A company called S&P looked at how another company, Tesla, is run and found that the boss, Elon Musk, has too much control. This can be risky for the company if something happens to him.

1. The title of the article is misleading and sensationalist. It implies that S&P has downgraded Tesla's credit rating, which is false. The agency only lowered its governance score, not its credit rating, which remains at 'BBB'. This creates a negative impression on Tesla and its performance without providing accurate information to the readers.

Neutral

Explanation: The article discusses the concerns over Elon Musk's dominance in Tesla and how it affects the company's governance score. It also mentions the downgrade of Tesla's governance score by S&P but retains its 'BBB' credit rating. The overall tone of the article is neutral as it presents both positive (solid market share, liquidity) and negative aspects (key-person risk, lack of board effectiveness) of Tesla's situation.
