In 5 Years, You’ll Probably Wish You Grabbed This COVID-19 Stock

Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful.

Those prophetic and reassuring words were uttered by none other than Warren Buffett himself, at the peak of the 2008 financial crisis, urging savvy investors to stay the course and trust the market.

And look what happened: exponential growth in the markets, record profits, incredible returns for everyday investors.

Within the past two years, the S&P/TSX Composite Index reached an all-time high, and Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft surpassed $1 trillion in market cap.

However, the impact of the novel coronavirus and the quarantine that followed brought the market down in record fashion, leaving investors panicked and uncertain.

Well… some investors…

Because I know one investor who thinks this could be one of the greatest buying opportunities for individual investors.

And he should know. After all, he’s been a professional investor for over 20 years and has led tens of thousands of Canadian investors to market-beating returns.

And investors who followed his advice saw stocks including Shopify, MercadoLibre, MongoDB, and Veeva Systems skyrocket!

I’m talking, of course, about Iain Butler, the Chief Investment Advisor of The Motley Fool Canada.

When Iain joined The Motley Fool nearly a decade ago, he envisioned a service that would help everyday Canadian investors beat the market.

And he knew that even though there are times when the market laughs in our faces, investors who stay the course tend to have the last laugh.

So I think you can see why Iain and his team are so excited about one stock in particular right now… because not only is it on the front lines of COVID-19 testing, but it looks perfectly positioned to buy today.

What’s more, Iain and his team just published a brand-new BUY report revealing this little-known stock… and it’s completely free to members of their Stock Advisor Canada service.

This is the investing service that recommends two new stocks every month and follows up with daily analysis and coverage to help you stay one step in front of the talking heads on TV.

Remember earlier when I mentioned Shopify, MercadoLibre, MongoDB, and Veeva Systems?

Well, here are the returns of those four stocks since the Stock Advisor Canada team recommended them:

• Shopify, recommended in March 2016, up 5,011%
• MercadoLibre, recommended in January 2014, up 1,727%
• MongoDB, recommended in April 2018, up 471%
• Veeva Systems, recommended in April 2016, up 607%

In fact, the AVERAGE stock recommended in Stock Advisor Canada is more than quadrupling the market since its inception.

So if you’ve ever looked back and wished you’d invested in the market during the last downturn, this could be your opportunity to invest in one first-class company that has a clear path forward…

Because while the best time to invest was yesterday… the next best time is today.

To help investors who may still be on the edge, Iain Butler and his team are offering this new stock report to all new Stock Advisor Canada members – FREE with their membership for a limited time.
