Electric car maker Tesla is preparing to go public, according to MSNBC. The IPO is expected any day so if you think this much maligned company has what it takes to deliver a return on your investment, get your broker on the horn. According to the article, this IPO would be the 1st US automaker to go public since Ford in 1956. Wow.
Tesla's IPO would follow the successful debut of lithium-ion battery maker A123 Systems, whose shares rallied 50 percent on their first day of trading on Sept 25. Analysts have said that the success of A123, the first green technology IPO this year, would encourage more venture capital-backed green companies to go public.
