Why the Best Electric Vehicle Stock Doesn’t Make Cars

Despite one of the worst years in automotive history, Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) shocked everyone by surging 300% higher from its April lows.

This brings their return from IPO up over 7,000%.

They have even surpassed the market cap of Toyota (NYSE:TM), one of the largest automotive manufacturers in the world.

Tesla's meteoric rise and the emergence of all-electric competitors like Rivian, Nikola, and Lordstown Motors have investors clamoring to get in early on the next big thing.

But the best electric vehicle stock to buy right now is none of the above.

In fact, this company doesn't even make cars.

Grab Your Share of the $2.2 Trillion Energy Revolution with These Four High-Tech Firms

I work with some of the most exciting small tech companies on the planet. And as many of you know, I've made it my business to be involved with the most cutting-edge high-tech advancements of our time.

That's why I can confidently tell you that nothing compares to the size and scope of the solar revolution – or the speed at which it's coming to us. In fact, it's going to be one of the biggest technological transformations of our lifetime.

It all comes down to basic science.

Every five days, the sun provides the Earth with as much energy as all the proven supplies of oil, coal, and natural gas on the entire planet.

And we are now riding a tremendous wave of advancements and new technology that could soon render these traditional means of generating electricity obsolete.

What's more, these revolutionary advances also provide savvy investors with a rare opportunity.

To put it bluntly, recent solar innovations promise to be every bit as monumental as when the world progressed from the horse and buggy to the automobile…

According to Bloomberg, the oncoming solar revolution will be worth $2.2 trillion in the years ahead. But it won't stop there.

This will be a multi-decade trend, creating incredible long- and short-term opportunities for those wanting to build life-changing wealth.

This is your chance to jump on board with the four companies that'll make the global shift possible in the first place…

I Found Four Big Investing Ideas (and a Lot More) on a 900-Mile Motorcycle Run

You know, I've been motorcycling for as long as I can remember.

Not only is doing so a great way to see the world, but I don't think there's a better way to discover the world's best profit plays and biggest opportunities. That's why I'm keen to "get out of my garage" and hit the road every chance I get.

Last week, my bride – that's what I call Noriko, my wife of 24 years – and I took off along the coastal roads in Washington and Oregon.

Past trips have been south of the border… in Europe… Japan… even in mainland China. But the past week was all about getting into America's backroads and the small coastal towns that dot our landscape.

My goal was twofold…

First, I wanted to see if the cultural values that make our nation so great are still there, and rediscover how life outside the media-driven big cities works.

And second, my wife and I wanted to relax away from the crush of the big cities that increasingly dominate our lives.

We succeeded wildly on both counts!

Three Big, Profit-Driving Trends I'm Watching for 2018

I made my case forcefully in last year's Forecast issue that 2017 would be…

1) a year of extraordinary profits despite overwhelming cynicism associated with one of the most contentious elections in U.S. history;

2) and that there would be far higher prices ahead, especially for three sectors: big technology, defense, and key medical providers.

That turned out to be well-founded advice, and we were spot on yet again…

I urged you to "get on board or get left behind" and suggested you prioritize "Global Challengers" for income and appreciation as a way to maximize profits.

Many of our recommendations took off like a rocket, some of which hit at least 100% and turned into free trades during the past 12 months. The S&P 500, by comparison, turned in only 18.66% over the same time frame.

A good number of our options plays, which I recommend as a more aggressive way to follow along with our recommendations, have done even better.

I see 2018 playing out much the same way: full of tremendous opportunities and life-changing wealth.

I think investors who keep these things in mind stand to make superior returns over the next 12 months and beyond...
