On May 3, we talked about a "Trump-proof" way to play China's exploding social media and e-commerce markets. That stock's already up a market-crushing 8%.
Well, I think the next global tech-trend play I've got to tell you about could do even better.
It's one of the "frontier" investment opportunities I've been so bullish on this year.
You can buy the company right here at home, but I think it's going to triple thanks to events taking place right now in one of the world’s hottest markets: India.
Every Investor Should Tap This Growth
With 1.3 billion residents, India is the globe's second-most-populous nation. And it could surpass China in as little as five years.
India logged 7% GDP growth in 2016's fourth quarter. That beat forecasts by 10%. Even if that were to slow by as much as 20%, India's economy would still be expanding twice as fast as that of the United States – but economists are predicting 7.2% growth in 2017.

While India has a rich history of economic and business growth, it's equally well-known for its "threat landscape." Corruption, crime, political instability, and terrorism all scare away many investors.
That's why I've searched high and low for a way to get in on India's ferocious tech growth – a way to get on the "sadak" to wealth – without exposing ourselves to those sorts of risks.
But that still offers hope of quick triple-digit gains.
And I've finally found it…
The "Digital India" Plan Could Be a License to Print Money
India signaled a major push into high tech when Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the United States in 2015, the first such trip by an Indian head of state in three decades.
He visited Silicon Valley to talk about his Di…
