4 Electric Vehicle Stocks to Buy Before Sales Accelerate in 2023
For Years the Coming Electric Vehicle Boom Has Been Just Beyond the Horizon
From generous tax credits for electric vehicles to the eventual outright banning of cars with internal combustion engines, there are a number of reasons why electric vehicles will become more prevalent. Investors that can identify those companies that will emerge as electric vehicle leaders should be handsomely rewarded.
Below are four companies involved in the electric vehicle industry whose stock should return outsized gains in the years to come.
The world’s most popular electric vehicle company has been in a downturn that’s lasted for over a year; the stock is down 66% from its November 2021 highs, thanks to a combination of disappointing operating results and a market that turned from growth stocks to value stocks. If one believes that Tesla can continue to grow revenues while simultaneously fending off competitors, the current valuation is attractive and could provide outsized returns when the market recovers.
Shares of Tesla closed trading today at $116.99 per share, down -2.32% on the day. YTD, TSLA stock is up +8.22%.
