Wake Me Up When September Ends

[Outsider Club logo] Wake Me Up When September Ends [Alexander Boulden Photo] By [Alexander Boulden]( Written Sep 13, 2021 The September slump is here, and no one is feeling it more than Elizabeth Holmes. In case she fell off your radar, Holmes is the disgraced former CEO of Theranos, the now-dissolved startup that promised fast and accurate results for more than 200 diagnostic tests using a single drop of blood. Remember, folks, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Theranos grew to a $9 billion valuation and by 2015, media tycoon Rupert Murdoch, former Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, and the Walton family, founders of Walmart, invested more than $700 million. The story was good... too good. It seems like Holmes contrived her life story just to create the typical Silicon Valley company story, dropping out of Stanford at age 19 and building a product to disrupt the healthcare industry. Using the media to prop up her image — you surely remember the iconic black turtleneck and her fake deep voice — she was able to garner more investments. In doing so, she became the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world. But after a whistleblower sounded the alarm that Holmes was exaggerating the efficacy of test results and future earnings projections and patients complained when they received outrageous test results from Theranos machines at Walgreens, the government came knocking... Holmes sits in federal court today, indicted for 10 counts of wire fraud and two counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, including lying to investors, employees, doctors, and patients. She faces up to 20 years in prison. Holmes is unsurprisingly laying the blame on someone else, former president of Theranos and ex-boyfriend Ramesh Balwani, saying he psychologically, sexually, and emotionally abused her. But affectionate text messages between the two revealed in court last week paint a different picture. We can see her sad puppy dog eyes in this courtroom sketch, courtesy of Reuters...

What if I told you that you could turn $500 into $20,500 not once, not twice, but FIVE times over the course of the next few months? If that sounds like something you might like, then [click here to see the details of this rapidly unfolding opportunity.]( Of course, thanks to the U.S. justice system, she’s innocent until proven guilty and the jury gets to decide whether or not her exaggerations were intentional. But the fact that she’s blaming her illegal actions on someone else sounds like an admission of guilt and intent. Case closed. One big takeaway from this case is to always be mindful of so-called story stocks. Burton Malkiel warns in “A Random Walk Down Wall Street” that investing in story stocks is a psychological behavior following the “castles-in-the-air” theory of investing... The successful investor tries to beat the gun by estimating what investment situations are most susceptible to public castle-building and then buying before the crowd... Just as hope and greed can sometimes feed on themselves to produce speculative bubbles, so do pessimism and despair react to produce market panics. The greatest market panics are just as unfounded as the most pathological speculative explosions. Holmes knew investors would speculate on her “disruptive” technology because it supposedly gave patients a quick snapshot of their health. Using marketing, she duped us into believing the Theranos machine could do more than it could. It seemed like a good investment at the time, but as Jimi Hendrix said, “Castles in the sand fall in the sea... eventually.” The more important takeaway is that Americans are so desperate to get healthy that they’ll give their blood to a speculative biotech company led by an inexperienced college dropout. That’s because we Americans are notoriously unhealthy, but the U.S. ironically spends the most on healthcare when compared with other nations. The Atlantic recently reported less than 3% of Americans live a healthy lifestyle. And other studies have found the U.S. has the highest suicide rate and lowest life expectancy of developed countries. Perhaps that's why our daily deaths from COVID are comparatively high as well. [covid] It’s clear the healthcare industry is still rife for disruption, but not in the way you’d think... Have You Heard of “TriFuel-238”? A single ounce could power your home for a year. Under half an ounce could get you from LA to D.C. And now, according to figures from the U.S. Energy Information Administration... The breakthrough known as "TriFuel-238"... Could trigger a wealth event unseen since the dawn of the internet... As it takes the throne as the cheapest source of energy on the planet. This has nothing to do with renewables or fossil fuels — or virtually anything you’ve ever seen before. Yet this strange substance could now claim the lion’s share of a $1.9 trillion opportunity... And hand early investors a potential life-changing fortune.

They cover only half the story half the time. They’ll point to hospital real estate investment trusts (REITs), Big Pharma companies producing “vaccines,” or risky biotech companies that Martha Stewart wouldn’t even touch. By the way, if you like getting into legit biotechs early and watching them take off, you should [check out my colleague’s fast-paced biotech trading service](.

And aside from biotech, we should look outside the box to sectors of the economy that contribute to our health and well-being, including food, pets, transportation, and even financials. My Wish List The second week of October has been the historical bottom for the markets. In fact, the market crashes of 1929 and 1987 occurred in October and were preceded by slumps in September. So let’s take advantage of the dips we’re seeing now. Here’s what I’m watching: - Blue Apron (NYSE: APRN) looks undervalued as a play on healthy eating. Once more Americans realize processed food is literally killing them, they’ll turn to healthier alternatives. - CryoPort (NASDAQ: CYRX) is the leading transporter of the coronavirus vaccines and other medicines that need to be kept at frozen temperatures. With booster shots coming, this stock has more room to run. - ProShares Pet Care ETF (BATS: PAWZ) tracks the performance of the top pet care companies. Pets are great for mental health and keeping owners in shape. The industry is projected to grow to $350 billion by 2027. - Volta (NYSE: VLTA) makes and installs electric vehicle chargers, so this is a bet on U.S. infrastructure, EVs, and a healthy planet. Stay strong and carry on.

It’s not a sexy story but a necessary one that you need to know about. You see, with the advancement of artificial intelligence, 5G, and pretty much everything around us, there’s never been more of an overload on our computing system. It’s crucial that microchips keep up with all these cutting-edge technologies. Thankfully, microchip developments are already underway so technology like AI can work faster and more efficiently. There’s one company I’m looking at right now that’s leading the pack. The best part is this game-changing company is holding 14,000 patents for this technology, and it’s currently preparing for mass production. This can turn a mere $500 investment into a fortune.
