Make no mistake about it. 2020 will go down as e-commerce’s “seminal moment.”
The novel coronavirus pandemic forced the physical economy across the globe to shut down in early 2020. Commerce rapidly pivoted online — and although the physical economy has gradually reopened since, commerce has remained heavily in the online channel, with U.S. e-commerce sales soaring a record 45% in the second quarter of 2020.
Spoiler alert: This shift is not temporary. It’s permanent. Commerce is going to stay in the online channel.
Why? Superior convenience. Going digital means getting more convenient, and history shows that once things go digital and become infinitely more convenient, there’s no going back (think movies, games, dating, etc).
Of course, astute investors will point out that the e-commerce revolution was already underway well before COVID-19 ever showed up. Globally, e-commerce sales have risen by more than 500% since 2010.
But the e-commerce wave that swept through retail in the 2010s was “uneven”.
It was led by giants — like Amazon, Walmart, and Target — and in high-traffic and easily “shippable” shopping categories — like apparel (30% e-commerce penetration) and consumer electronics (43% e-commerce penetration).
Meanwhile, certain companies and shopping categories were left behind. For example, only 60% of small businesses even had a website before COVID-19.
For those lagging companies and categories, COVID-19 is a wake-up call: digitize or die.
Consequently, over the next few years, the shopping segments which lagged in the e-commerce revolution of the 2010s, will play catch-up… and in a big way.
This “catch-up” dynamic will power a second e-commerce wave throughout the 2020s which will — like the first wave of the 2010s — unlock trillions of dollars in value.
Today, we will show you to how play this second e-commerce boom. It’s by buying a small online retail stock that might represent the market’s best turnaround story…

Dump America’s Most Popular Brand NOW
During times of great volatility, investors often cling to what they’re familiar with… including the stocks of companies they know best.
Fear and conventional wisdom push people to the biggest brands.
But what if I told you that America’s top stock picker — a man with 40 recommendations that have gained at least 1,000% in his career — believes that America’s most popular brand is a “must sell” right now?
That’s exactly what Eric Fry is saying…
Because this giant of the past was doomed with or without the fear of a pandemic. Eric believes it’s one of 25 big-name stocks that are going to experience hard times, even if a coronavirus cure is found tomorrow.
And, remember, Eric is the legendary trader that accurately predicted the collapse of more than 70 stocks. That includes Cisco (fell 75% in a year after his prediction), Tyco (fell 74% in the year after his prediction), and Countrywide Financial (fell 87% in the two years after his prediction).
Instead, Eric believes anyone with money in the market should focus on four companies that are in position right now to help people capture huge market gains.
You probably haven’t heard of a single one of these firms…
