Key Investment Opportunity: Pure Storage – 26/08/2024
In the summer of 1998, financial markets experienced a dramatic crisis that led to a significant drop in stock prices.
This period of turmoil, however, set the stage for an incredible rally, with the Nasdaq surging nearly 5X over the next 18 months. The Federal Reserve’s rate cuts were pivotal during this time, and today, we are seeing a similar opportunity with AI poised to be the next major economic shift.
AI is shaping up to be as transformative as the internet was in the late ’90s. Major tech players like Microsoft and Google are heavily investing in AI, creating a prime environment for substantial gains in AI-related stocks.
One key player in this sector is Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG), a leader in high-performance data storage. I first added Pure Storage to the SPI-Club Model Portfolio on September 3, 2021, when its shares were priced at $21.32. Since then, the stock has performed exceptionally well, climbing to $60.92—an impressive gain of 285% over the past 3½ years.
Pure Storage’s innovative solutions are critical for AI and data centers, which is a sector poised for massive growth. The company’s shift to a subscription-based model has significantly boosted recurring revenue, and their technology supports high-profile clients like NASA and Roblox.
Given the accelerating demand for AI and data storage, Pure Storage’s stock is set for further significant gains. With a projected increase of 300% by 2027, now is an excellent time to invest or add to your holding.
Action to Take: Buy Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG).

SPI-Club News Bulletin – Published 27/10/2022
Why SPI-Club Focuses on U.S. Disruptive Equities and What’s Next
Dear SPI-Club Members,
I recently received a thoughtful question from a member about why most of our disruptive equity picks are based in the U.S. and priced in U.S. dollars. Here’s a detailed response:
Why the U.S.?
In its relatively short 244-year history, the United States has consistently led in innovation, disruption, and economic progress. Despite periodic downturns, the overall trajectory of U.S. markets has been nothing short of extraordinary. The U.S. boasts the world’s largest stock markets, a robust regulatory environment, and the USD as the global reserve currency, which mitigates, though does not eliminate, some investment risks.
Investing inherently involves risk, but the greatest risk is missing out on potential gains. Holding cash, especially in an inflationary environment, often means losing purchasing power over time.
Current Market Insights
Last week’s SPI-News covered the best-performing sectors since May 12, 2022. Many of you asked if we’re predicting a market bottom. Let me clarify: We don’t attempt to call market bottoms or tops. Instead, SPI-Club focuses on identifying opportunities in any market condition. The recent market volatility represents a “perfect storm” but also potential opportunities as we approach what may be the market’s bottom.
Savvy investors embrace volatility, using it as a chance to invest in promising sectors without compromising their emergency liquidity.
Model Portfolios and Opportunities
We’re currently building Model Portfolios in Next Generation Disruptive Equities and Cryptocurrencies, aiming for potential 10x (1,000%) returns over the next 5 to 10 years. This Bear Market has created rare opportunities at discounted valuations.
Here’s how our Disruptive Equities performed from October 21 to October 26:
- Autonomous Driving Technology: +6.84%
- Bioscience: +7.42%
- FinTech: +9.88%
- Health Care: +11.12%
- Metaverse: +6.97%
- New Energy (Batteries and Related Tech): +10.43%
- Precision Medicine: +9.71%
In our Disruptive Equities Model Portfolio, 21 sectors with 104 picks showed gains ranging from 2.11% to 12.63% last week.
For Cryptocurrencies, we have three risk categories—Adventurous, Adventurous Plus, and Adventurous Bold—each with 14 picks. We’ll be adding a few more alternative coins soon, so stay tuned for performance updates and trade alerts.
U.S. Innovations and Opportunities
A recent U.S. report highlighted a growing psychological issue called “range anxiety”—the fear of running out of battery on electric vehicles (EVs) and the stress of finding charging stations. The Biden administration is investing up to $5 billion to address this concern, which underscores the challenges and opportunities in EV infrastructure.
In Spain, while there are fewer charging stations, we’re seeing more developments. I noticed a new area at a BP station for EV chargers, highlighting increasing demand.
We have a Pre-IPO opportunity featuring patented technology that can charge an EV in just 5 minutes, among other advancements in the New Energy sector. Detailed information is available in the Members Area.
Additionally, our Disruptive Equities Model Portfolio includes a pioneering EV charging company with a 56.33% share price increase since May 12, 2022.
Exclusive Member Upgrades
To enhance your experience, we’re offering a Free Upgrade for Silver Members to Gold Membership, which includes:
- Guidance on Setting Up Personal Trading Platform Accounts
- Instructions on Operating Your Accounts
- Tax Planning Guidance to Ensure Compliance and Efficiency
Thank you for your continued feedback. It’s invaluable as we strive to serve you better.
Best regards,

Trade Alert: BUY – Qualcomm (QCOM) – Published 23/08/2024
At SPI-Club, in collaboration with our highly connected and insightful US “Fin Tel Partners,” we are confident that the next six years will offer unprecedented investment opportunities.
To capitalize on these, it is crucial to lay the groundwork for future success while effectively managing and protecting your wealth.
Soon, we will be unveiling the SPI-Club Elite Membership, designed exclusively for members with a portfolio of at least $250,000 or those who commit to reaching this threshold within the next 12 months through substantial regular savings.
Today, I am recommending an investment in QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM).
QUALCOMM stands out as a significant player in the AI sector. The company supplies essential chips for a wide range of electronics, including smartphones, computers, tablets, and other consumer devices.
As we have observed throughout the year, major tech giants such as Google, Amazon, and Elon Musk have invested heavily in the AI space, all positioning themselves for substantial growth.
Amidst the widespread hype surrounding AI, it is important to look beyond the mainstream narratives. With the anticipated launch of Apple’s AIPhone, Apple is set to potentially dominate the $15 trillion AI market, continuing its history of market leadership.
However, to maximize your investment returns as Apple advances in the AI arena, it is crucial to also consider the companies that supply the technology to Apple.
QUALCOMM is poised to benefit significantly from this upcoming technological shift, making it an excellent investment opportunity.
A more detailed report on this investment opportunity will be provided in a forthcoming News Bulletin. In the meantime, we recommend the following action:
Action to Take: Buy QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM).
Should you have any questions regarding this alert, please do not hesitate to contact us at Support@steinprivateinvestorsclub.com

Earnings report released in May delivers great results – Published 09/05/2024
SPI-Club has been bullish on Palantir since we added it to the Innovative, Disruptive Equities Model Portfolio in May 2021, and our patience is being rewarded.
Their closed Artificial Intelligence (AI) initiatives are like nothing else out there, and with heavyweights from Wall Street backing them, we are excited about the long-term potential that Palantir will become another 10x plus success for long-term early investors.
· Year to Date +30.04%
· Last 12 months +125.76%
· Last 24 months +189.01%
· Last 60 months +134.35% (note momentum building)
They exceeded performance expectations delivering double-digit growth rates across the board.
Total revenue soared to $634 million, a 21% increase year over year, surpassing both Wall Street estimates and their own guidance. Adjusted operating income also came in above consensus at $226 million.
Government revenue exceeded expectations at $335 million, up 16% year over year, while commercial revenue surged to $299 million, a 40% increase.
Palantir’s commercial segment pipeline is highly impressive with a 94% increase in new deals and a 74% growth in remaining deal value.
It’s clear that Palantir is poised for explosive growth!
This is an opportunity for SPI-Club Members with spare long-term capital to buy at a discount to Palantir’s future value as its growth trajectory points skyward.
Palantir CEO Alex Karp announced in November 2023 the securing of a $410 million contract to establish a new data platform for the UK National Health Service, initially to run for 5 years.
Mr Karp confidently stated, “Palantir is just scratching the surface and in 10 years, Palantir could be 10 to 20-times bigger”.
It is clear the potential for Palantir to grow is enormous and remains a strong BUY for SPI-Club Members.
Warmest regards,
Stu

We are Entering a Wealth Generating Period Unpresented in History
AI Mega Trend: A Game-Changer for Your Financial Future -Published 05/07/2024
“The investment decisions you make in the next two years will undoubtedly shape your financial future.”
This bold prediction comes from industry leaders and billionaires who are pioneering innovations in Artificial Intelligence (AI). We might even witness the world’s first trillionaire soon!
What is a Mega Trend?
Most investors grasp the concept of a “Mega Trend” as a powerful innovation that drives significant economic activity. Mega Trends act like a hurricane-force tailwind, catapulting leading stocks to new heights over the medium term.
Consider past Mega Trends: from computers to smartphones and, more recently, electric vehicles. Each has dramatically transformed the stock market.
For example, Tesla’s astounding 158-fold return translates to a compound annual growth rate of 46.5% since its inception.
Why AI is Different
AI stands apart from past Mega Trends due to its unprecedented scope and speed. It’s influencing every sector of the stock market and is rapidly emerging as the most significant and fastest Mega Trend in history. The good news for SPI-Club Members? We’re just at the beginning of this revolution.
Bill Gates predicts, “AI will have an impact in the next two years equivalent to what would have taken 300 years in the past.”
SoftBank’s Masayoshi Son believes, “AI could be 10,000 times smarter than humans by 2035, and frankly, most people are underestimating its impact.”
These perspectives are echoed by other influential figures like Elon Musk, who are fully embracing AI’s transformative potential.
Member Objectives
As an SPI-Club member, your primary goal should be to develop a strategy to achieve financial independence—free from the need to earn active income by a realistic target date.
For those already financially independent, your focus should be on protecting your wealth with a risk-averse investment strategy and utilizing a compliant family tax shelter that ensures your estate passes tax-free, without probate or a will upon your death.
Achieving these goals requires a customized plan of action and investment strategy. While specific details will vary, the core objectives remain consistent.
Your Path with SPI-Club
Your engagement in SPI-Club’s Financial Intelligence and unique analytics is vital. For those seeking more personalized support, we offer a 3-month one-on-one coaching program designed to create your tailored Financial Action Plan.
This program will guide you in developing a strategy to safeguard and grow your wealth within a valid and compliant tax structure, both for your life and legacy.
My goal is for all SPI-Club members to acquire the financial intelligence needed to protect and build their legacy.
Exclusive Opportunity
I will personally reach out to each of you to introduce a more hands-on service focused on personal strategy. We must seize these “golden years of opportunity” as they may not come again in our lifetime.
This exclusive initiative has limited availability, initially accommodating only 80 participants under the current business model.
If you want to be at the forefront of this opportunity, please contact me without delay to discuss further.

These are not Trends -These are Revolutions!
Artificial Intelligence and Cryptocurrencies were two of the hottest market sectors in 2023, and we believe they are only just starting.
We’re are therefore excited to announce Immutable (IMX) as a new exciting addition to our cryptocurrency picks for 2024 in the Adventurous Bold risk category.
Immutable has been on our radar for quite some time, and it aligns perfectly with our investment philosophy at SPI-Club. This layer-2 platform is at the heart of the booming crypto gaming industry, making it a standout choice for our portfolio.
The Fee Problem Solved – Immutable has garnered significant attention, and for good reason. It addresses the notorious fee problem that has plagued many blockchain applications, especially on Ethereum’s main chain.
While the concept of gamers earning money and having ownership in the games they play is enticing, the high transaction costs on Ethereum hindered its practicality.
IMX has successfully tackled this issue, establishing itself as the go-to platform for crypto game development. DeFi Llama’s research shows that developers are flocking to IMX, fuelling steady growth.
Powerful Partnerships – One of the standout features of IMX is its impressive roster of partnerships. Collaborations with industry giants like Warner Bros., Microsoft, Amazon, EA, SEGA, Epic Games, Ubisoft, and GameStop emphasize the platform’s growing significance.
The involvement of such enterprises in the decentralized gaming space underscores the rapid expansion of this trend.
A Thriving Gaming Market – The gaming sector is experiencing explosive growth, providing a strong foundation for IMX’s potential success. With over 3 billion gamers worldwide and no signs of the industry slowing down, the market is ripe for innovation.
Remarkably, despite the gaming industry’s overall valuation of $385 billion, crypto gaming accounts for just $3 billion of that total. This means crypto gaming represents only 0.7% of the entire gaming market, leaving vast room for growth.
Crypto.com Research predicts that by 2030, crypto gaming will contribute a staggering $90 billion to the gaming industry’s revenue.
Timing is Everything – Over the past two years, the global crypto gaming industry has attracted $5.6 billion in investments. Many games developed during this period are scheduled for release in the first half of 2024. We anticipate a rush of users and capital flooding into this space, making it a strategic move to hold IMX leading up to and during this launch period.
IMX as the Preferred Launch Platform – Immutable stands out as the preferred launch platform for numerous games due to its affordability and scalability. Illuvium, Deadrop, Maplestory, and many other titles have chosen IMX.
You can experience these games live on IMX here. Rather than focusing on a single upcoming game, we believe the most significant returns will come from investing in the infrastructure layer of the crypto gaming industry through a proven platform like IMX.
Incorporating Immutable into the SPI-Club Model Portfolio aligns with our commitment to identifying promising opportunities and positioning our members for long-term success.
With its strategic advantages, IMX represents an exciting addition to our portfolio for 2024 and beyond.

Trade Alert – Buy Hims & Hers August 16, 2024
New CEO at Weight Loss Giant
Hims & Hers Health, Inc.(NYSE: HIMS) is up 62.34% Year to Date (YTD).
The stock started to climb on the news that the company was adding Kåre Schultz to its Board of Directors. Schultz spent over 25 years at Novo Nordisk, where he served as President and COO as the company established itself as a leading company in diabetes care.
Schultz was also the former CEO of generic drug maker Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. Hims is adding Schultz to the board because the company is pursuing a new strategy in the weight loss drug market.
Thanks to the limited supply of these high-demand and expensive brand-name drugs, Hims has decided to take advantage of a section of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act that allows for the sale of compounded versions of medications that are facing a shortage.
Compounding is the customization of an approved drug by a pharmacist or physician to meet the specific needs of an individual patient. Using this process, Hims is selling a compounded version of semaglutide, the active ingredient in these drugs, $199 for a month’s supply.
To put that into perspective, the two leading drugs in this category, Ozempicand and Wegovy, cost nearly $1,000 and $1,349 respectively, and that’s why in a press release Schultz said, “Hims & Hers is on a trajectory to upend the healthcare industry”.
When asked if Hims will still be able to make compounded semaglutide after the shortages end, Schulz said he wasn’t worried because there would still be cases where patients needed individualized prescriptions.
That means Hims has the chance to profit from this trend in weight loss drugs for the foreseeable future.
We appreciate that not all members have spare long-term cash flow to add to their portfolio. Therefore consider requesting a review to rebalance quarterly to spread risk. There is so much happening in markets due to the pace of AI advancement, it makes even more sense to equal weight the Risk-on sector of your portfolio.
