Why this CEO bet half a million dollars on a California tech company

Sometimes I have to pinch myself…

As the co-founder and CEO of The Motley Fool, every day I wake up and get the chance to live my lifelong dream — help everyday investors like you identify and profit from the world’s most promising investment opportunities.

It’s hard to believe, but 2018 marked the 25-year anniversary of the founding of The Motley Fool by my brother David and me!

Of course, there have been more than a few changes around here during that time. Like the fact that we’ve gone from publishing an investment newsletter for 300 or so subscribers out of the shed behind David’s house…

To serving millions of hardworking investors like you around the globe from offices in countries as far-flung as Australia, Germany, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Japan.

It’s been a heck of a run — but what I’m most proud of is our ability to consistently lead investors like you to some of the most life-changing investment returns the market has ever seen. I’m talking, of course, about companies like:

• Amazon (up 12,792%)
• Netflix (up 17,506%)
• Nvidia (up 2,541%)
• Baidu (up 1,273%)
• Salesforce.com (up 2,212%)

These are actual investment recommendations my brother David and I have shared with The Motley Fool community over the years – and the list goes on and on!

But I’m not here to take a victory lap or make you feel depressed if you missed out on any of these huge gains…

Instead, I’m writing you today to talk about something I believe will change the way you invest forever.

More specifically, I’ve stumbled upon an under-the-radar stock I believe could be one of the greatest discoveries of my 25 years as a professional investor.

I realize that’s a bold statement, so allow me to explain…

This small, California-based company is pioneering breakthrough technology that is enabling companies to move vast quantities of data over the Internet at lightning speeds.

And as the world has become more and more reliant on the Internet for everyday needs, this company has seen its revenue explode. The intense demand for this technology has helped the company race from zero to $2.27 billion in sales in just eight years.

In fact, many of technology’s biggest names – including Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon.com – are now loyal, paying customers of this company.

And here’s the real kicker…

Despite this company’s jaw-dropping success over the past few years, most investors have still never even heard of this company’s name!

That’s right, while everyone on CNBC and in The Wall Street Journal is busy talking about blue-chip stocks like Apple and Facebook, this significantly smaller (yet faster-growing!) company is flying almost completely under the radar.

You see, while most investors have been busy pouring more money into only these well-known tech stocks, I have been doing what the world’s greatest investors do — looking for the NEXT stock that could deliver returns of +1,000%, +2,000%, or even +5,000%.

That’s why, for the past several months, I’ve been pounding the table on the stock I’ve begun to tell you about today – urging members of The Motley Fool investment community to buy shares before they potentially skyrocket.

Actually, I’m so confident in this company that I recently “doubled down” on my recommendation and issued a second “buy” alert to members of my Stock Advisor investing service… and that’s something that just doesn’t happen very often.

I feel so strongly about this company that it’s one of my top stocks of 2019.

Heck, I believe in this company so much, I even invited their CEO to Motley Fool Headquarters to personally tell her how much I believe in her company and why I was staking $523,111 of The Motley Fool’s own money on their stock.

Look, I understand this all may sound too good to be true…

Which is exactly why I want to show you the hard numbers behind this incredible stock and invite you to hear more about this strategy directly from me and my team of analysts – that way, you can decide for yourself if you want to buy shares of this fast-growing company for your portfolio.

There’s just one catch:

I’m sharing the details of the stock ONLY with members of The Motley Fool’s flagship investing service, Motley Fool Stock Advisor.
