| Dear Readers, No stock is more polarizing than Tesla right now. It may well be the most controversial company in history. But while your opinion of the company may rest on either side of the grand spectrum, Tesla's stock performance has been undeniable. The Elon Musk-helmed automaker has skyrocketed more than 200% over the last six months, and started 2020 on a 112% tear. Proponents will tell you that Tesla is in pole position to win the electric-vehicle race set to define the auto industry's future. Skeptics will tell you that Musk is a snake oil salesman coasting on his genius reputation and bamboozling unwitting investors. Business Insider did some digging on either side of the debate. In the bull camp is renowned strategist Tom Lee, who thinks Tesla's surge is totally explainable. He's even made it one of his top picks of 2020 — despite its already-torrid performance so far.

He told us he's steering clear, and prefers investing in "boring" companies. It's an approach that's worked swimmingly for him: the fund he manages has outperformed 98% over the past five years.
