Good day subscribers thank you so much for joining me today i am jeremy this is a financial education channel and today we have story time i am going to tell you a story about three different companies that stock have gone up over 10,000 percent since the year 2000 i’m going to tell you what three companies they are in with each company i’m gonna go into detail on
How it happened history repeats itself over and over and over again and it’s important to know these stories about some of these stocks that have just gone up insane amounts over the last 10 or 15 years because maybe you and the future can potentially see one of these type of situations coming you can follow a stock that’s maybe a small company and whatnot and you
See hey you know one this has some characteristics that are similar to such an such company so this is why this is exciting i’m looking so forward to telling you these three stories you may know one of them i don’t know you’re probably not gonna know the other two we’ll see it depends on how much you’re investing knowledge you guys have so the first company we’re
Talking about it’s a little company well was a local company called hits ins natural beverage hinson’s natural beverage near 2000 they were just a small apple cider and apple juice selling company and they sold to specialty grocery markets they sold to some big supermarkets but relatively there were a small company a fifteen to twenty five million dollar market
Cap so a big company if you’re someone like a normal person but in the world of public companies that’s like the teeniest tiniest tiniest little company out there so they were just moseying along and then herbert hanson and his other co-founder of the company day pn to see hey you know what this energy drink you know thing is starting to become popular this is
Red bowl that started coming over in the late 90s into the united states and expanding in your and stuff and people are liking this and it’s like $3 a can it’s pretty expensive they’re good margins on this product is really starting to take off maybe we should get involved with that so they decided they were gonna get involved with that and they came out with a
Little little or i shouldn’t say little kid it was actually twice the size of the red bull at that time red bull at that time was eight point four ounces they came out with the 16.9 ounces monster energy and this monster energy just started slowly expanding around the united states it went from one store to one store and they just started out that way now there
Are rumors now these are strictly rumors that have heard that in the very earliest days of monster energy they would distribute it to say a gas station or whatnot get them to buy a couple cases then you know the gas station or mom-and-pop shop or whatever they say okay you know what we’ll keep this on ourselves for a month we’ll see if it sells so the rumor is that
In those early days before people knew monster energy and whatnot knew to buy the product they would actually go in and buy the cans off the shelf here and there to help out sales which then the grocer the grocery stores the convenience stores then thought wow this is selling really really well so let’s go ahead and keep this or let’s order a couple more cases you
Know let’s keep this for at least six months now this is a great product and so monster we get to stay on the shelves then that inventory just came back to monster energy no one knows if that story is true it’s a rumor that’s been out there for a long time anybody that’s followed the company and who knows if it’s true but regardless launcher just kept expanding kept
Expanding into new products as far as energy related they started with coffee base got into coffee products they got into sugar-free products they got into all these different type of flavors with juices and whatnot now monster energy is one of the biggest beverage companies in the entire world coca-cola invested in them two years ago a substantial amount of money
And now coca-cola owns around 15-20 percent of the company launcher energy stock price since 2000 is up well over 40 thousand percent forty thousand percent all from basically launching the monster energy brand now they’ve funneled money into other products like it’s called like herbert’s lemonade and things like that and the glass bottles and they’re really nice
And whatnot another type of drink categories but let’s not kid ourselves the majority of the revenue and profits for that company and what’s made that company what they are its monster energy that’s the story of monster energy and that’s the first stock today stock number two is this company named apple apple computer so apple was near bankruptcy and i just want
To say this before i go into can you imagine the biggest most profitable company we’ve ever known in history now was almost bankrupt less than 20 years ago almost bankrupt the type of comeback apple came on is like some guy who was like homeless and thought a cliff and broke all his bones and then somehow healed up then some kind of how made himself a success lin
Somehow became present in the united states that is the equivalent of what happened with apple when you go from near bankruptcy to becoming the most profitable the most important company in the world in history it’s a ridiculous story so steve jobs came back to apple in 1997 many of you probably know that his first thing was hey we need to clean up these products
They had a lot of products that weren’t very consumer friendly they had too many things going in too many areas and he said we’re gonna simplify everything so over the next couple years that’s exactly what he did he cleaned up the complete lineup of apple products to simplify things so consumers can understand what’s an apple product versus you know there’s all
These different bottles of this and that and this and that and he got a very clear future on where he wanted the company to go which was mobile mobile type devices he’s all that vision and steve jobs did he also and this is very underrated and this is something no one talks about he brought in extremely extremely bright and very important business people to be on
The board of directors the type of people that accompanies apple size and with apple being near bankruptcy at that time and basically a nothing company the fact that he was able to get these type of people on the board of directors and bringing the kind of ceo or ceos the other type of executives he did that is unbelievable you want to talk about a man that was a
Salesman and that never gets talked about an apple story it’s just gets talked about about steve jobs and he did everything no he brought in so many great people and that’s part of a great executive a great person that runs a company bringing in people that are like brilliant to help you run this business and take it to the next level and take it to way way further
Out than where you’re at so he did that he brought in so many important people you could go look back and it’s like how did he get those people to be on the board of directors how do you get that person to be the chief operating officer this and that it’s unbelievable so he brought those people that had cleaned up the product line and in 2001 the apple launched the
Ipod the first ipod and ipod sales began to slowly but surely take off take off in completely transformed apple from a company that was near pretty much not even profitable to a company that began to get very profitable and then itunes store came around around 2003 and that propelled apple to huge success now how did how did they do that because weren’t there other
People create an mp3 players and things yes absolutely matter of fact a short story i had an mp3 player that was made by phillips and the technology was ten times better than what the ipad had or excuse me the ipad the ipod had this philips mp3 player i had that my parents bought me i was in middle school at that time my thing was in the eighth grade and by the
Way all the cool kids had ipods that was like the cool thing apples like brilliant remark marketing but anyways the philips device i had it was touchscreen touchscreen was something apple didn’t even have in their vocabulary back then it a polenta was like the turn wheel and stuff if you guys remember the original ipods that’s what they were this was a touchscreen
Display kind of like we have on smartphones now that’s way advanced stuff for that time i could play videos on it like i could put a movie on it or a show or whatever this was like ridiculous the tech was way better than what apple had but what did apple succeed with they succeeded that they had the whole thing they had the ipad of the ipod they had the accessories
For those ipods then they had the fact that they had itunes and everything worked very seamlessly and then they had the marketing the marketing is so important steve jobs it’s one of the things he focused on so much this first couple of years back at apple how do we market apple to consumers how do we do it and his marketing back then was unbelievable on the way
It attracted young people and young people are very important when you’re trying to make something cool when you’re trying to make something cool you need teenagers today you need people in their 20s you need people like that and then they make it cool and then everybody else kind of attracts to it after that they make it cool and everybody else kind of attracts
To it so the fact that he could mark it so well and then they built on that success for the next six years and till 2007 rolled around and they launched the iphone now the iphone a lot of people were like why is apple doing a phone what do they have in the phone business so many questions so many questions you could go back on youtube and type in old steve jobs
Interviews after the first iphone was launched and by the investor community and whatnot and they would ask questions like why are you even doing this you know things like that it’s so competitive this and that and steve jobs take was hey you know what we have a vision for this we think it’s gonna be successful there’s a billion devices this is specific quote from
Him he said there’s a billion cell phone so last year if we can just get one percent market share we’ll sell 10 million units that was his vision and it became true 10 million units that was more way more than apple was selling in any other device so why not try to throw your cards in that type of business nowadays apple has around a 50% market share in north
America it’s ridiculous and now they you know they went on from iphone to ipad and they’re in a lot of different products now apple watch you could not argue that maybe apple is getting a little too many products in there now apple has so many products in the game you could argue that that may hurt them and they might start reverting back to the old apple we’ll see
We’ll see how all that plays out over the coming years and what not we don’t know i can tell you that when before steve jobs passed away apple was three to five years in front of everyone technology wise like when the ipad launched there was nothing close to the ipad as far as the software with the hardware went the way the whole device worked there was nothing
Close to it the same thing with iphone and now you look and people you know say apple doesn’t even have the most advanced products now anyways that’s just a side note the pond liners apples up over 10,000 percent since 2000 and maybe you can see that in future electronics companies we will see as time goes on number three company the last one is a company called
Keurig green mountain so what this company is is a company that was started in 1998 this guy founded a company called keurig and it made these little k cups that went into coffee makers and the coffee makers were like not like a normal coffee maker it was a little like pressurized machine so you put this little k cup in it put it down and it makes you a pressurized
Cup of coffee and then tasted great and all these things so his that was his vision and he’s gonna totally changed the whole coffee industry so he starts out and he markets the products to offices in new york and massachusetts so slowly but surely and they start to roll these units out and when they install one of these big units in an office they actually are
Losing money but they make it back by selling the k cups so over time he began to get more and more success by 2004 he’s done 10,000 units he has over 10,000 units in offices phenomenal now the first company to get placed into the k-cups the for the coffee well the first company do that was a company named green mountain coffee roasters they were just a little
Publicly traded company that was a little coffee company basically that sold raw coffee and those kinds of things they were the first ones to get into under this technology and whatnot and say hey we want our coffee to be in that we’d be happy to so as time went on 2004 rolls around and keurig they say okay you know what i think there’s bigger potential out here
Consumers want this so they begin to mark it toward consumers and they come out with a consumer device in 2004 that’s small enough to fit on your counter all those kinds of things and sales really begin to take off this is when green mountain coffee roasters may actually acquire keurig and the two companies together at that time had a lot more power a lot more
Leverage together a lot more money behind them and they began to expand so fast so fast and over the coming decade basically they just went like this as far as growth they went up like insane revenue profits everything that stock is one of the best performing it was up thirty forty thousand percent over the last decade and it’s really the success of the cake up
And then 2012 the patent finally ran out on that so they started facing stiffer competition but at that point they had already had brand deals with starbucks brand deals with dunkin donuts brand deals with campbells anybody who was anybody that wanted to their name on that keurig little cake up they wanted that because they wanted that potential revenue to come
Through their door so that is such a success in last year the company was sold for 14 billion dollars fourteen billion dollars the company was sold to a private equity unbelievable and what a great performing stock so now knowing these stories i hope you guys can then maybe see something in the potential now i want to warn you it’s very easy to say oh you know
What that company’s gonna do it that company they’re small and you know what they’re trying to get into some new products and you know what that’s gonna take off it doesn’t work like that there’s so many variables that go into it that you really have to pay attention to and it’s not as easy as just saying i’m gonna throw some money at this stock because there’s
Gonna grow you need to see all these different variables that’s why i mentioned multiple things on why these companies were successful you know like specifically apple you know it wasn’t just that you know steve jobs came back it was that he brought in all these talented people on the board of directors he brought all these talented people on the executive team he
Had a vision as for cleaning up the lines and whatnot the product lines he explained this to the investment community and to the consumer community he had a vision so and then he made it happen slowly but surely so if you would have seen the ipod coming at that time that would have been a great time to invest in apple anyways thank you so much for watching today
