This ended up becoming one of the most laughable things ever said about
Amazon (AMZN). And this line isn’t pulled out of some freebie city newspaper… it’s from a

60 Minutes thought it was one giant bubble. Take a look at Amazon’s stock since then. How did a show that prides itself on facts and analysis get is so, so wrong?
Folks Thought Amazon Was Just a Money-Losing Internet Bookstore They couldn’t see Amazon’s goal was never to create an online bookstore. It was building an entire delivery system for internet shopping. Why is internet shopping so popular? Its “killer feature” is being able to click a button and have the items arrive on your doorstep a few days later.

Just as importantly; what are the organizations that have the potential to be undervalued or still have room for explosive growth, and could provide a significant and accessible opportunity for investors without exposure to a large degree of undue risk?
A Possible Sweet Spot In The Market
The Nasdaq Stock Exchange is probably one of the best places to hunt for clues to the future, and few organizations know the future better than those in the Nasdaq-100. When a company makes it to the top 100 within the Nasdaq Composite, it’s a really big deal. These are the companies that are generally considered to be the top leaders of innovation and progress in the world, but what if there was a way to invest in these game-changing organizations before they got to where they are now?
