TITLE: 

Building the New World: The Big Opportunity for Tough Times 
 
DESCRIPTION: 


The financial crisis has transformed into a deep global recession. But the far bigger challenge for the next decade and beyond is transforming from a world crumbling under a mountain of debt, outmoded regulation, antiquated technologies, inadequate infrastructure, increasingly scarce natural resources and environmental degradation. The dangers from this unfolding crisis are myriad, but the investment opportunities are unprecedented. A student of and advisor on infrastructure-based investments for more than 20 years, Conrad offers his unique perspective on the best and biggest opportunities for building the new world, from the emerging clean energy economy to 21st century communications and a new green revolution in agriculture.
 
 

ATTEND THIS MEETING TO LEARN: 


Where the infrastructure opportunities of the future lie, and why they’re thriving even during this period of crippling fear in the markets and instability in the economy.


Who the winners are in the transition to the new world of the 21st century, and why their ranks are dominated by many of the same companies that build the world of the 20th century.


How to distinguish a winning company from a winning technology (they’re far from the same thing).


 
REASONS TO ATTEND:    


New World stocks are the best bets in an uncertain market because their revenue is ensured by governments and deep-pocketed institutions, who have deemed the investment absolutely necessary. Many pay dividends and are also very cheap.


Conrad’s safety-first approach has uncovered a group of companies that, while not immune from stock market turmoil, are still posting solid revenues and have few debt worries. They’ll be at the front of the line when the markets do recover.


New World investments are a fertile field for hype and unrealistic expectations that can burn investors badly. Conrad’s strategy of establishing positions in good companies at today’s low prices is the best way to ensure you’ll be set up cash in on the opportunities and avoid the pitfalls that always accompany booms.
