COHU made the list. These stocks soared even as the companies lost money — here’s why that’s not as crazy as it sounds Published: Jan 18, 2020 12:41 p.m. ET The monetary forces that have helped feed the bull market are so strong that scores of stocks have risen significantly over the past year even as the companies themselves have been losing money.

In a Wall Street Journal article, James Mackintosh called Tesla TSLA, -0.58% and General Electric GE, -0.25% “the two most valuable loss-making companies,” after Tesla’s shares had doubled in three months and GE’s stock had risen 44%. “The proportion of U.S.-listed companies losing money for three years reached its highest last year in data stretching back to the late 1990s,” Mackintosh wrote, citing data compiled by Andrew Lapthorne, global head of quantitative research at Société Générale.
