Let me explain…<\/p>\n

Investing in small-cap stocks<\/a> presents a great opportunity to make big money in the Aussie stock market.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t matter if you attended a top-tier university, went to TAFE or never finished high school. <\/p>\n

You don’t need classroom education to be a great small-cap investor. You only need to be smart. There’s a big difference…<\/p>\n

You’ve already taken the first step toward investing success by reading Money Morning<\/em>. Now you just need to learn how to take advantage of the weapons in your arsenal to give yourself the opportunity to lock down huge gains in the stock market<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Before I show you how to that, I have to debunk a dangerous myth.\n<\/p>\n

Big-shot brokers want you to believe there’s only one way to be a successful investor. <\/p>\n

They’ll try to convince you that to be a successful investor, you should buy only big-name stocks<\/a> and hold onto them for years. <\/p>\n

Nothing could be further from the truth. <\/p>\n

If you choose to believe that rubbish, it will keep you at the bottom of the financial food chain for the rest of your life.<\/p>\n

What the fat cats on Martin Place and Collins St really want is control of your money. They want you to leave it with them and forget it.<\/p>\n

And here’s why they hope you’ll never bother to challenge the myth…<\/p>\n

Your broker makes money whether your portfolio soars or falls. All he cares about is that you buy or sell stocks. <\/p>\n

He takes his commission and you get shares that could be profitable, but are more likely just brainless ‘picks of the week’. Stocks that lead your portfolio down the drain in no time.
\n But you can do a lot better. <\/p>\n

You can beat the stock market when you use the power of emerging companies to your own profitable advantage.<\/p>\n

\n

This stock pick has soared 170%<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

The small end of the stock market is chock-full of fascinating businesses. <\/p>\n

I mentioned before that the price of crude oil is crashing.<\/p>\n

But that doesn’t mean there’s no value in oil stocks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In fact, one of my Australian Small-Cap Investigator<\/a><\/em> picks is in the oil business…and its stock price has soared by a massive 170% in less than two months.<\/p>\n

That stock’s name is FAR Ltd [ASX:FAR]<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

FAR explores for oil<\/a> off the coast of west and east Africa. <\/p>\n

Its West African exploration permits are part of an area the US Geological Survey says may contain up to 71 billion barrels of oil.<\/p>\n

Over the past few weeks, the market has gotten more and more excited about the potential oil riches the company is sitting on off the coast of Senegal.<\/p>\n

FAR has nearly $40 million in the bank, but it won’t have to spend that to take advantage of its exploration opportunities. Global energy giants are paying the drilling costs in exchange for a cut of the potential profits.<\/p>\n

FAR’s story is finally unfolding. But if you read Australian Small-Cap Investigator<\/em>, you’d already know that…and you could have taken action months ago to seize huge speculative profits today. <\/p>\n

\n

Lock onto the big trends<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

Buying stocks that prospect for oil at the African frontier is one way to liven up your portfolio. <\/p>\n

But whatever the theme, if there’s an economic shift in the works, you can bet there’s an Aussie small-cap stock out there working hard to profit from it.<\/p>\n

The large-cap stocks that big-shot brokers love to funnel you into just don’t expose you to those exciting themes.<\/p>\n

‘Big name’ stocks stunt your portfolio’s growth. And mark my words…you’ll never get rich investing in companies like that.<\/p>\n

So if not the big, boring large-caps, what kind of companies could make you rich?<\/p>\n

Well, locking onto the big trends reshaping our economy is a good start.<\/p>\n

For example, Australia needs higher tech<\/a> to serve its ageing population better. <\/p>\n

Growing life expectancies both here and abroad, combined with lower birth rates, mean populations are aging rapidly.<\/p>\n

Elderly people have a laundry list of unmet needs, both physical and mental.<\/p>\n

Companies that cater to these needs can build a good business from a large, diverse and growing market.<\/p>\n

I recently picked a small-cap stock that offers strong exposure to ageing as an investment theme in Australian Small-Cap Investigator<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

Discovering the hidden potential in companies before anyone else can be extremely rewarding. After all, getting in before the crowd is what makes a select few investors rich.<\/p>\n

More than 2,000 companies trade on the Australian Stock Exchange<\/a>. <\/p>\n

You probably can’t afford to spend every waking hour sifting through stocks…so picking a winner can feel like finding a needle in a haystack.<\/p>\n

But with Australian Small-Cap Investigator<\/em>, I research and recommend shares that could double, triple or quadruple your money.<\/p>\n

Investing in small-caps can be risky, but if you are prepared to accept the risks and follow my advice…you could be booking big stock market gains sooner than you think.<\/p>\n

Cheers, <\/p>\n
