A Single Idea Worth 1,000%
We have a confession to make.
Many of our firm’s best-performing stock recommendations since 1999 didn’t come from a “typical” analyst.
They came from a 60-year-old former Stansberry subscriber.
- For example, one stock he told us about – Constellation Brands (STZ) – rose 628% and became the most successful stock of its kind at Stansberry Research.
- He also tipped us off to GrowGeneration (GRWG), which went on to rise 1,158% in 13 months.
- And Silvergate (SI), which went on to rise 992% in just over a year.
And yet, he doesn’t work on Wall Street… has no special connections in finance…
And spends most of his free time growing pecans in Florida!
But the fact is… this quiet farmer is responsible for these and many other 100%+ stock picks that other Stansberry analysts have gotten all the credit for.
Over the past decade, he’s developed a peculiar money-making strategy… which you’ll receive in a new briefing – The 1,000% Secret – on Thursday, December 2.
It works by targeting a new type of company with almost no revenue, no product, and no employees… a type of stock some people would say you’re crazy to even consider.
But for the first time ever, we’re sharing exactly what Mike is doing…
An unusual secret
In short, Mike has developed a new way to predict which stocks could rise 1,000%... by targeting companies that essentially produce nothing!
You see – most people invest in companies that own physical, or tangible, assets. And there’s certainly nothing wrong with that.
For example, consider coffee.
Last year, our firm’s senior analyst Dan Ferris recommended Starbucks (SBUX), which makes a fortune selling coffee… one of the most physical assets in America.
The stock is up 124% since his recommendation. Not bad.
But if you want to make serious gains, Mike says… the chance to 10X your money in a year… then you need to look beyond physical assets. Instead, you need to buy companies that own a great idea.
For example, that’s how Mike has made up to 20 times his money in 7 months on a company with two employees…
Up to 19 times his money in 20 months on a firm with no profits…
Up to 9 times his money in 6 months on a company losing money each year… and more.
Not bad for a guy who spends much of his free time growing pecans on a 5-acre farm in Florida, where he lives a quiet life with his wife and daughter.
But there’s a particular way of doing this…
How to price an idea
Mike began his career by doing value analysis.
For example, take an “ordinary” company like Constellation Brands (STZ)…
When Mike first analyzed the stock back in 2011, he asked himself: “How much is this company really worth?”
To get the answer, he looked at how much cash the company would likely generate in the next 2 years, 3 years, 5 years… and so on.
Pretty standard… and frankly, pretty boring.
In this case, he estimated the intrinsic value to be around 2 times higher than what the stock price reflected at the time.
Meaning, the company owned various assets – in this case, alcoholic beverages like Corona Beer – which the market was only assigning, say, 50 cents of value to, for every $1 in revenue.
The analysis paid off… because you could have made 7 times your money after Mike recommended the stock.
But gradually, Mike made a discovery.
You can take this idea of “intrinsic value” to a completely new level.
In short: Instead of valuing physical assets… You can put a cash value on ideas.
Consider Kodiak Sciences (KOD), for example…
It’s a startup in Silicon Valley that has produced ZERO in revenue over the last 4 years. In fact, the company loses money every single year.
In 2020 alone, Kodiak Sciences – which occupies a run-down building down the street from a McDonald’s and a Panda Express, and has only a relative handful of employees – lost $189 million.
No analyst at Stansberry would ever recommend the stock…
But Mike immediately bought it back in 2019…
What nobody else can see
Quite simply, Mike realized Wall Street was missing the most valuable asset owned by this company.
Their idea.
In this case, Kodiak’s co-founder spent years working in the computer drive industry. And now he’s applying what he learned to the human eye.
He thinks he can revolutionize macular degeneration treatment… by applying a technology he and his staff developed.
But it’s the “idea” behind this technology that matters most, Mike says.
That’s because it’s not just an idea.
It’s intellectual property.
And here’s the thing about intellectual property…
Valuation is always forward-looking.
Meaning, you stand to see the greatest potential profit if you invest early, at the very beginning… Even if the idea itself is still just a pipe dream and there aren’t any sales yet.
So Mike did something extraordinary…
He applied a secret he’s been tinkering with for the past decade to measure exactly how much money this idea could be worth.
Here’s how…
1,894% gain in 20 months
He began by doing the same thing he does when he values an “ordinary” company like Constellation Brands. He calculated its intrinsic value.
Only in this case… he went one step further.
He looked at something called “intrinsic value POTENTIAL.”
In other words, he went beyond all the usual things Wall Street considers, like the value of their physical assets, their liabilities, and so on…
And instead, he valued their intellectual property.
Mike determined he was paying about 3 times the value of their intellectual property.
Nobody – not even the company employees – had any clue whether the idea would become a success or not. But at 3 times the value, Mike was getting in on potentially best-in-class intellectual property for next to nothing!
This sounds straight-forward…
And yet, no other analyst we know of is doing that kind of analysis. And in this case, it paid off, big time.
Mike made up to 1,894% in 20 months.
That’s 19 times his money when the company wasn’t even close to releasing a product or earning a profit yet.
But there’s a secret to doing this the right way, Mike says.
That will be the focus of his new briefing – The 1,000% Secret – which you’ll receive via email on Thursday, December 2.

You don’t want to miss this…
Mike has already been using this strategy in his own personal account to confirm that it works… with extraordinary results.
- By knowing how to value intellectual property… Mike made 4 times his money in just over 3 months last year on a company with zero in profits…
- Made 3 times his money in 6 months on a company he bought at the height of the coronavirus crash…
- More than doubled his money in 7 months on a business just down the street from Harvard University… and many more.
And now… for the first time ever…
Mike is stepping forward to share his strategy… along with details of the #1 little stock to buy right now for the chance to make 1,000%.
Keep in mind: This briefing is a decade in the making.
Mike Barrett – the man who’s handed us 2 different ten-bagger stock recommendations – will detail what could be the most lucrative tiny stock we’ll ever share. A new kind of company you’ll likely never hear about elsewhere.

Who is Mike Barrett?
Mike is a 60-year-old former Stansberry subscriber.
He’s a father of three… played football in high school… and now spends his free time growing his own pecans on a 5-acre farm in Florida.
But the fact is, Mike is responsible for many of our firm’s most successful stock picks (1,158% in 13 months on GRWG… 992% in 14 months on SI… 628% on STZ… and many more.)
Along the way, he’s handed us a series of uncanny predictions…
For example, on February 21st, 2020, Mike e-mailed three of our top analysts with a frightening warning: “The potential for a spectacular sell-off is in place.”
The very next trading day, the market plummeted… the first drop of what soon became the biggest crash since 2008.
Then… about a month later, Mike predicted a major bottom was approaching in the market. Sure enough, the S&P 500 went on to have its greatest 50-day rally in history.
And Mike’s been making these kinds of huge calls for years…
For example, on April 15th, 2018, Mike predicted the rise of a then-obscure brokerage firm called Robinhood, which he believed would play a big role in the next bear market.
“Tens of millions of Millennials desperately need a trusted source to navigate what’s directly ahead (a dangerous passive bubble, possibly of epic proportions), then how to exploit its aftermath,” he wrote.
Sure enough, Robinhood became the most talked-about trading platform of 2020, contributing to the GameStop chaos of 2021.
On November 4th, 2016, he predicted a multi-year gold bull market in an essay he wrote about the U.S. Air Force:
“Escalating military spending and federal budget deficits in the years ahead look like very low-risk bets to me. As it plays out, I fully expect gold and other precious metals to rise.”
Sure enough, gold has almost DOUBLED since then.
But now… on Thursday, December 2…
Mike is finally stepping forward to share the greatest strategy of his career… along with details of the #1 tiny stock to buy now for the chance to make 1,000%.
