My wife and I have become obsessed with a reality TV show that is part entertainment and part fright show.
Let me explain.
I haven’t watched a reality show in maybe a decade and had no intention of ever doing so again.
But when Tracy recently suggested we try an episode of Botched, I decided to give it a try. I have to say that I was quickly hooked.
In each episode, patients seek help from two renowned doctors to correct cosmetic surgeries that went awry – hence the name Botched.
As a veteran tech investor, I couldn’t help but wonder if there was a better process for many of those patients to avoid ending up on the show in the first place.
Since the cosmetic surgery market is on its way to being worth some $43.9 billion, you can bet I was determined to find out.
July 4 is one of my favorite holidays, and living in D.C., the excitement is intensified as a huge parade marches through the city and the night concludes at the National Mall with fireworks.
Living in Washington, D.C., it’s good to see that COVID-19 cases, which peaked on April 30, continue to decline. As a result, restaurants, retail stores, and some barbershops have started to open in a limited capacity.
But that reopening isn’t happening everywhere.
There are still thousands of new cases daily across the United States and many states that have started to open back up such as Texas, California, and Florida continue to see a rise in new COVID-19 cases.
If you just looked at it from a strictly financial standpoint, you’d conclude that landlords have little reason to improve loyalty with their tenants.
After all, rents for homes and apartments actually increased by 2.8% in this year’s first quarter as occupancy rates rose to 95.5%.
Here’s the thing. The first few months of this year were basically a disaster, but savvy landlords know that things can turn at any moment. The fact is, we may see a softening in the months ahead.
In other words, this is the time for landlords to get proactive.
And that’s just where Modern Message comes into play. This is a sleek online and mobile app that landlords use to build customer loyalty.
It already serves an amazing 1.8 million residents in more than 5,000 communities in all but one U.S. state.
If you want to make a lot of money as a tech investor, there’s a new Silicon Valley acronym you absolutely need to know about.
And I can understand what you may be thinking. There are already too many buzzwords in the tech world. Why learn a new one?
That’s a fair point. But this term helped send shares of a cloud-centric growth firm up 29%. No, not in a year or even a quarter – in a single session.
Don’t worry if you never heard of the term ZPA. It’s been considered a fairly obscure part of the tech economy – until now.
But the firm that pioneered this lucrative niche is charting traffic growth that is just off the charts, rising 1,000% in a single quarter.
Life has changed significantly in the face of the coronavirus pandemic, and the need to adapt has created a new normal.
For example, I can’t remember the last time I physically walked into a grocery store. Since the coronavirus, all I’ve been doing is loading up an app, selecting what I want, and waiting for my groceries to be delivered right to my front door at the time of my choosing.
And it’s not just online ordering that is expanding during this time.
From working at home through Zoom meetings to video conferences with your doctor, accessing a reliable technological infrastructure with high speeds to keep everyone connected is more important than ever.
No matter how you slice it, Harvey Mackey’s book is bona fide classic.
After all, “How to Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive,” is considered to be a motivational tour de force.
Yes, it was written for salespeople. But the process of success can be applied to any field. No wonder it has sold well over 5 million copies around the world since being released 26 years ago.
Turns out, there is a new way to swim with the sharks. Actually, in this case, it really is just one “shark.” But it’s a biggie with huge profit potential for savvy tech investors.
See, Kevin O’Leary is a host of the popular show Shark Tank about budding entrepreneurs pitching their companies to seasoned experts.
What most folks don’t know is that O’Leary’s “day job” involves investing in publicly traded web-related firms.
I don’t know about you but I love being able to put the entire “convergence economy” in the palm of my hand.
When you hold a semiconductor made by the firm I have in mind, it’s like grabbing cash from several breakout fields that are growing like weeds – all at the same time.
Here’s the thing; Wall Street and the media still talk about technology as though it were composed of standalone sectors. For example, chips and software.
But we’re not most investors. We know that, led by American innovation, the world has passed the tech tipping point. That’s something the coronavirus panic made very clear.
And that spells big money for savvy investors who know how to connect all the dots embedded in the overlapping concentric rings of technology I call the convergence economy.
Today, I want to reveal a stock that gives us access to four main parts of the convergence economy with more than $13 trillion in economic impact.
Let me show you three catalysts that will help it double from here…
