Tesla stock (TSLA) climbed nearly 3% early Wednesday after the EV maker reported global electric vehicle deliveries that came in below Wall Street's low projections but produced more cars than expected.

Tesla said Wednesday it delivered 384,122 EVs in the second quarter, less than the 389,407 projected by Wall Street analysts tracked by Bloomberg consensus estimates. The company's deliveries for the period marked a 13% drop from the prior year but an increase from the 336,681 vehicles delivered in the first quarter.

Because things are not as bad as expected. Any other stock would have tanked on such bad news.
