Hot Clean Energy Stocks To Buy For 2019


While the past year has been very up and down for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) investors, anyone who bought shares of the electric car, solar panel, and energy storage company before April 2017 — or more recently, since April 2018 — has enjoyed market-beating returns. But with a market capitalization above $60 billion at recent prices, investors seem to have already banked heavily that the company will accomplish much bigger ambitions, based on the current valuation. 

And while investors shouldn’t count Elon Musk and Tesla out, it’s never wise to put all your hopes — and money — on a single company. We asked three investors who write for The Motley Fool — one of whom is a Tesla shareholder — for alternative ideas — stocks they think could put Tesla’s future returns to shame. They put together compelling arguments for Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ:CLNE), Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B), and Codexis, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDXS).

(Nasdaq: TWTR) has permanently banned Alex Jones and his website Infowars from its social media platform. Jack Dorsey’s firm said that Jones had repeatedly violated Twitter’s content policy. The announcement comes shortly after Jones heckled Dorsey outside of congressional hearings about online election interference, social media and political bias, and censorship. Jones had also live-streamed a very heated interaction with CNN reporter Oliver Darcy. Alphabet’s (Nasdaq: GOOGL) YouTube, Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL), and Facebook Inc. (Nasdaq: FB) have also banned Jones in recent weeks. The price of Bitcoin is off more than 20% in the last two days.

(NYSE: GS) may abandon its plan to launch a trading desk around the cryptocurrency sector. Goldman has since publicly said that no decision is final. However, the jitters have fueled yet another panicked sell-off in a very volatile sector.
