Best High Tech Stocks To Own Right Now

tags:SHBI,NHI,RMP,

In this segment from the Motley Fool Money podcast, host Chris Hill and senior Motley Fool analysts Jason Moser, Matt Argersinger, and Ron Gross talk Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), which delivered some painful numbers last week. But as Foolish investors have often seen, the guidance ahead often outweighs the quarter that's in the books, and what CEO Elon Musk had to say about where his company is headed was all optimistic. Wall Street bought in.

The Fools consider the electric-car innovator's situation, and offer up a thought about a couple of less obvious threats to its success and share price.

A full transcript follows the video.

This video was recorded on Aug. 3, 2018.

Chris Hill: Shares of Tesla up more than 15% this week despite a second quarter report that featured Tesla's worst loss ever. Ron, they lost more than $700 million, but the confidence that profits are just around the corner really seems to be there.

Ron Gross: I guess so. Investors were focused on, they hit the 5,000-sedan goal, they say they're going to be able to up it to their 6,000-sedan goal. They said they would not need to raise more cash, which I think was a big deal. Investors calmed down after he said that. He said they would be profitable in the second half of 2018. Get this -- Musk expects Tesla will record a profit in all subsequent quarters. Now, who wouldn't want to be a shareholder of that?
