The Secret Behind Finding the Next Tesla Inc Stock
Tamara Walsh -- a former Fool -- was the first bull who personally made the case to invest in Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA). It was 2011, and the company was valued at just $4 billion. "Silly Tamara," I though, "electric cars will never be profitable. And even if they are, they've got to compete against the Big Boys. How could they ever win?"
There were a lot of problems with my response -- the least of which is a 1,400% return I missed out on. But even bigger is the fact that I didn't reference what I have now come to think is the single greatest window into the soul of a company: it's mission statement.
