Summary
Tesla is the most divisive company on the stock market, and it’s not close. Like most highly polarized topics, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. To bridge that gap, Motley Fool Contributor Brian Feroldi, who is long Tesla shares, joins Industry Focus Host Nick Sciple, who is short Tesla via put options, to break down the facts surrounding the company and the reasoning behind their positions. We hope this discussion helps listeners form their own, independent conclusions about the stock.
