MercadoLibre (NASDAQ: MELI) has already been a big winner for investors who got in years ago. But it still has massive growth potential, as well as several newer businesses still in the relatively early stages of their evolution. In this video, I'll discuss why MercadoLibre is one of the largest investments in my own stock portfolio and some of the reasons its best days could still be ahead of it.

Don’t miss this second chance at a potentially lucrative opportunity

Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you’ll want to hear this.

On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a “Double Down” stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you’re worried you’ve already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it’s too late. And the numbers speak for themselves:

  • Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you’d have $338,103!*
  • Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you’d have $48,005!*
  • Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you’d have $495,679!*

Right now, we’re issuing “Double Down” alerts for three incredible companies, and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.
