Ok, my money is on Tesla. So let's watch this race. At Friday close,
WTI Jan 2018 $51.21
Tesla (TSLA) $351
Exxon (XOM) $79.92
Let's which one lands the biggest return by year end.
We're probably all pulling for Tesla, but this could be fun to watch.
The broader relevance here goes to how that financial markets allocate capital. I threw in Exxon so we could compare a stock to a stock, and not just to a commodity. Should the markets be pouring more money into EV makers than oil? We shall see.
So just to clarify - we all play for browny points and have a virtual $10.000 to invest - the race is won by whoever makes most money by closing of last trading day of 2017 in NYSE?
Then all my money is on TSLA (I expect TSLA to be between $380 to $400 - depending on how the ramp goes I could be very wrong, but I don't want to jinx it...). I expect WTI to be below $60 and XOM between $70 and $90
On a different note: I really liked the slide in the BNEF presentation that showed $79bn of dept in Chapter 11 for US oil and gas alone (since 2015) - that's a ton of money being wasted in fossil fuel. Keep that in mind when betting on XOM ;-)
