If You Have an Extra $100, Grab a Stake in This Stock – Today
Shah Gilani|June 15, 2021
We’ve all heard the old maxim that “it takes money to make money” – which is certainly true.
But retail investors have another version of this adage – “It takes big money to make money” – a frustrating version that teases the promise of big fortunes … but keeps that wealth just out of reach.
I’m here to tell you that this “obstacle” no longer exists.
Great fortunes are attainable – for anyone. And that journey can start with any amount of money – even as little as $100 … or even $50.
Thanks to the advent of commission-free trading and the ability to buy “fractional shares” through companies like Robinhood or Charles Schwab, there’s been a revolution in the stock market – and retail investors are the big winners. These changes make it possible – and affordable – to buy small slices (fractional shares) of an individual stock – no matter how expensive its trading price.
Here’s why I’m telling you this.
Starting today, Total Wealth is going to make you part of this revolution. Each week, we’re going to spotlight the best places to take the extra $100, $250, or $500 you may have – and put it to work.
Let me show you how this works … and then I’ll show you the opportunity we’re bringing you here today …
Slicing Up a Fortune
That $100 I mentioned a minute ago?
Rather than shelling out $3,364 for a single share of Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN), or $2,422 for a single share of Alphabet Inc. (Nasdaq: GOOGL), or $619 for a share of Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) or $130 for a share of Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL), you could simply split that $100 four ways to grab $25 stakes in each company.
The beauty of fractional shares is that the value of your “slice” moves in perfect alignment with the full share of the company. If the stock gains 35% or 50%, then your fractional stake moves up in lockstep – by the same amount and during the same time period.
If I were starting today, and I only had $100, I would be taking a serious look at e-commerce innovator Shopify Inc. (NYSE: SHOP), which we believe has a lot of room to run.
A lot of investors will view SHOP’s current trading price of about $1,298 as dauntingly high – and would likely abandon it for “cheaper” stocks.
And they’d be making a mistake.
This is a company that’s leading the surge in online shopping – something we’re all doing more and more of the past year or so. Shopify’s know-how is especially valuable because it helps other merchants get into the e-commerce game. The company’s offerings include web and mobile storefronts, physical retail locations, pop-up shops, and social media storefronts.
Additionally, it enables its customers to manage products and inventory, process orders and payments, fulfill and ship orders, obtain new buyers and build customer relationships, and leverage analytics and reporting.
Basically, if you have a business and you want to sell your products online, SHOP helps you make that happen.
The company boasts more than 107 million registered users and it was responsible for 8.6% of eCommerce sales in 2020. That puts SHOP ahead of Walmart (with 5.8% market share), eBay (with 4.9% market share), and even Apple (which has 3.5% market share). The only company SHOP trails is Amazon.
In 2020, while most major retailers were scrambling to stay afloat, SHOP posted revenue of $2.93 billion – zooming 85.6% from the $1.58 billion it logged in 2019.
That’s some serious growth, but that’s not even the best part. The company’s profit margin is a whopping 46.67%. To put that number in context, consider that the profit margins for Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and Apple are just 6.42%, 2.18%, 25.94%, and 23.45, respectively.
The bottom line: SHOP prints money – by helping its customers do the same.
And now, thanks to fractional shares and commission-free trading you can own your own piece of SHOP for just $100, or $50 – or even $25 or $10.
There’s no longer any barrier standing between you and financial freedom. All you need to do is get started.
We’ll be coming to you every Tuesday with a new idea on how to use all the latest tools and tricks to get started building your financial freedom!
See you next Tuesday,
