Chris’ note: Symmetry is attractive in art and architecture. But when it comes to speculating, it’s for suckers. Instead, you want to hunt for setups with extreme asymmetry. You want the upside potential to outweigh the downside risk.
It’s the core philosophy at our Strategic Trader advisory. Headed up by colleague Nomi Prins and her co-editor, John Pangere, it’s delivered gains of 2,174%… 2,805%… and even 4,942% on small grubstakes.
Now, they have a new setup in their sights. It’s a tiny Oregon-based firm. And it holds the key to a breakthrough fuel source that will transform the U.S. energy grid.
But Nomi and John don’t plan to play it by recommending regular shares in this company. Instead, they’re using an under-the-radar asymmetric strategy that’s long been the favorite of billionaire investors such as Warren Buffett and Carl Icahn.
Unlimited upside… capped downside risk.
That’s been our mantra at our Strategic Trader advisory since we launched in 2019.
Our goal is to recommend asymmetric speculations that turn dimes into dollars.
If you’ve been with us for some time, you’ll know all about the importance of asymmetric speculations. But for newer readers, these are setups where small stakes can deliver big wins. I’m talking about gains of 1,000% and up… with stakes as small as $100.
And that’s what we’ve done…
Since we launched, we’ve given paid-up subscribers the chance to close out gains as high as 2,174%… 2,805%… and 4,942%.
Not all our gains are measured in quadruple digits, of course.
Yesterday, for instance, we sent out an alert on a trade that’s up 114% over the past 10 months. And we recommended our readers take some profits off the table.
Of course, we also take our share of losing trades. But the winners have more than made up for the losers.
Since launching, we’ve made 57 recommendations. And we’ve recorded an annual compound return of 30%. That’s roughly three times the return you would have made investing in the S&P 500.
So, today, I’ll show you how we did it… why it’s such a powerful strategy… and how you can use it to make gains even in a bear market.
Then I’ll tell you about the next speculation on our radar. It’s a chance to earn a 17x return on one of the most exciting energy breakthroughs of our lifetimes.
Although most folks don’t know it yet, it’s about to transform the U.S. energy grid.
Billionaires’ Secret
At Strategic Trader, we focus on a little-known trading vehicle we call a “power share.”
Companies issue power shares alongside the regular shares most folks own in their brokerage accounts.
And they’re popular among billionaire investors. They use power shares to force massive wins out of the market.
Warren Buffett, for example, used them to bag a gain of $2 billion on Goldman Sachs after the 2008 crash.
Michael Burry – the investor Christian Bale played in the movie The Big Short – and Carl Icahn also use them to as a speculation.
And if the company does well, they allow you to acquire its shares for a fraction of the price you’d normally pay.
The best way to show you how power shares work is by way of a concrete example. So, let’s look at the winning trade we recommended on electric vehicle (EV) charging company Blink Charging.
Unstoppable Trend
The rise of EVs is inevitable…
More and more people are buying them. Automakers are constantly introducing newer models. And many of them – including Ford, Jaguar, and General Motors – are phasing out gas guzzlers altogether.
But there’s a problem… There isn’t enough infrastructure to service them.
For internal combustion engine cars and trucks to go mainstream, we needed better infrastructure to make long-distance trips possible. That meant building out our highway system. It also meant creating a network of gas stations and convenience stores.
Today, there are more than 168,000 retail stores in the U.S. that sell gas. It’s tough to drive more than 100 miles without seeing a gas station. But that’s not the case for EV charging stations…
There are about 130,000 EV charging stations across the country. That’s well short of the estimated 3 million charging stations needed by 2030, according to S&P Global.
That’s why, in February 2019, we recommended the Blink Charging power shares to play the buildout of EV infrastructure.
At first, this trade didn’t go as planned. At one point, we were showing a loss of more than 80% on the Blink Charging power shares.
But power shares have a way of exploding higher. Take a look…
That’s why we always say patience is key. A year later, this trade went from being an 80% loser to a 2,805% winner.
And we know some of our readers did even better. They wrote to tell us they’d bought into these power shares below our official $1 entry price.
And you don’t always have to wait a year for these trades to pay off…
4x the Gains of Regular Shares
Last July, we recommended power shares in a company called Evolv Technologies.
It makes touchless weapons detection systems. This upends the century-old walkthrough metal detector. And investors have been taking notice.
Since our recommendation, Evolv’s stock is up about 30%. But our power shares are up 114%.
That’s nearly 2x the return you’d have made by buying Evolv shares directly. And we’re still in this trade.
We’ve recommended our readers sell enough of their power shares to recover their initial stake and take a “Free Ride.” This is now a zero-risk trade with plenty of upside potential left.
That’s an impressive performance in any kind of market. It’s even more impressive given the hellscape of a bear market we’ve just been through.
If I’d told you last July, in the middle of the worst of the carnage, that you could bag a 100%-plus gain over the next 10 months you probably wouldn’t have believed me.
It’s why I’m so excited about our next power shares recommendation. We believe it’s a chance to 17x your money over the next 2.5 years.
Breakthrough Fuel Source
You see, I’ve discovered how to use power shares to profit from a new energy source called “SMR.”
It’s 2 million times more powerful than oil. And it’s 3 million times more powerful than coal.
And a new energy bill out of Washington is set to unleash a $4 trillion torrent of government cash into the SMR sector.
I believe it will deliver a massive payday for early investors. But you must position yourself before May 12.
That’s why, last night, I aired a special online presentation all about it.
I covered Bill S.1111, which will send a flood of government cash into this breakthrough fuel.
I also looked at how SMR was kept under government wraps for 68 years… and why it’s finally being released into the commercial sector.
Now is the best time to take advantage of this megatrend. It’s going to play a pivotal role in the economy and in the race to meet energy demand.
So, if you missed it last night, make sure to catch the replay here. It’s free to view. And it could be the best investment decision you make this year.
