It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Just 12 percent of Americans, or about 1 out of every 8, is looking to buy an all-electric vehicle. Given the tax incentives of up to $7,500 to buy an EV, and with government mandates and projections for half of all car sales to be EVs within a decade, that's quite a disconnect between industry expectations and market demand. That may be why Tesla Motors (TSLA) is struggling. The automaker's most recent earnings were lackluster… and the company has been on a price-cutting spree so far this year. Given the rise of alternatives to Tesla EVs over the past few years, it's possible that this trend has become saturated. That's especially true given the additional charging and electrical infrastructure needed to add long-distance utility to EVs. That suggests that traders may be able to ride a wave lower in EV and related stocks in the months ahead. And that long-term buyers may want to hold off on plans for buying shares in the space as long as there's a price war. Now here's the rest of the news: Sponsored Content The Electricity Revolution Is Here — Don't Be Left Behind! A largely unknown and untapped energy resource is about to be unlocked on a global scale, thanks to a tiny Silicon Valley firm. With the help of artificial intelligence, this company has discovered how to exploit an incredible trillion-dollar source of power that could make all other forms — from gas and coal through oil, to wind, hydropower and solar fusion — look like a small fry in comparison! Just one year's worth alone would generate 5X as much fuel than Earth's largest existing oil field — making its potential profits hard for investors to ignore. Watch the full presentation here.
