This isn't the first time you've heard me say this, but 5G is going to huge. Both from a technological and wealth-creation standpoint.
This next generation of wireless technology has endless applications. I'm not talking about just better, faster cell phone coverage here, although that will be an added perk. 5G will be anywhere from 10 times to 100 times faster than the current iteration of 4G. For instance, you'll be able to download a season's worth of Game of Thrones in a matter of seconds.
That's convenient, but not a game-changer. What really makes the new technology valuable is the low latency that 5G offers. Latency is the response time when you click on a link or start streaming a video and it actually happening.
You know the drill: You click on a YouTube video or play on a Netflix movie, but it doesn't start right away... there's a lag. Most people assume it's the device or Internet speeds that are the problem. But In reality, when we click play that request gets sent to the network, the network needs to decipher it and respond.
That lag is called latency. With the current technology the latency is around 20 milliseconds, which is fast, but not fast enough for many of the applications that will flourish under 5G.
With 5G the latency gets reduced to as little as 1 millisecond. That responsiveness might not be critical for watching Netflix, but it will mean that a surgeon in New York could control a pair of robotic arms to perform a procedure on a patient in Seattle. It means self-driving vehicles could communicate and process data in fractions of a second. Artificial intelligence will flourish under 5G. The Internet of Things will continue to evolve. More and more devices will be connected offering more capabilities and faster speeds.
But it does come at a cost…
We can't simply flip a switch to turn on 5G. All these devices connected to the internet will demand an enormous amount of bandwidth. Current infrastructure can't meet the requirements needed. Imagine a creek… only so much water can flow through without it flooding. That creek is the current iteration of bandwidth technology. For 5G, we need the Amazon River.
In 2018, the global 5G market was roughly $43 billion. It's expected to grow exponentially by 2025. We are talking about a 56.7% compounded annual growth rate -- making it one of the fastest growing markets in the world. Which means massive amounts of money will be spent -- and made -- from this massive shift in technology.
Like the California Gold Rush in the 1800s, hundreds of companies will flock to this market, looking to stake their claim and strike it rich. But not everyone will strike gold…
Many investors will surely look for the speculative up-and-coming firm that promises to dominate the 5G market. But many of those firms will fall flat on their faces and lose investors all their money.
Instead of gambling on those speculative plays, I've found a company that should prosper regardless of who comes out on top. That's because this firm owns the infrastructure.
It's the leading provider of shared communication infrastructure in the United States. It has more than 40,000 towers, 75,000 miles of fiber optic lines, and roughly 65,000 small cells -- these are small devices that will relay, and direct internet traffic. Instead of large towers spread miles apart, these small cells will be located every few blocks and will be vital in the successful launch of 5G.
The company also has a proven record of consistently delivering growth through market cycles, and it's about to embark on its largest growth cycle in decades.
To be fair to my Breakout Report members, I can't give away the details of the specific stock. But I think it's critical for my readers to learn more about this company, so I've made the information virtually free.
The report was released this week, and I'll send it to you immediately after you sign up here.
