As promised folks, we've got some great news for all of you today, but first let me lay the ground work for what's to come. We think you're going to find this to be well received. Like I said a little over a week ago, we're always looking for new ways to help all of you make money in the small and micro-cap world - no matter where that may be.
Most of you are probably fully aware we've been spending a lot more time over the last few years uncovering potential early stage growth opportunities up in Canada - those smaller stocks with U.S. listings we believe have the potential to provide far better returns in a shorter timeframe than one could ever find in the large cap arena.
Of course there's always that inherent risk when it comes to trading or investing in smaller stocks, but when you find the right ones, the returns are nothing short of astronomical. Just look at what these two Canadian based cannabis companies in Canopy Growth Corporation (TWMJF) and Aphria Inc. (APHQF) have done over the last few years.
It doesn't just stop in the cannabis sector though. Everything from blockchain to battery metal opportunities are seemingly surfacing up in Canada to the point their micro-cap market is putting the US micro-cap market to sleep. Well, that's precisely what today's big announcement here is all about.
Some of you may or may not be familiar with James West, one of the most prolific small and micro-cap investors up in Canada. His flagship newsletter, live streaming broadcasts, podcasts and other timely publications - all located at www.midasletter.com - are rapidly gaining tremendous popularity, as James West has uncovered winner after winner for his readers and investors over the last few years - and he's convinced the best has yet to come.
Midas Letter is the journal of "best-in-class" companies in all sectors. Publisher James West is a recognized authority on investing in the emerging company segment having been a regularly featured guest on Business News Network, CNBC, Bloomberg, Reuters, CTV and most recently as investment columnist in the Financial Post.
We've been so impressed with Canada's small and micro-cap markets, as well as the timely investment savvy content coming from James West, that we've arranged for all of you here to start receiving - free of charge - James West's newsletter and access to all of his timely content on a day-to-day basis at www.midasletter.com.
James is obviously so excited about this new alliance that he went to the extent of shooting the following video clip introduction welcoming all of you to his publication. Take a quick minute to watch the clip, and you'll have even more insight as to why we believe this new opportunity could result in some huge profits for everyone here by being in the right ideas before the rest of the herd.
In the video below, James reveals the four hottest sectors he believes will offer investors great returns over the next few years, but he's committed to only brining you his single best idea each month. Now if that's not conviction, then I don't know what is. It's specifically this type of conviction that can make speculative investors a mint over time, because if you've been around stocks long enough then you know it's not about quantity, it's about the quality and potential of an idea.
As a matter of opinion, most investors and traders that don't do well are often just way too active - wanting to get into anything and everything they think can make them a buck. However, the best investors are very selective, and often look at putting their money to work in only those ideas they think have significant potential - no matter how few that may be.
His track record for uncovering early stage winners goes beyond impressive too. Just look at some of the winners he's put out over the last few years. And guess what - those two stocks I just showed you above? James West uncovered those two blockbuster homeruns way back in late 2014 and early 2015 - long before anyone ever really knew about them!
It gets better though. Just a year ago this month, he uncovered Cronos Group Inc. (PRMCF) at $1.75 per share. Today, it's at $7.85 per share for a whopping 348% return! Here's the original content link explaining his idea then: http://business.financialpost.com/investing/january-featured-investment-a-leading-contender-for-the-next-billion-dollar-marijuana-company.
Back in October of 2016, he suggested Millennial Lithium Corp. (MLNLF) at $1.02 per share. Today, the stock trades at $3.59 per share - resulting in gains of about 250% in just over a year. Here's the early article on that particular idea: http://business.financialpost.com/investing/pastos-grande-millennial-lithiums-aggressive-pursuit.
In August of the same year, he revealed both MGX Minerals Inc. (MGXMF) and Lithium Americas Corp. (LAC) at $.15 cents and $.98 cents respectively. Where they at today? $1.25 and $7.13 for long-term gains of over 700% and 600% respectively. You can read his initial coverage on both of these ideas by going here: http://business.financialpost.com/investing/august-featured-investment-a-speculative-play-in-the-hot-lithium-space and here: http://business.financialpost.com/investing/lithium-junior-roundup-a-midas-guide-for-premium-subscribers.
Hold on, there's more...
He brought OrganiGram Holdings Inc. (OGRMF) to his readers' attention when the cannabis space was more than speculative in March of 2015. At the time, this relatively unknown penny stock was in the $.34 cent range. As of today, it's at $4.13 per share for an enormous return of over 1100%!!! Here's the link to that article: https://www.midasletter.com/2015/03/2015-canadian-medical-marijuana-outlook-foggy-with-sunny-patches/.
Then of course, there's two of his biggest winners in Canopy Growth Corporation (TWMJF) and Aphria Inc. (APHQF), which he initiated coverage on back in September of 2014 on Canopy at $2.14 per share, and then again on Aphria in March of 2015 at $.71 cents per share.
Both of those initial articles can be viewed here: https://www.midasletter.com/2014/09/tweed-marijuana-inc-ceo-bruce-linton-q2-expanded-production-growing-sales/ and here: https://www.midasletter.com/2015/03/2015-canadian-medical-marijuana-outlook-foggy-with-sunny-patches/.
It goes without saying those have literally been two of the most successful cannabis stocks in the world to date - yielding returns of 1000% on TWMJF and over 2000% on APHQF ever since.
This is just some of his work, and it's so uncanny from a research perspective that one really doesn't have to wonder why it's called the Midas Letter, as James West clearly seems to have the Midas investment touch. But don't take our word for it - click on his video introduction to all of you here, and you decide over the next several months if he can help you uncover at least a handful of future homeruns.
Additionally, it's not as if what's going on up in Canada right now is an anomaly either, because Canada has had a historical habit of tremendous technology innovation and success throughout its long tenure of delivering high flying development stage stocks.
Remember Research In Motion (RIMM), maker of the first smart phone on the planet - the Blackberry? Well, RIMM made early stage investors an absolute fortune, and now with Blackberry (BB) making a resurgence in the IoT and artificial intelligence space, it could very well be underway again.
How about Shopify (SHOP) - the astronomical growth stock that ran throughout all of 2017 - providing early stage investors with enormous returns. Then there's Barrick Gold Corporation (ABX) - one of the largest and most successful gold stocks in recent history. The list goes on.
Lastly, aside from his ability to identify early stage winners long before most, what we like most about Mr. West and his service is his mantra, "I'm not telling subscribers what to invest in. I'm telling you what I'm investing in, why I'm investing and how I arrive at this determination".
That's a rarity these days when it comes to high profile investors in the financial media, because James is actually putting his money where his mouth is. So, if you haven't already, take a quick minute to watch his video introduction above, and see for yourself why we're all so excited to bring you this new opportunity.
Have a great rest of the week, and start looking for the Midas Letter in your inbox soon!
