Back in 2016 there was no bid for oil stocks.<\/p>\n

The sector was dead money \u2014 and I knew it.<\/p>\n

So I went looking to make money elsewhere \u2014 specifically, downstream \u2014\u00a0in search of innovation and disruption in the energy markets.<\/p>\n

What I found there was something very special \u2014 a microcap stock with a disruptive<\/span><\/em> proprietary technology.<\/p>\n

Over the last couple years, I have been patiently accumulating\u2026 and I now own 1.7 million shares<\/strong>. That’s 2% of the company.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been watching.\u00a0Waiting\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n

I bring it to you now<\/em> for a very specific reason.\u00a0This company is hitting its stride.\u00a0Revenue increases.\u00a0Positive cash flow. Big Name Customers.<\/p>\n

Let me tell you why.<\/p>\n

The Second Half of 2018 <\/strong>IS<\/span><\/b><\/em> The Inflection Point<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Business for this microcap is busting out in Q4 2018.<\/p>\n

The company has just signed major deals with multiple NASDAQ\/NYSE listed companies.\u00a0As a result the revenue growth from here is about to go parabolic.<\/p>\n

What is really unusual and crucial for you to understand<\/span> is that almost all<\/em> of the customers that this microcap has on-boarded are Fortune 1000 companies.<\/p>\n

That validates the technology of this micro-cap \u2014 and the company\u2019s ability to sell it.<\/p>\n

Equally important for investors\u2026 these deals are not priced into the stock of this company. With next to no analyst coverage, The Market has no clue what is going on here.<\/p>\n

That will change.\u00a0I have<\/span><\/em> been paying attention, and that gives me\u00a0\u2014\u00a0and now you\u00a0\u2014\u00a0an information advantage on the pros and the rest of the market.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow we won\u2019t.<\/p>\n

This Company Solves A $60 Billion Plus Problem<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

You could not believe how much inventory goes missing from US businesses in a year; accidents, thefts, absent-minded people\u2026 the losses are nothing short of APPALLING.<\/p>\n

\"1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One study shows that in the United States alone at least $60 billion of inventory disappears every year (1).<\/p>\n

But that study deeply understates the problem because it involves a survey of just 91 large businesses.<\/p>\n

A better piece of data from that particular study is that those 91 businesses generated $845 billion in sales.\u00a0 That means that $60 billion of lost inventory for those 91 businesses represents 7% of their total revenue.<\/p>\n

That sounds bad, but the reality of the problem is much, much worse.<\/p>\n

Consider that the entire net profit margin of an average retail business is under 5%. Yes, what I\u2019m telling you is that American retail businesses lose more dollars of inventory every year than they make in total profits!<\/em><\/p>\n

This micro-cap has the solution, and is selling it every month to Fortune 1000 companies.\u00a0 It\u2019s hiding in plain sight.<\/p>\n

RFID Is The Answer \u2013 So Why Hasn\u2019t It Already Solved The Problem?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Fifteen years ago Walmart made a major move aimed at trying to save the billions and billions of dollars that it was losing to inventory shrinkage each and every year \u2014 they would require its 100 largest suppliers to tag all shipping pallets with radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

It was a ground-breaking announcement.<\/p>\n

\"2\"<\/a>

For the first time RFID technology would be applied as a business process.\u00a0At the time, analysts estimated that all other retailers would quickly fall in-line with RFID spending expected to exceed that of Y2K \u2014\u00a0more than $100 billion!<\/p>\n

The technology was meant to be a step change improvement from existing barcode and scanner technology.\u00a0Barcode tracking requires the barcode tag to be directly in the line of sight of an electronic reader or scanner.\u00a0 This is manual, time and labor intensive as well as limited in scope.<\/p>\n

\"3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

RFID promised to be very different with an RFID tag emitting a radio wave that can be read from hundreds of meters away automatically. No scanning, no people.<\/p>\n

While Walmart\u2019s RFID announcement was ground-breaking, what followed wasn\u2019t. It turned out that RFID inventory management was not ready for primetime.<\/p>\n

There were challenges yet to be overcome.<\/p>\n

While the cost of barcodes was basically zero, the cost of RFID was much higher.<\/p>\n

Where barcodes had been tried and tested for 20 years, RFID was brand new and flaws emerged.\u00a0 The radio waves didn\u2019t go through metal and were diffused by water.\u00a0 The readers struggled to cover wide enough areas of space.<\/p>\n

Long story short, with suppliers balking at the cost of installing the tags, the initiative\u00a0fizzled.\u00a0 Walmart completely abandoned its efforts to have suppliers comply with its RFID plan in 2009.<\/p>\n

The RFID revolution was paused\u2026\u00a0but it was not dead.<\/p>\n

Walmart was early, but not wrong.<\/p>\n

We are now at the moment when RFID will be the solution<\/span> that saves businesses tens of billions of dollars.<\/p>\n

Since Walmart’s test, hardware costs of RFID have plummeted.\u00a0 And RFID tags and readers now work over wide areas–the challenges of accurately reading wide areas have been addressed.<\/p>\n

In the future we will recognize right now as the tipping point for mass RFID adoption.<\/p>\n

The microcap company that I\u2019m going to reveal to you is right at the center of this tipping point.<\/p>\n

It is literally happening now\u2026<\/p>\n

Actual Business Results And Actions Are Telling The Whole Story<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Technology doesn’t impress me; cash flow does. So here’s the story of an $8 billion NASDAQ-listed customer that has now installed this microcap’s RFID technology in over 70 locations across the USA.<\/p>\n

That $8 billion NASDAQ listed company had an inventory tracking problem.<\/p>\n

The company didn\u2019t realize how big that problem was until a new key hire joined the business, took one look at things and said:<\/p>\n

We need to adopt XXX\u2019s RFID solution and do it immediately<\/em>!<\/p>\n

The inventory problem was typical of what all retail companies struggle with\u2026<\/p>\n
