A 10 Bagger Like These Stocks May Never Happen Again
726 segments
six stocks and I think any of them has a
real chance at a 10xer in the next 12
months and I'm putting them on the
screen right now. Screenshot if you want
to. No buildup, no clickbait here. We're
not going to make you suffer for it. And
the list is simple. Regetti computing,
D-Wave, INQ, Compass Pathways, Compass
Minerals, and Big Bear AI. Winston has a
warning for you. If you take this list
and you copy it without knowing the
rules underneath it, you're going to
lose money. same way most people who
bought my quantum picss at the top last
January lost money. So if you want to
actually use this, stick around. And if
you don't know who I am, my name is
Felix. This is Winston here who does all
the hard thinking around here. And we
used to be investment bankers. I didn't
particularly love it. So I left and we
started the Goat Academy where my Wall
Street mentors have taught over 20,000
people the last 6 years in the ways that
Wall Street actually uses and deploys
their money. And a year ago, almost
exactly to this day, I told you about
three quantum computing stocks on this
channel. Regetti, it went up over
a,000%. Dwave went up about 800%. INQ
tripled. In back in February, going back
a little bit further, 2021, I told you
about a little software company that
nobody had really heard of. It was
called Palanteer. From the price I
called, it ran up 600%. And last May, I
told you about a boring hard drive
company called Seagate. It was trading
at 95 bucks. 12 months later, it touched
100. That's a 745%
gain on a hard drive company. Last
August, I told you about Intel, and
everybody laughed. Today, Intel listed
the comeback story of 2026. These were
all in different sectors, different
stories, but the same pattern
underneath. Out of favor, real
businesses, macro tailwind, smart money
quietly buying. And that exact same
pattern is showing up right now in six
different names across four sectors. And
that's what we're here for today. Now,
of course, I don't have a crystal ball.
Winston keeps eating them. Past
performance is no guarantee of future
returns. You got to do your own research
and you need to know the rules. But we
need to talk about the wreckage because
when I called those stocks, right, a lot
of people who bought them still lost
money. They bought late. They didn't
know when to sell, they held a 10 bagger
all the way back down. And if that's
happened to you, you're not alone. It's
actually the most common thing in
investing. And it happens because of one
lie the financial industry has been
telling us for 50 years. buy and hold.
Five of the most loved, most hyped
stocks of the last cycle, the ones that
were magazine covers, the ones with
millions of fans on YouTube, you know,
the future of everything. PayPal peaked
at 310,
trading at 40ome, down 85%. $10,000
invested turned into just 1,500 bucks.
Plug Power, the future of hydrogen,
peaked at 75, it's trading at a couple
of bucks, down like 96%. Blackberry
peaked at 28, trading at a few dollars,
down 77%. NEO, the Tesla killer, peaked
at 67, trading at not a lot, down 90%.
Lucid, same story. Now, these stocks
were scams. They were real companies
with real stories with real businesses.
But the stories changed. But retail
investors, you and me, didn't read the
change. Wall Street did. They rotated
out. They took profits. But the buy and
holdless, they held the back. And that's
how this works. Buy and hold is dead in
2026. Not because companies are dying.
It's because stories change faster than
retail adapts to. Retail marries the
stock. They defend it on social media.
They average down. They contract
something known as conviction. And they
get a slow death with that particular
STD. Wall Street on the other hand takes
profits and rotates. That's the entire
game once you see it. And there's a
phrase Wall Street analysts have been
throwing a lot around a lot in the last
few months. They call it a stock pickers
market. In fact, it's been like that for
two years or more. The term gets used on
financial television constantly and
nobody really understands or explains
what it really means. So, here it is in
plain English. When the gap between the
top stocks and the bottom stocks, the
losers gets really, really wide like it
is right now. If you own the index,
guess what? You own the top, but you
also own the bottom. So, the winners and
the losers more or less cancel each
other out. So, you end up with mediocre
returns. Why? because you're carrying
this disaster known as the bottom. Right
now, 77%
of the S&P 500's gains all year come
from the top 12 stocks. So, tell me why
on earth you are holding the bottom 488
stocks with 77% of all the gains come
from these guys. Now, I'm not saying you
should run out and sell your S&P 500
index funds because if you have them,
it's still a lot better than if you're
sitting on cash, which is what most
people are doing, or you're sitting in
the wrong stocks. But it is a stock
pickers market because so few stocks
make all the money while most stocks
lose all the money. So, we're sitting in
one of those windows right now. And
there's three signals that tell us this
is happening. something called small
caps, which are the tiny stocks. They're
tracked by an index called the Russell
2000. 2,000 teeny tiny stocks. And the
Russell 2000 has done nothing, nada, for
two years, but the gap between the top
and the bottom small stocks has gone up
by about 2x. So the index hides what's
happening underneath. There are
individual small stocks who've been
ripping 100% and there are those who are
down 50% in just the last 3 months. And
it's that dispersion
what creates the asymmetric setups that
we're after. And there are a ton of
catalysts coming up this year. FDA
decisions, government contracts,
technology milestones, regulatory doors
opening, and they're all clustered in
one specific sector. And each one of
those events could rerate a small stock
overnight. Because if you got a billion
dollar market cap company and you have a
decision in front of you that's worth,
say, 200 million in revenue, that stock
could move violently fast up or down.
We're also seeing institutions.
So our lobies on Wall Street, what are
they doing? They are buying these small
stocks, which is kind of a fingerprint.
We're seeing smart money positioning
before the retail catches on, which is
what we always see again and again. So
it's a stock pickers market, dense
catalyst calendar, institutional money
already moving, which is the setup. So
where has the money been moving? Four
themes. And people always ask me, "How
do you track these themes?" Well, we
actually have a filter for that. Winston
here. Winston, come on. Show your little
face. Winston's built an app for us
which gives us all the hard data. All
the stuff that tells us is a stock good
or bad. He's even scored all the stocks
out there, but 11,000 of them, the score
from 0 to 100. 100 obviously being good.
And we have themes, gold, silver mining,
quantum computing, cyber security,
robotics, AI, uranium, AI
infrastructure,
satellites, SpaceX, you know, that
stuff. It's all there. You can just
click on it and select what country you
want to invest in. So if you live in one
of the, you know, minor countries, oh,
people are going to get offended, aren't
they? And you can then even filter and
say, well, I only want the ones that
have just delivered like their best
quarter ever. So I then hit record
quarter. Now, I'm just seeing two stocks
here which we've talked about in the
last week or so. And maybe you're
starting to see now why. So, you want to
get access to that. By the way, there's
a there's a free trial down to this. You
can play around with it. 7 days
completely for free. We have a 30-day
money back guarantee. No questions asked
because I want you guys to get value out
of this. I don't want to lock you in
something that you don't like. Um, but I
think you're going to get a ton of value
out of this because I use it every day.
Um, and I also can compare my stocks,
literally the entire list here, and then
I see the comparison. I'm going to walk
you through this in a in a second
because it's important. You see some
really terrible scores, but you also see
that these are all growth stocks. The
scores are more for your established
companies, you know, good profits,
consistent profits, that kind of stuff.
You don't have that for growth stocks.
two of them have the little record cue
which tells you that they're doing
something really good well and that
something is usually profits right
profits here are the best they've ever
been for both of them so what are the
themes that money is going into well you
might have heard this phrase before hard
assets which is basically the
anti-inflation trade because we all know
the US government's going to print a ton
more money and
that's going to devalue the follow. So
what are hard assets? Commodities. So
we're looking at commodity producers
with beaten down valuations and money
showing up in the chat. You know, not
the blue chip stocks, the turnaround
stories. We're looking at war stocks.
They used to call it defense stocks, but
let's be honest about it, right? War
stocks, again, small caps with contract
driven catalysts, AI integration, not
Loheed Martin because we already all
know them. They could go up 20 30%.
They're not going to 5x 10x. We're
looking at quantum first commercial
scale revenues hitting after like 40
years of waiting. Governments are
treating this like a strategic asset.
And then we're also looking at
the looney stocks, sorry, mental health
stocks, um the first new FDA approved
drug class in 40 years is cracking open
a massive, massive addressable market.
And every name on our stock list I
showed you at the beginning sits
downstream of one of these four flows.
So we're not picking stocks that need
the whole market to cooperate. We're
picking small caps sitting on a
potentially massive catalyst inside the
next 12 months and where institutional
money is already moving into it. And
retail hates these stocks mostly which
is interesting. I always say follow the
money don't follow anything else. So,
how can you potentially get a 10x
in just 12 months? It's kind of a
mathematical problem. It's not
impossible. We just watched Regetti do
it. Seagate did it. Palanteer did it
before that, but it's pretty rare. Three
things need to be true at the same time
for that to be possible. They need to be
small enough that it works. A hundred
billion dollar company turning into a
trillion dollar company in 12 months has
never ever happened. Now a $1 billion
company which is sort of lunch money for
Wall Street turning into 10 has happened
plenty of times. And the stocks on the
list here are all between 1 to 10
billion which is where statistically the
likelihood is much much greater. It's
the only zone where the maths make
sense. And then we need an actual event
that could possibly happen. We're
talking talking about an FDA approval.
We're talking about a contract from the
government, a tech milestone, profits
turning, something that forces the
market to go, this is a better stock
than we thought it was. And every name
on the list has won inside this window
out of favor. Smart money already moving
in. But by the time mainstream media is
hyped up on the name, well, guess what?
the trade is over. So the window is when
institutional money is already crawling
in but everybody else still hates it and
all six again fall into that. Now before
we dive into the individual stocks in
much more detail they're obviously on
the screen here. There are a couple of
things that I look at and you might want
to write these down. I look at like how
much of every dollar
of revenue does the company keep after
the costs and for these kind of sort of
softwarish companies you want that to be
70% or more. I call it moat in the
Winston app. Well, Winston does right
now. These stocks are not there yet. And
I tell you why. Because if you want to
get a stock that potentially 10xes, you
need to take the risk that they're very
early. that they're not yet yet there
yet. They haven't sold that much stuff
yet. If you're looking for that 70%, you
know, you're you you're looking for
you're kind of 12 to 20% a year kind of
growth. You're not looking for a,000%
growth. So, I just want to highlight
this to you because it also highlights
to you that these are a lot riskier,
right? But if these stocks passed all
three of my filters, well, they'd be
Microsoft. So, you know, you'd make some
percentage, definitely not a thousand.
So, for growth stocks like this, I look
at their profit trend, earnings per
share trend. And what these little
diagrams show you is, is it improving or
declining the last four quarters? Red
means it's declining. The little orange
thing means it's, and you can hover over
this, it's actually improving. So last
quarter for Regetti profits went up 90
profit growth rather went up 93%. For
Cubid it went up 98% for INQ up 329%.
For Compass uh Pathways it went up
actually sorry it went down 59%. Um
still much better than the quarter
before. For CMP it went up 177% and for
BBAI it went up 98%. So there is
progress there. So let's dive a little
deeper into the actual businesses here.
And I'm just clicking on these. I'm
opening the tab so you can see the
detail. Regetti builds quantum
computers. Basically, founded in 2013
based in Berkeley. They're where all the
smart people sit. Winston's worried
about this one. And he's basically
telling you this is a little risky.
Revenue growth isn't really there yet.
Now they're investing more money into
R&D, which I actually like because a
growth business, not investing into R&D,
a tech business is a real problem.
They've got some cash on hand, not that
much. That should also be a warning sign
to you. And you can navigate by clicking
on the little thing down here. We're
making this nicer to move around. So if
you look at the data, it doesn't give
you all that much. And it's just because
it is a very, very new business. It is a
very, very new technology. But they own
their own fab. They have a quantum chip
fabrication facility which most of the
competitors don't. That means they own
the technology sort of Tesla style,
right? You vertically integrate and they
got a new chip coming out later this
year called Lyra. I thought it was Lyra
but it's Lyra and it's using that new
technology that they have. Their chips
are the most accurate on the planet and
they own the entire fabrication process.
Most people outsource it to somebody
else. So they do that themselves. It
gives them speed, control, the ability
T2 to benefit from this faster and also
to be just faster. So this chip launch
later this year, $100 million UK
government contract,
$8 million India contract, $250 million
quant,
Nvidia platform integration. That is the
list of catalysts we have. The second
stop, quantum computing, ticker symbol
QBT.
Sorry, that's actually the wrong ticker,
isn't it? It's It's QBTS. Very easy to
confuse QBTS. There we go. Hit analyze.
Just update that. There it is. QBTS.
They do something quite different. Most
quantum companies, the INQs, the
Regettes, the Googles, the IBMs, they're
building what are known as gate model
quantum computers. D-Wave uses something
called quantum eneing, which sounds
invasive, but it's built for a very
specific problem optimization. If you
need to find the best say delivery route
for a fleet of trucks or the most
efficient way to schedule workers on a
factory or the fastest way to optimize a
supply chain, quantum analing does that.
And the technology actually works now,
not sometime in the future, actually
today. They have 135 customers, LG,
Sharp, Andural, you know, real
businesses. And what I like about D-Wave
is that they're producing software
margins while they're manufacturing a
incredibly complicated hardware. So
their gross margin here, which is sort
of their moat indicator, you know, how
easy is it to replace them, is the 65%
range. And that tells you what they're
making is so good people are actually
willing to pay over the odds for it.
Pricing power. And the catalysts in the
next 12 months, well, they have an
investor day scheduled in June. They
have revenue last year of of about 25
million. It's growing pretty quickly.
The pipeline's growing pretty quickly.
And honestly, if your numbers really
suck, it's very unlikely that you hold
an investor day on the New York Stock
Exchange, right? You do that because
you're throwing a party. You're telling
people how wonderful you are, that kind
of thing. So, they actually have a moat.
They have a lot more cash on hand, eight
years of cash on hand, not seven months.
And yes, they're investing in their R&D
spend. So it is possibly the safer if
that is a word one could apply to
quantum stocks of the quantum stocks.
Now thirdly is INQ and INQ is the
revenue leader. Look at that revenue
growth here. It's $428%
yearonear which is insane. It is a pure
play quantum company. They did $62
million in revenue just last quarter
which is pretty cool. 400% growth.
They're guiding to over 200 million in
revenue this year. So, it's it's a real
business. And they got lots of cash.
Lots of it, right? Lots of years of
cash, even though they're investing lots
of it. They can spend. They could buy
competitors. They can survive if
something doesn't work. Catalysts in the
next 12 months, a 1.8 billion
acquisition of Skywater, which is a US
semiconductor foundry, catching up with
the neighbors. And it then makes them a
vertically integrated quantum company.
Chip design, fabrication, you know,
Tesla style. And they're approved to
make chips for the US military and for
defense agencies, which is a really,
really hard approval to get. That's
called DMEA category 1. And about 80% of
their revenue comes from commercial
customers, not the government. It's a
huge path of growth for for government
business. And they also kind of
diversified, right? government and
commercial, but they'll keep losing
money. Why? It's a growth business.
They're investing heavily this year. It
might turn around the year after, but
for the moment, they're going to keep
losing money, which is exactly the sweet
spot where you buy a business while it's
still losing money, but there is a path
towards profitability, right? Palunteer
really flew off the handle when it
started to become profitable, for
example. The same is true for most
businesses. Now, again, I'm not telling
you you should go and buy the stock. You
got to come to your own conclusion. Just
walking you through some of the research
that this guy did here. Right, Winston.
He does all of our hard research. Big
nose. Good for sniffing things out.
Well, he just goes in the Winston app.
Next, we have ticker symbol CMPS,
Compass Pathway, not to be confused with
Compass Minerals, which we'll look at
next. And that's why I was referring to
the Looney Bins, because they operate as
a mental health care company primarily
in the United King, United States. And
by the way, I'm not making fun of people
who need help. Um, I go to all sorts of
strange people all the time. I'm going
to a kinesiologist at the moment, which
apparently makes me sane now. Very good,
actually. Highly recommend it. Um, but
they developed comp 360, which is a
psilocybin therapy that completes phase
2 clinical trials for the treatment of
treatment resistant depression and is in
phase two clinical trials for the
treatment of post-traumatic stress
disorder. Uh, which is of course very
good and very serious and you know, a
lot of veterans suffer from that and so
on. So, it's a very very good thing that
they do in there. Magic mushrooms are
part of that. We talked about that a
little while back, you know, sort of lab
synthetic versions of that. Now, what
about the business revenue? I can't see
any. They're spending money on R&D.
Yeah, which is good. There are no
margins. There no sales. There really is
nothing at all there. So, nothing really
we can look at. Literally are no
numbers. And that means they're early
now. They IPOed at about $17 back in
2020. ran all the way up to 60 sort of
meme meme stock area crashed below four
bucks and it's the textbook innovation
curve. What's the textbook innovation
curve? If you haven't seen this, you
might want to write this down. The
expectation for a new innovation goes
like this. EVERYONE'S LIKE, "OH MY GOD,
IT'S AMAZING. IT'S GOING TO CHANGE
EVERYTHING BY TOMORROW. I CAN'T BELIEVE
IT." RIGHT? And then reality kicks in.
It's like, "Oh, it's going to take a
little bit longer and people are not
ready for this yet and it's going to
take a while." And these stocks then
crash and then it takes a little bit of
time for nothing to happen. And then
what happens is that the actual benefit
of the innovation is much much greater
than people thought at the top of the
hype period. So you don't want to be
buying new technology when it's unproven
here. You want to wait for people to get
disappointed with it and then wait out a
little bit of this period and then you
want to get in somewhere here. Study the
data yourself. Come to your own
conclusions. These are risky plays
otherwise they wouldn't have a 10x
possibility. Then we have Compass
Minerals. What do they do? Salt and
fertilizer. I know it's sexy like AI.
Um, but that's kind of the point. They
mine salt, the stuff we put on roads in
the winter, the stuff that food
companies uses. And there is always
demand for that. And they also mine
specialtity fertilizers, something
called sulfate or potachsh, which is the
kind of thing you put on premium crops.
You know, your fruits, your vegetables,
your your nuts, that sort of thing. the
sort of thing I eat. Um, and it has
higher margins than regular fertilizers.
So, they're sitting on a real asset.
They have a salt mine in Ontario, a pot
ash operation in Utah. And the beautiful
thing with that is AI doesn't disrupt
salt. You can't print it. Uh, robots
can't come out of the ground making
salt. Uh, it's a hard asset and hard
assets are coming back into fashion
because everything else is making people
nervous. What are the catalysts for the
next 12 months for this? Fertilizer
prices. So, just fertilizer prices are
going through the roof. It's got a lot
to do with what's going on in the Middle
East. Earnings just came in a little bit
better. Stock popped. Institutional
money is crawling in there. Now, would I
bet the farm on it? No, I wouldn't. But
I like it. And I also like it because it
isn't an AI stock. It diversifies me
from AI risk. and their margins are
quite frankly compressed because they
had some operating issues. The moat is
the salt mine. It's physical. You can't
just make it up, right? Decades of
reservoir and they're already selling.
They have more than a century of
revenue. So, that's pretty good. It was
trading at 100 bucks at the peak,
trading at I don't know what, 30 bucks
right now. They had a tough couple of
years. They had some debtru
restructuring which is improving. You
can see that here. debt to equity ratio
is actually moving up quite nicely and
it's only a
$1 billion market cap. So the balance
sheet is cleaning up. Commodity strength
is there. People are starting to look at
this again. And then we have something a
bit more exciting if you like excitement
in your portfolio. BBAI big bear AI AI
analytics, defense, national security,
border security, supply chain, all that
kind of stuff. Real Department of War
contracts. They're sitting here and
there are two money flows that are the
biggest money flows you've got right
now. One is AI compute spending. If I
could write AI, even two letters are too
much for an ex banker. And war spending,
they get money from both of those. So,
they're in a pretty happy spot, right?
What are the catalysts? Government AI
spending is going nuts. NATO is rearming
like crazy. And people are pivoting
towards USAI vendors for national
security. So we expect several new
contracts over the next several
quarters. But I want to warn you, their
margins kind of suck. Department of War
contracts, those are typically pretty
sticky. That's good. So they got real
revenue. They're actually growing, but
it's also very very volatile.
The market cap of this thing fluctuates
between about 1 to three billion like
all the time. Why? very small percentage
of their stocks are listed. So it could
potentially move a lot, right?
Contracts, AI, defense, it's exactly the
kind of setup that produced Palanteer
600% move. Now, do I think Palanteer is
a better business? Yeah. Yeah, I do. But
Palanteer isn't going to 10x in the next
12 months. Big Bear AI could. I didn't
say will. I said could. Right. So, make
up your own decisions there. And of
course you want to understand what
percentage is a responsible percentage
to put into stocks like these bad
earnings. This thing is down 30% in a
single day. So size accordingly. What
we've got is
revenue growth for three of these,
right? QBTS, INQ, and CMP.
QBTS is the only one with a proven mode.
INQ is on the way. CMP and INQ just had
their best quarter ever. So they're
probably your slightly lower risk, crazy
high-risisk plays, which of course is
what anything that could go up 10% is.
So we have six names, four sectors, and
they're different shapes of the same
underlying setup. Small market cap, so
it can go up a lot. Real business, some
macro tailwinds, and these eventdriven
things that could happen in the next 12
months. And when I was in banking, we
our job was me and my boss, more his
than mine. I was the guy looking for
ideas and he would of course review it
and check it and he taught me everything
I knew. We had a category called event
driven things and it was exactly stuff
like this. We like well if this happens
this thing could go parabolic. So how do
you position ourselves on that right?
But every one of these stocks is also
speculation and speculation is fine but
it has to be size like p speculation. I
generally say 1 to 3% of a total
portfolio max. So size accordingly
because if you lose 1% of your portfolio
goes to zero it doesn't affect you. If
the 1% goes to 10% it does affect you in
a good way. That's the way you want to
look at it. Don't bet the house on these
things. You want to look for a
controlled position-sized speculation.
Define your downside. That's very very
different. That is actually responsible
investing if you understand it with a
responsible part of your portfolio.
Judge for yourself. Let me know what you
make of this. Get yourself the uh free
founders tier trial to to Winston. Still
brand new. You're still one of the first
couple of hundred users here. So, I want
to extend that to a few more of you
because so many of you been asking for
it. Free trial. You don't like it, you
cancel it. Very simple, right? Um then
we're also putting a phone number on
there. So, I know some people don't like
email and that sort of thing. We just
want to make it really, really easy for
you to to reach us. But the most
important thing are the skills
underneath that. You want to learn more
skills, stick around on this channel. We
run trainings from time to time. I
announce them when they happen. Uh, but
start off with the Winston app if you
subscribe to that. We'll also email you
invitations to those events when they
happen. And if you got some value out of
this, let me know. Put in the comments

The video identifies six potential stocks—Rigetti Computing, D-Wave, IONQ, Compass Pathways, Compass Minerals, and Big Bear AI—that the speaker believes could significantly increase in value over the next 12 months. The strategy is based on a pattern of identifying small-cap companies that are currently out of favor, have strong underlying business fundamentals, and are positioned for specific upcoming catalysts, such as government contracts or regulatory decisions. The speaker highlights that while these stocks are high-risk and speculative, they fit a specific 'event-driven' profile.
