Andrew’s note:<\/strong> In today\u2019s Market Minute<\/em>, billionaire financier and editor of Strategic Trader<\/em> Dave Forest discusses how a secret helicopter ride helped show him some of the most revolutionary trends in the electric vehicle (EV) industry.<\/p>\n

Simply put, Dave sees an “EV Superboom” heading our way… with the total number of EVs set to rise from 10 million to 145 million.<\/p>\n

During his exclusive EV Superboom Summit on Wednesday, March 2, at 8 p.m. ET<\/a>, he’ll share the details on his top EV warrant play right now and show you the best way to profit from the coming EV Superboom.<\/p>\n

Keep reading to find out how Dave discovered a critical part of how the richest people on the planet grow their fortunes…<\/p>\n

He told me to meet him on the docks…<\/p>\n

“Don’t ask too many questions,” my good friend, a lawyer I’d worked with for years, said.<\/p>\n

I went along with his request and joined him one gray morning down by the dark ocean.<\/p>\n

Eventually, a loud whirring sounded over the horizon.<\/p>\n

A helicopter appeared. It landed, and I followed him inside.<\/p>\n

As the chopper lifted off over the water, he explained we were heading for a tiny island off the Pacific Coast.<\/p>\n

A very wealthy man wanted to see us there…<\/p>\n

Top Investors Ride the Wave All the Way Up<\/h2>\n

It turned out my friend was working with this reclusive investor. They’d identified a new energy technology.<\/p>\n

The tech turned fossil fuels like oil and natural gas into clean-burning hydrogen. It all happened in the ground, so you didn’t even need to pump the petroleum.<\/p>\n

They believed it was a breakthrough. But geology played a key role in making or breaking it.<\/p>\n

As a professional geologist, they wanted my opinion on whether to move forward.<\/p>\n

Eventually, the wealthy investor’s island compound appeared on the horizon. The helicopter set down, and he greeted us.<\/p>\n

We spent the day in his living room, overlooking the lush cedar forest. There, we hashed through every aspect of the new technology.<\/p>\n

In the end, I wasn’t convinced. I told him the tech had promise, but it was more of a science project than a sure thing.<\/p>\n

He didn’t seem put off. His cheer was surprising, given he’d already invested serious money getting the hydrogen tech to its current stage.<\/p>\n

But for him, the amount was peanuts compared to his overall net worth. He said he’d keep working on the tech, no worries.<\/p>\n

I realized something that day… It’s a critical part of how the richest people on the planet grow their fortunes.<\/p>\n

Most investors chase trends… The world’s wealthiest investors create them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s tempting to jump on what everyone else does, says, or buys.<\/p>\n

But that’s not the way to make a truly outstanding fortune.<\/p>\n

The world’s top investors get into trends right at the beginning. They ride the wave all the way <\/em>up.<\/p>\n

This, of course, means bigger gains. It also ensures smaller losses. If a sector hasn’t moved up yet, it doesn’t have far to fall.<\/p>\n

The hydrogen tech I viewed on the island getaway is a prime example.<\/p>\n

At the time I visited, no one cared about next-generation energy tech. Today, hydrogen is one of the hottest sectors on the planet. I suspect the wealthy investor I met is raking in millions.<\/p>\n

Making the Trends<\/h2>\n

I’ve applied this lesson myself since then. For the last several years, I’ve dedicated a lot of time to new satellite imaging technology. It’s the biggest breakthrough I’ve seen for finding massive supplies of “hard tech” metals.<\/p>\n

Plus, I worked with a Ph.D. mathematician. He developed completely new ways of crunching satellite data.<\/p>\n

We applied it all over the world – Colombia, Mongolia, even Roman ruins in Europe.<\/p>\n

One of our biggest tests of this new technology came in the Southeast Asian nation of Myanmar.<\/p>\n

We ran our satellite over hundreds of thousands of square miles – nearly half the country. Then, I drove thousands of miles checking what we found.<\/p>\n

Our target was copper. That’s one of the biggest hard tech plays going on. It’s critical to the electric vehicle (EV) revolution – every single EV contains over 180 pounds of copper.<\/p>\n

When I got out to the barrens, however, I realized I wasn’t alone looking for hard tech. Driving through the desert, I came across a massive settlement in the middle of nowhere.<\/p>\n

It was a Chinese conglomerate. They were busy digging copper from the ground. They shipped it back to China to feed the country’s massive tech sector.<\/p>\n

After asking around, I found they’ve been at it for years. Just like the wealthy gentleman on the island, they took a long view on tech investing. They’d sunk millions back when no one cared about copper.<\/p>\n

Now, they were ahead of everyone. I’d even bet they’re making billions today, with copper prices hitting record highs.<\/p>\n

They beat me… and that was disappointing. But it was also an important experience.<\/p>\n

It clued me in to just how big EV hard tech was becoming. That revelation came at a time when no one cared yet about EVs.<\/p>\n

Lessons like that (and from other massive investors like billionaire Robert Friedland) drove me headlong into EV research.<\/p>\n

The Next EV Winners Are Right Here<\/h2>\n

It’s worked out. Today, we’re positioned for one of the biggest tech booms in history. It’s the kind of play wealthy investors love – one that’s just starting… and poised to be world-changing.<\/p>\n

To that end… I’m hosting a huge event on Wednesday, March 2, at 8 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n

It’s called the EV Superboom Summit<\/a>. The urgent reason? Forty-nine years’ worth of gains… in 12 months due to a tiny company in a small subsector of the EV industry.<\/p>\n

Like hard tech, this company is essential to Tesla’s EVs… Ford’s EVs… Jaguar, Porsche, GM, Chevy, Mercedes’s EVs… and more.<\/p>\n

Plus, it costs just three dollars to get in on the ground floor.<\/p>\n

Don’t be late on this… make sure you reserve your slot right here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Keep walking the path,<\/p>\n\n\n
