Smart investors are about to grow much, much richer over the next several years.
It doesn’t matter whether you have a lot now....or just a little. The opportunities are so numerous, the profits will be so powerful, that you can truly earn life-changing wealth.
I’m not kidding.
I like a good laugh better than most folks, but there are two things I don’t kid about. My golf game and my money. So please hear me out.
Most investors look back fondly at the 1995–2000 Internet bubble period. Especially those who followed our advice and cashed out of their tech stocks in early 2001 or sooner.
Investors made trillions in that time period. And sure, some of that did go to money heaven in the crash—but I personally know tons of people who banked enough profits to change their lives.
So why am I bringing this up now? Just to rub it in?
Nope. I’m here to tell you that the trillions in wealth created then will be considered puny compared to the new wealth about to be created in the years ahead from transformational changes totally reshaping the world we live in.
Some people will be blindsided by these changes. But not you and me. We’ll be earning BIG profits instead.
Let’s talk about one of the transformational changes I’m most excited about and why now is the right time and the right price to buy one of the key players.
RFID catches a Wal-Mart tailwind
The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) space is set to rocket ahead over the next six to12 months.
Personally, I find the story so powerful that I’m a founding investor in Alien Technology, a pure play in this sector. It’s a private company now with an IPO in its future.
And the fact that I’ve put my own money into this idea from the get-go should tell you something about how strongly I feel about the wealth-building potential of the RFID wave.
In case you’re unfamiliar with this technology, let me briefly explain its highlights. Then we’ll get to the good stuff—why and how we’ll make a ton of money together.
RFID technology uses transmitters to “read” information on a data chip equipped with an imbedded antenna.
Depending on use and need, these chips can be read from a range of up to 300 feet.
These data tags store much more information than bar codes. And RFID systems can read cases stacked underneath others on a pallet — making it faster, easier and cheaper to conduct an inventory. No line-of-sight needed.
Almost any system where there is physical inventory or movement can now be tracked automatically — without any human interaction.
If you have ever zipped through a crowded toll plaza using an E-ZPass, you know how much more productive RFID electronic collection is than the human kind.
Now imagine the same efficiency in...
...tracking products through the supply chain.
...true just-in-time inventory management.
...identifying security breaches and limiting access; and much, much
more.
Take a “stroll” through the stories on the RFID Journal Web site, and you’ll see what I mean.
A German lumber company, tracking logs from forest to mill using RFID tags in plastic nails...banks tracking cash from vault to ATMs... hospitals using RFID tags to improve patient care.
Airports streamlining their luggage systems... a law firm that doubled its accuracy in quickly locating files... a golf cart manufacturer, which cut production time nearly in half... and on and on.
The benefits can be enormous to virtually any industry.
And as costs continue to drop—and the price of a basic tag is expected to drop from 20 cents today to 5 cents in four years—we’ll see increasingly rapid adoption.
In fact, we may get to—and then well below—that 5-cent mark much sooner than most folks think. It’s all about scale. The bigger the quantities, the lower the cost per tag.
And with the world’s biggest retailer, Wal-Mart, pushing RFID like some new religion, huge investing profits are just a matter of time.
How to Profit Now
The company I’m recommending to my ChangeWave members is a spin-off from a firm we owned once before as an RFID play.
We sold that stock in February 2005—for a 50% gain in seven months—when our research showed that widespread RFID adoption would take a little longer to play out.
Well now we’re back. RFID is ready for prime time. And while we wait for the really pure plays—like Alien Technology—to come public, we can buy this stock now...
...and bank 75% gains, or so, by this time next year. Thank you, Wal-Mart.
So why is Wal-Mart so into RFID tags? And why is this such a big deal?
Management has been a big proponent of the technology for quite some time now, telling its suppliers to get with the program or get lost. Wal-Mart mandated RFID tags for its 100 top suppliers in 2005.
And they love the results they’ve seen so far—a 16% increase in shelf stocking efficiency. That means a big improvement in “out of stock” problems—and literally billions in added sales.
So it’s no wonder that Wal-Mart has told its next 300 suppliers to comply, as well.
Couple that with the recent introduction of the next generation of RFID chips, and this is the right time to start loading up on the RFID wave.
RFID sales will really spike in 2007—and continue rising for a very long run.
And the company I’m recommending you buy right now is a key player in the supply chain management game with RFID and data collection systems at its core. It’s the right time and right price to buy this stock.
Wal-Mart is spearheading the move into RFID tags; and when Wal-Mart speaks, the business world listens.
The RFID wave is going to sweep along all the big retailers... the Department of Defense is deploying RFID to manage its massive supply chain... plus, more and more pharmaceutical companies are turning to RFID tags to track their prescription drugs as they move from place to place.
RFID chips may not be glamorous—but they can make you rich.
