The underlying concept for this site can be found in the following 2-books:
“The advances we’ve seen in the past few years – cars that drive themselves, useful humanoid robots, speech recognition and synthesis systems, 3D printers, Jeopardy! Champion computers – are not the crowning achievements of the computer era. They’re the warm-up acts. As we move deeper into the second machine age we’ll see more and more such wonders, and they’ll become more and more impressive.”
The Second Machine Age, Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee
“In terms of the internet, nothing has happened yet! The internet is still at the beginning of its beginning. It is only becoming. If we could climb into a time machine, journey 30 years into the future, and from that vantage look back to today, we’d realize that most of the greatest products running the lives of citizens in 2050 were not invented until after 2016.”
The Inevitable, Kevin Kelly
From an investor’s perspective, all of this “futurism” causes investment decisions to become more arcane and complex than ever. How can the average investor analyze technological products and services that are exponential and evolving – or as Kelly puts it, “becoming”?
One answer to that question is to unearth articles that project future trends within industries and for individual companies.
These articles help investors to look around the corner and to focus their attention on which industries and companies offer the greatest potential for exponential growth and, therefore, for future stock market gains.
Anyone discovering articles that might be informative are encourage to post those articles herein. Please keep the brief format illustrated by our postings: Title, brief description of the article, and URL source.
This thread is intended to help all investors in their search for profitable investment ideas. It is hoped that the spirit of this intent will elicit mature and wise contributions.
The site will be monitored and I reserve the right to ban any posters who don't adhere to our fundamental objective . . . the discovery of information that will help all of us to look around the corner for companies with exponential growth potential. |
