, HieFo shall put in place and maintain any measures or controls deemed necessary by CFIUS to ensure that the access prohibited under this subsection does not occur.

(d)  Until the Divestment has been completed and verified to the satisfaction of CFIUS and CFIUS has communicated in writing to HieFo that the Divestment is complete, unless otherwise approved in writing by CFIUS, HieFo shall not, and shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, dissolve, reorganize, or transfer any interest or rights in any of the Emcore Assets, or otherwise change its or their legal structure or relocate, transfer, or sell any physical, intangible, or financial assets in a manner that would materially impede or prevent HieFo or its Affiliates from complying with this order as determined by CFIUS. 

(e)  At any time prior to or upon CFIUS communicating in writing to HieFo that the Divestment is complete, CFIUS is authorized to require auditing of HieFo, at no expense to CFIUS, on terms it deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance with this order and any conditions imposed by CFIUS.

(f)  Immediately upon Divestment:

(i)   HieFo shall certify in writing to CFIUS that all steps necessary to fully and permanently effectuate the requirements of subsections (a) and (b) of this section, including any conditions imposed by CFIUS pursuant to subsections (b) and (l) of this section, have been completed in accordance with this order; and

(ii)  HieFo shall certify in writing to CFIUS that, as part of the Divestment, HieFo and its Affiliates have destroyed or transferred all intellectual property associated with the Emcore Assets in their possession or control, including copies thereof, that HieFo and its Affiliates are required to divest pursuant to subsection (b) of this section.  CFIUS is authorized to require auditing of HieFo and its Affiliates, at no expense to CFIUS, on terms CFIUS deems appropriate in order to ensure that such destruction or transfer of intellectual property is complete.

(g)  HieFo shall not, and shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, complete a sale or transfer under this order to any third party:

(i)   until HieFo notifies CFIUS in writing of the intended buyer or transferee; and

(ii)  unless 30 calendar days have passed from the notification in subsection (g)(i) of this section and CFIUS has not issued an objection to HieFo.  Among the factors CFIUS may consider in reviewing the proposed sale or transfer are whether the buyer or transferee is a United States citizen or is owned by United States citizens; has or has had a direct or indirect contractual, financial, familial, employment, or other close and continuous relationship with HieFo or its Affiliates, or officers or employees of HieFo or its Affiliates; and can demonstrate a willingness and ability to support compliance with this order and any conditions imposed by CFIUS.  In addition, CFIUS may consider whether the proposed sale or transfer would threaten to impair the national security of the United States or undermine the purpose of this order, and whether the sale effectuates, to CFIUS’s satisfaction and in its discretion, the Divestment. 

(h)  From the date of this order until HieFo provides a certification of the Divestment to CFIUS pursuant to subsection (f) of this section, HieFo shall certify to CFIUS on a weekly basis that it and its Affiliates are in compliance with this order and any conditions imposed by CFIUS and shall include a description of efforts to effectuate the Divestment and a timeline for projected completion of remaining actions.

(i)  Any transaction or other instrument entered into or method employed for the purpose of, or with the effect of, evading or circumventing this order is prohibited.

(j)  Without limitation on the exercise of authority by any agency under other provisions of law, CFIUS is authorized to implement measures it deems necessary and appropriate to verify and enforce compliance with this order and any conditions imposed by CFIUS.  For purposes of verifying and enforcing compliance with this order and any conditions imposed by CFIUS, HieFo shall permit employees of the United States Government as designated by CFIUS access, on reasonable notice to HieFo, to all premises and facilities of HieFo and its Affiliates located in the United States, including those of the Emcore Assets:

(i)    to inspect and copy any books, ledgers, accounts, correspondence, memoranda, and other records and documents in the possession or under the control of HieFo or its Affiliates that concern any matter relating to this order;

(ii)   to inspect or audit any information systems, networks, hardware, software, data, records, communications, or property in the possession or under the control of HieFo or its Affiliates that concern any matter relating to this order; and

(iii)  to interview officers, employees, or agents of HieFo, or its Affiliates, concerning any matter relating to this order.

(k)  CFIUS shall conclude its verification procedures pursuant to subsection (j) of this section within 90 calendar days after the certification of the Divestment is provided to CFIUS pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and shall communicate in writing to HieFo when it has found that the Divestment is complete.

(l)  Without limitation on the exercise of authority by any agency under other provisions of law, and until such time as the Divestment is completed and verified to the satisfaction of CFIUS, CFIUS is further authorized to impose conditions or implement measures in connection with this order, the Divestment, and the Transaction as it deems necessary and appropriate to mitigate risk to the national security of the United States arising from the Transaction, including measures available to it under section 721 and its implementing regulations, which include the remedies available for violations of any order, agreement, or condition entered into or imposed under section 721.
