 Alex Koyfman / May 16, 2023 This Google Search Is a Reality Check Dear Reader, You know your reputation is questionable when a simple Google search of your name brings up an entire page of references to fires and explosions. Incredibly enough, a Google search of lithium ion, todayâs industry-standard rechargeable battery type, does just that. [lithium ion] Now, please note that I was not googling "lithium-ion fires" but simply "lithium-ion" and specified news articles. A reasonable person couldnât be faulted for assuming that a search on that topic would bring up a stack of reports of revenue growth or perhaps some performance breakthroughs or news of new factories being built to satisfy the growing demand. The problem is, lately, as the world has come to accept lithium ion as ubiquitous and silently crucial as gasoline was for the last century, society is going to start examining the drawbacks and asking the inevitable question: Whatâs next? Lithium-ion batteries have a habit of catching fire and exploding due to a runaway exothermic reaction that takes place once enough individual lithium-ion cells within a battery begin to fail. While fires themselves are a rarity, you see the beginnings of this potential catastrophe taking place every time you charge an older smartphone, tablet, or laptop as its internal battery becomes hot to the touch. You're Probably Safe Most people replace their batteries or the entire device in question before any of that becomes a real risk. However, thatâs only the very tip of the iceberg when it comes to the imperfections of todayâs most popular method of portable and distributed energy storage. Lithium-ion batteries are slow to charge â just slow enough, in fact, that charge delay stands as the single biggest obstacle to adoption for prospective first-time electric vehicle buyers. It may not seem like much, but that 1,000% increase in time spent at the charging station versus a gasoline pump is an enormous psychological hurdle. QUIZ: Whatâs Hidden Beneath This Canadian Prairie? Which critical resource do YOU think is hiding beneath this beautiful landscape? - [Oil and gas]( - [Lithium]( - [Graphene]( - [Off-the-radar element (not hydrogen)]( Hint: Itâs essential to a broad range of technologies, from quantum computing to MRI scanners in hospitals. [Discover the answer here!]( Once theyâre charged, these batteries donât take you that far, and after 200â300 charge-discharge cycles â or about 90,000 miles driven â that range will begin to drop off. It's a constant reminder that a $10,000â$20,000 repair bill is looming somewhere in the offing, right along with the fire risk inherent to an aging lithium-ion battery pack. And yet the lithium-ion battery sector is expected to exceed a quarter-trillion dollars per year globally by the end of the decade â up from just $40 billion in 2021. Thatâs what weâre looking at here â a huge explosion of demand growth for a product thatâs becoming as known for starting fires as it is for delivering a flow of electrons. The writing is on the wall, ladies and gentlemen. The climate is ripe for a change, and it may have already arrived. Lithium-Ion 2.0 Is Here A Canadian company operating out of a Vancouver suburb has invented a new kind of lithium cathode â and it has the potential to render every lithium-ion battery out there today obsolete overnight. The difference is in the engineering of the cathode itself, which is done to an unprecedented degree of precision â on a molecular level. The resulting batteries are better in every performance metric, from charge time to charge capacity to life span. Theyâre more reliable and far safer as well, but perhaps the biggest surprise of all is the cost. Because of a revolutionary production process, these superior batteries require less energy to manufacture and are actually cheaper to build than todayâs benchmarks. Theyâre so much better that the entire balance of power in the lithium-ion game might be shifted in the coming years, and this is absolutely a huge deal in geopolitical terms. Civilization Could Crumble Without THIS Oil Basin... Despite advancements in renewable energy, the world still desperately needs oil. Even Elon Musk admits that without it, âcivilization will crumble.â And right now, a devastating oil shortage is looming, threatening to dismantle our society. But an untapped basin in West Texas containing 46 BILLION barrels of oil could fill that gap. Three tiny companies leading this $5.9 trillion oil boom could hand early investors a mountain of cash. [Get the full uncensored story now.]( You see, lithium, among a few other industrial elements such as rare earths, is one of the most important strategic investments made by the Chinese government in the last half-century. As early as 1987, then-Chinese Premier Deng Xiaoping proclaimed that these elements would do for China what oil did for the Saudis. His prophecy didn't go ignored. Since the 1990s, the Chinese Communist Party has quietly been building a lithium-ion monopoly in full anticipation of a coming Western addiction to wireless digital technology. Projected Near 20% Growth for the Rest of the Decade Xiaoping's prediction, in case it needs reminding, came true. Today, there are almost 7 billion cellular devices in operation around the world â about 0.85 for every man, woman, and child. In five years, that number will double, and the Chinese are fully expecting to exploit that tidal wave of demand.  Unfortunately for them, the Canadian company thatâs developing the worldâs most advanced lithium-ion batteries has no loyalty or obligations to the CCP, which means those plans are now in question. Thereâs a lot more to this story, with a lot of facts, figures, and explanations as to why these batteries are so different and why theyâre going to be so important to the future of the lithium-ion market. This company is public and trading on two North American exchanges, but itâs still largely flying under the radar. Why havenât the institutional investors blown up the stock yet? To answer all those questions, Iâm currently working on a detailed informational video on the topic and should have that ready for you in the coming weeks. Given how fast things change in the market, however, [I decided to publish the written version of that video right here, right now](, so you donât miss another day of trading. [Enter here for an exclusive look.]( Fortune favors the bold, [alex koyfman Signature] Alex Koyfman [[follow basic]Check us out on YouTube!]( [icymi wd]( Doubling Your Income With Slingshot Gold Gold bugs are flourishing while the precious metal reaches all-time highs... and some are making out better than others. Right now, there is a rare phenomenon going on with a small section of stocks that weâve dubbed âslingshot gold.â Itâs pretty self-explanatory in how it works. Basically, when gold gains 1%, slingshot gold gains 2% and sometimes even more. Take a look for yourself... You see, while the charts look similar at first glance, you can see the end result is very different. And this isnât a one-time event, either. In fact, it seems that slingshot gold doubling is the MINIMUM you can get in gains. Weâve seen one slingshot gold stock rise 63% while the price of gold rose just 16%. And the best part? You donât have to own any physical gold to take advantage of this profit opportunity. Itâs really the same as buying any other stock. Gold prices are projected to hit $2,500 by the end of this year. Thatâs a gain of 25%. Every 1% it rises is a 2% gain youâre missing out on. Donât let this opportunity slip by. [Hereâs how to position yourself and take advantage of this historic rise using âGoldâs Doubling Effectâ and slingshot gold.]( [Feedback? get in touch](mailto:/newsletter@wealthdaily.com?subject=Wealth%20Daily%20feedback) [Read this email online]( [Manage Newsletters]( [Share on Twitter]( You signed up for our newsletter with the email {EMAIL}.
