Elon Musk acted like a 'little baby' and was 'almost in tears' on Tesla's 'terrible' earnings call, analyst says

• Financial analyst Kevin Paffrath criticized Elon Musk's comments on Tesla's recent earnings call.
• He said Musk blamed the EV maker's struggles on economic factors instead of "coming up with a plan."
• Tesla's third-quarter results fell short of analysts' expectations.
