That quote, one of my favorites from Warren Buffett, reveals a key piece of investment wisdom:
You can’t force a good investment into being; you need to have patience. The best investments, just like a baby, take a long time to develop.
Well, for many years, we’ve been waiting for a certain investment thesis to take hold… and finally, it’s happening.
We now believe we’re at the inception of a massive trend that has the power to transform dozens of multi-billion dollar industries—from Healthcare and Real Estate, to Fitness and Entertainment.
But despite the fact that we’ve been following this trend for years, it wasn’t until we identified a specific “signal” that we knew it was time to invest.
Triple Confirmation Signal
If you’ve studied technical analysis in the public markets, you know that successful traders don’t enter a position based on a single signal:
Before they make a trade, they typically look for multiple “confirmations."
Not only does this increase their odds of catching the trend, but it helps them catch it at just the right time—i.e., right when it’s about to take off.
The thing is, you could leverage a similar confirmation strategy for early-stage investing, and that’s exactly what Matt and I do:
Specifically, we look for what we call the “triple confirmation signal.” If we see evidence of it, we know that now is the right time to pull the trigger.
And pulling the trigger is exactly what we’re about to do...
Latest Trend Confirmation
For the past two weeks, we’ve been telling you about an exciting new tech trend:
Virtual Reality, or “VR” for short.
The VR trend has been taking shape for years. But when you’re investing in an emerging new technology, you need to be very careful:
If you’re too early, you could get stuck waiting for a financial return for years…. and if you’re too late, you could overpay for your investment or never see a return.
So before we invest in a new tech trend, we wait to see three separate signals:
- We wait for early-stage venture capitalists and angel investors to accelerate their investments in the sector...
- We wait for large tech companies to start investing in the space—this second confirmation helps us steer clear of “false signals”...
- And finally, we look for clear and early momentum in specific sub-sectors of the market.
If you’ve read our essays during the past two weeks, you know that we’ve recently confirmed all these three signals in the VR space:
- There’s been a dramatic increase in early-stage investing activity...
- Large tech companies are making major investments...
- And we’ve identified a specific sub-sector of the market that’s starting to rapidly adopt VR technology.
The mainstream press would have you believe that companies like Apple, Google and Facebook are going to dominate the virtual reality space.
But we’ve uncovered a tiny private company that stands to deliver bigger gains than all those companies combined—and now we’d like to share it with you.
That’s why we’re hosting our first-ever Private Market Investors’ Conference Call.
During the conference call, we’ll bring you up to speed on this exciting opportunity, and we’ll show you exactly how to get involved.
