Who Would You Rather? Twitter Inc (TWTR) Or Tesla Motors Inc (TSLA)

Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) has done incredibly well since the beginning of this year, as the stock price went by more than 30% during this period. All of the success was mainly due to a very successful earnings report in January. On the other hand, Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) had a bad year so far with stock price dropping by more than 18% since the beginning of 2015. Some reports emerged that Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA)’s $5 billion gigafactory construction has slowed down, which dropped its stock price by around 3% on Friday. Fast Money traders Brian Kelly, Tim Seymour and Dan Nathan talked on CNBC about which stock would they rather among Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) and Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA).

Kelly said that he would prefer Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) stock over Tesla Motors Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA), since he feels that Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) will do pretty well in short to medium term.

He added that Twitter has multiple things right the last few months.

“The Twitter. […] Only reason why you hold Tesla is if you believe that they are going to be able to revolutionize the utility grid here in the US. So to me its more of a venture capital type of play. [..] Twitter in the very short term, short to medium term has a much better chance of actually making money. I have said it before, they need to do one thing right. They have done multiple things right. Its up $46 – $47, I probably just wait to see if it fill back that earnings gap. But I would much rather Twitter than Tesla,” Kelly said.
