The next revolution is coming, and this time it includes a twist that might fundamentally change a part of our lives…
And with any revolution, certain people stand to make a windfall of cash just by maneuvering themselves into the right positions at the right time.
Will you be one of those people to cash in on the impending shake-up?
Since its introduction to the world, television has become an integral part of life for the average person living in a developed part of the world. Virtually all of us have our favorite TV shows that feel like we have to watch.
But to get to the point its currently at, television has gone through several revolutionary changes…
It’s gone from black and white to color. Then the advent of the remote control completely changed the way we commanded TV sets (imagine living without a remote control now…). Antennas, cable, high-definition—the way we consume television has been altered countless times.
Some of those changes I would consider revolutionary, and now the next TV revolution could be set to take place…
In recent years, the focus for TVs has been on graphics. High-definition spurred on a race to bringing the clearest picture into your home. And the new secret weapon for that race is 4k technology.
Called ultra-high-def, 4k technology offers a crisper, more detailed image on a television set than ever before.
And the 4k revolution may bring with it a twist that could become a revolution of its own…
Much like other changes similar to this one, cable operators and networks are dragging their feet when it comes to 4k. Special filming equipment is necessary for the 4k experience to make it to a 4k-ready television set, and that’s leaving the door open for something else to take center stage.
Enter online streaming.
Yes, the Internet is continuing its incredible expansion, and it could soon take over the way we all enjoy our favorite TV shows.
Companies like Netflix and Google are already offering 4k in some areas, and with game-changers like the announcement of the first-ever online-streamed NFL game through Yahoo!, what has become the traditional way of viewing TV programs could be in serious danger.
More and more signs are pointing toward 4k technology and online streaming taking over television, and that means there could potentially be real opportunities to profit…
For instance, glass makers for 4k TV sets, like Corning (GLW), would stand to greatly benefit from a paradigm shift in the television industry.
A new generation of chip hardware used by 4k TVs would also make chip makers like Nvidia (NVDA), which is already at the forefront of the 4k revolution, stand to climb significantly in both popularity and value.
And the companies that manage to strike meaningful deals with those leading the way will likely be on the rise as well.
Paying close attention to the 4k and streaming revolution (and knowing how and when to invest accordingly) could very well make your account rapidly expand…
