Das geht aus dem jüngsten Küstenreport der bundesweit operierenden Maklerfirma Von ...

Over the past decade, many of the best stocks to invest in have been in the tech sector. Even with the current market turmoil, this will likely be the case over the long term.

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has been the role model for a host of electric vehicle (EV) start-ups.
