(See Page 160.)<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve met too many retirees who got carried away investing in some \u201ccan\u2019t lose\u201d penny stock and got wiped out.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I believe some of the most compelling stocks in the market are those involved with commodities. You never want to bet the farm\u2026 but there\u2019s good reason to be bullish on this space.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the story.<\/p>\n<p>As many of you know, President Donald Trump is doing something no president has done in decades: He\u2019s engaging in an industrial policy.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration has begun <strong>taking direct stakes<\/strong> in companies that control materials that are critical to national security. The White House fears that in a war against Russia, China, or some other foe, essential commodities will become scarce and unavailable.<\/p>\n<p>When Trump announces that the government is investing in a company, those stock prices skyrocket.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in August, when the U.S. government took a 10% position in <strong>Intel<\/strong> (Nasdaq: INTC), the chipmaker, the stock was at $20 a share. By mid-January, it was over $50.<\/p>\n<p>When the government took a position in <strong>MP Materials<\/strong> (NYSE: MP) last year\u2026 it shot up 216% in four months.<\/p>\n<p>When the U.S. took a 10% stake in <strong>Lithium Americas<\/strong> (NYSE: LAC)\u2026 it tripled in three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>When it took a 10% stake in <strong>Trilogy Metals<\/strong> (NYSE: TMQ)\u2026 the stock launched 388% in just eight days.<\/p>\n<p>Every major market move starts the same way.<\/p>\n<p>Quietly.<\/p>\n<p>Long before the headlines\u2026 before the cable news debates\u2026 before Wall Street analysts scramble to upgrade their price targets\u2026 a handful of insiders position themselves <em>early<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s exactly what I believe is happening right now.<\/p>\n<p>If the Trump administration continues to move in on these kinds of stocks, it could create more sudden moves.<\/p>\n<p>For these stocks that are tied to government-backed strategic resources, the results are dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>The stocks don\u2019t drift higher slowly. They <strong>reprice instantly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because government involvement does three things at once:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px;\">\n<li style=\"margin: 21px 0px 21px 0px;\">Validates the asset<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin: 0px 0px 21px 0px;\">De-risks the project<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin: 0px 0px 21px 0px;\">Signals long-term demand.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And now, all the signs suggest the next target could be <strong>nickel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>America Has a Nickel Problem<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s the uncomfortable truth most investors don\u2019t realize: <em>The United States is dangerously dependent on foreign nickel supplies.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Indonesia, Russia, and China dominate global production. Meanwhile, American industries that cannot function without nickel are expanding at breakneck speed.<\/p>\n<p>Nickel is a critical input in <strong>Tesla<\/strong>\u2018s (Nasdaq: TSLA) higher-energy-density batteries, particularly those used in long-range vehicles and future platforms. As Tesla has scaled, it has become increasingly aggressive about locking in raw-material supply, rather than relying on spot markets or overseas intermediaries.<\/p>\n<p>But this is about more than just electric vehicles. Think about aerospace manufacturing\u2026 advanced weapons systems\u2026 and AI chips and data centers.<\/p>\n<p>Every one of them requires massive amounts of nickel\u2026 but America cannot provide adequate supply.<\/p>\n<p>Keep an eye on the administration\u2019s next moves. Following them could give a serious boost to your portfolio.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n  window.fbAsyncInit = function() {\n    FB.init({\n      appId      : '555402891275842',\n      xfbml      : true,\n      version    : 'v20.0'\n    });\n    FB.AppEvents.logPageView();\n  };\n  (function(d, s, id){\n     var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n     if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}\n     js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n     js.src = \"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js\";\n     fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n   }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n<\/script><script>\n    (function(d, s, id) {\n      var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n      if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n      js = d.createElement(s);\n      js.id = id;\n      js.src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v3.1&appId=555402891275842&autoLogAppEvents=1\";\n      fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n    }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n  <\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/wealthyretirement.com\/market-trends\/trumps-next-big-stock-buy\/?source=app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cElementary, my dear Watson, elementary!\u201d \u2013 Sherlock Holmes One of my favorite lines from The Maxims of Wall Street is found on Page 158: \u201cTo make it, concentrate; to keep it, diversify.\u201d There\u2019s much wisdom in this one sentence.
