(Reuters) -Tesla shares clawed back from steep losses on Friday, as a war of words between CEO Elon Musk and U.S. President Donald Trump appeared to cool amid report that White House aides were scheduling a call to help broker peace.

For months, Tesla shareholders were tormented by Elon Musk’s role in the administration of President Donald Trump. But any relief brought by his formal government exit last week quickly turned to fear as the electric-vehicle maker’s chief executive traded barbs with his former boss.

Just like Tesla, Trump Media’s shares fell sharply on Thursday afternoon as Musk publicly sparred with the president and backed calls for his impeachment.
