Companies to Watch: Stitch Fix soars, Boeing may get major order, Tesla may have had strong month

Here are the companies Yahoo Finance is watching today.

A big beat at Stitch Fix (SFIX). The clothing delivery company turned a profit last quarter, despite many analysts predicting a loss, and active clients soared 17% year-over year. Stitch Fix also boosted its full year guidance.

Boeing (BA) is reportedly working on one of its largest orders ever. Bloomberg says the aerospace giant is in talks to deliver upwards of 100 wide-body jets, like the 787 Dreamliner and 777, to airlines in China. That could come with a $30 billion price tag. However, the trade war is complicating the negotiations, and no deal is imminent.

Things may be looking up for Elon Musk and Tesla (TSLA). Morgan Stanley says the electric car maker likely sold nearly 3 times as many vehicles last month as its rivals. That would be a big jump from a year ago. Tesla doesn't report monthly sales figures and has been struggling to hit production and delivery goals as it burns through cash.

Prominent Facebook (FB) investors want CEO Mark Zuckerberg to give up his role as chairman. This comes as the FTC was granted the rights to launch an investigation on the social-networking company for its monopolistic practices. Investors say more than two-thirds of outside shareholders support a proposal to make the chairman role an independent position.

Beyond Meat (BYND) is reporting earnings after the closing bell today. After pricing at $25 a share, the stock surged a whopping 310% since its IPO. In the same time, the broader market has fallen about 3%, and like its peers Uber and Lyft, Beyond Meat is not yet a profitable company.
