PreMarket Prep Recap For July 2: A Tesla Bull And Tesla Bear Walk Into A Bar

On Tuesday's PreMarket Prep, Joel and Dennis were joined by Gene Munster, managing partner at Loup Ventures, and Nic Chahine of Create Income With Options Spreads. The two offered competing views on Tesla Motors Inc TSLA.

Munster: "The traditional automotives make a lot of their money on parts whereas something like Tesla, because it doesn’t have as many parts to break, that’s not how they make their money. They make their money on software. The trap here is if you look at this as a traditional car company, I think you need to look at this as a computer on wheels and an autonomy play, and then the pieces start to fall into place."

Chahine: "If you're long Tesla today, that doesn't you should be long Tesla forever."
