George Gilder’s “5G Killer” Stocks – Exposed

In a recent investment teaser, tech futurist George Gilder has been luring subscribers into his investment newsletter service by teasing the opportunity to invest in “The 5G Killer” technology. He teases several stocks here… and it’s these stocks that we’ll be exposing right now – for free!

According to Gilder, this “once-forgotten tech… could bring the $13.1 trillion 5G revolution to a grinding halt”…

George Gilder has been called a lot of things over the years, most notably he was called “America’s Foremost Tech Prophet” by The Economist. And the reason for this has been his uncanny ability to predict changes in technology and future trends. Some of his more notable predictions include predicting the death of cable TV in 1994 and the smartphone revolution before the iPhone. Now of course he isn’t able to predict the future of tech to perfection, but has been rather successful in seeing which directions things might unfold, in a more general sense.

Right now he claims we could see the end of 5G. Yes, that’s right, 5G is just getting started and we’re being told that it could be the end of it already… all thanks to some “5G Killer” tech that has something to do with “Docket 18-295”.

What Is This 5G Killer Tech?

As we’re told, this “5G killer” technology has something to do with Docket 18-295.

Gilder also makes mention of a “Docket 18-413”, which was a document from 1985 that allowed new tech firms to innovate across the wireless communication spectrum.

And that’s what this new docket… Docket 18-295 is all about. In a nutshell, Docket 18-295 is a document that was just released in 2020 that opens up a new part of the wireless communication spectrum to public companies for the first time. In the past, the 6 GHz part of the spectrum was reserved for US military use only, but now this has changed.

Gilder claims that access to this new 6 GHz part of the spectrum is bringing about “WiFi 6E enabled” routers and these will be “significantly faster than even the best that 5G has to offer”.

In the US wifi has traditionally been operating on the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, and with new wifi 6 devices having the ability to operate on 6 GHz there is a big opportunity for companies to bring faster connections to internet users accross the US.

The opportunity here is pretty obvious. We all want faster internet, and with this new part of the spectrum being opened to the public, we can have it. Not only that, but wifi 6 will also be able to handle more connected devices and could decrease battery drainage on such.

Will WIFI 6 Really “Kill” 5G?

Probably not, which is why the name “5G Killer” that George Gilder is using here is a bit misleading.

What we’re more likely to see in the future is a world were 5G and wifi 6 work together to bring us higher speeds and increased capacity.

Wifi and cellular networks have always coexisted, so why would this change now?

Wifi is a LAN (local area network) that we use indoors, generally speaking. And cellular networks like 5G are WAN (wide area networks) that we use for both indoors and outdoors… again, generally speaking.

Theres is no reason wifi 6 will kill 5G. Wifi will continue to be used more for indoors due to it’s lesser cost of deployement, and 5G will be used more for outdoors because of its longer range (although not very long). The two technologies compliment eachother.

Gilder’s “5G Killer” Stocks

I’m not going to go too much into detail here because we’ve actually already exposed these stocks in a past article. This is because Gilder’s new “5G Killer” teaser actually isn’t that new. It is more like a re-hashed old teaser that he slapped a shiny new name on.

Anyways, Gilder teases 3 stocks to get in on this new opportunity. Normally you’d have to buy into his advisory service called The George Gilder Report to get access to the report (Three Spectrum Millionaire-Makers) that provides the details on these stocks. But luckily for you, you came across Green Bull Research and we help expose stocks like this for free.

Let’s go over some of the clues and expose them, shall we?

• Stock #1 makes “the computer chips required to tap into the new 6 GHz band” and we are also told that this company already supplies computer chips to Apple, Comcast, Google, Microsoft, and even Tesla. We also know that Gilder recommended this firm in the past, and claims it “soared more than 20x in the next four years” after his recommendation. Now he thinks it’s a must-own again.

The pick here matches niclely with Qualcomm (QCOM). They have already started making wifi 6 chipsets and Gilder has been bullish on the stock for years, having been recommending it since the year 2000 and maybe earlier (hard to find information earlier than that). Not only that, but from the company’s 1992 lows to it’s peak in early 2000, it’s stock did soar over 20x. So it could be that Gilder recommended the stock as far back as then.

• Stock #2 “already supplies close to 58 million homes and businesses across America” and “could be installing its technology in your neighborhood”. We’re also told that “its network is already growing at an exponential rate – doubling roughly every 18-24 months“.

Comcast (CMCSA) looks like the pick here. When they become the nation’s largest internet provider there were all sorts of reports about how they covered nearly “58 million homes and businesses“. And the company also “has increased speeds 17 times in 17 years and doubles the capacity of its broadband network every 18-24 months” (source). It’s a good match here.

• Stock #3 “just made one of the smartest acquisitions in history. It now supplies nine of the world’s top ten global internet networks and the top six internet content providers”. It’s also a company that he’s known the founder of for over 2 decades.

Last but not least, this third stock pick looks like Infinera (INFN). They do supply most of the top internet networks and Gilder has meet David Welch, one of the company’s founders, over the years and Welch even spoke at some of Gilder’s conferences, such as his Telecosm 2009, but the clues here are pretty vague. That said, Gilder has talked about and recommended the company in the past, so it’s likely this is the one being teased once again.

Is the Opportunity That Great?

If you’re looking for life-changing profits then these stocks probably aren’t for you. They are all bluechip and it certainly wouldn’t be easy for them to double or triple in price. But if you’re looking for safer, less-risky investments that could provided you with market-beating returns, then you should consider them.

The market emerging around wifi 6 does present some good investment opportunities, but these just aren’t ones that are going to make you rich. As always, you have to try to balance risk to reward, and with these comanies the risk is much lower than most, but so is the potential reward.

Quick Recap & Conclusion

• George Gilder is teasing the opportunity to invest in “5G Killer” technology.
• All the details on these stocks are in his report titled Three Spectrum Millionaire-Makers, which you only can get if you buy into his The George Gilder Report newsletter service.
• This is a re-hashed teaser that has been used in the past.
• We’ve just exposed the three stocks Gilder is teasing for free – Qualcomm (QCOM), Comcast (CMCSA), and Infinera (INFN) look like positive matches here.

And that’s it! You’re welcome!
