 When it comes to Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA), I think many investors and most of the Street have lost sight of a few important points. Most critically, they don't realize that Nikola stock can soar even if the company does not, on its own, revolutionize fuel-cell and battery technology. Nevertheless, I believe that investors should wait for a better entry point before buying Nikola.Source: Stephanie L Sanchez / Shutterstock.com As I've pointed out previously, there will be meaningful demand for fuel-cell trucks from many companies that want to show that they care about the environment in general and climate change in particular. Additionally, in certain places, like California and Europe, governments are likely to mandate the use of zero-emission trucks.And it makes sense for battery-electric trucks to be used for relatively short-distance tasks in areas where many people live and/or work. In those situations, the trucks' short range will not be an issue, while their lack of pollution will be an important asset.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsThere aren't many companies making "green," full-size trucks now. After performing extensive research on the sector, I've only heard of several such companies, including Toyota (NYSE:TM), Hyundai, Workhorse (NASDAQ:WKHS), and Lightning Systems which is partnering with Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG). * 7 Hot Stocks to Buy on Robinhood Now Given the relative lack of competition in the "green truck" space, Nikola can succeed -- and Nikola stock can sur

 The sell-off in Nikola Corporation (NASDAQ: NKLA) since the Hindenburg Research report accusing the company of being an "intricate fraud built on dozens of lies" took a breather on Friday. Investors must now decide if the fraud allegations and the departure of chairman Trevor Milton is a long-term buying opportunity or if the worst is yet to come for the stock.The Bull Case: Earlier this week, Cowen analyst Jeffrey Osborne defended Nikola. Osborne said investors should understand that the optics of Milton's departure are terrible for the stock in the near term, but the resignation will help minimize distractions in the longer term."We believe Steve Girsky at the helm of the Board and Mark Russell and Kim Brady controlling the communications and narrative from management will set a more measured and less promotional tone with investors," Osborne wrote in a note.Osborne said he has known the Nikola team for nearly three years and he doesn't believe the company is a fraud. However, investors should understand it will take the company some time to build back investor trust.Osborne said Nikola's partnership with General Motors Company (NYSE: GM) was a major milestone for the company, and Cowen is anticipating production of Nikola's battery electric vehicles to begin in the fourth quarter of 2021.The Bear Case: Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives downgraded Nikola and said there are two reasons why risk for the stock is to the downside.First, Milton was the visionary for the company, and his departure changes the story moving forwar

Topic: Comedy
For 12 years I was part of a theatre company that wrote and produced our own comedy shows with lots of songs. We still get together, and this year I wrote a parody song about Justin Trudeau using the opening song from "Hamilton."
Foolishly, I decided to make a "distributed choir" video with 10 singers performing the song. While we got a great result with lots of harmonies and other fun, boy was it a lot of work to direct and edit this. That said, here it is -- I hope you enjoy it, and even share it if you do.

 Zillow Group Inc. raised on Friday its outlook for home price growth over the next year, as sales and prices have stayed strong through the summer given increasingly short inventory and continued strong demand. The online real estate services company said it expects adjusted home prices to increase 1.2% from August to November. From August 2020 to August 2021, Zillow now expects adjusted home prices to rise 4.8%, up from a previous forecast of a 3.8% increase. The raised price outlook comes despite expectations for adjusted home sales to peak this fall and "gradually decline" through 2021, although sales volumes overall are expected to remain above pre-pandemic levels throughout this year and next. Zillow's Class C shares, which were little changed in premarket trading, have more than doubled (up 112.9%) year to date, while the S&P 500 has inched up 0.5%.
