If you had invested $1000 in Tesla 8 years ago, it would be worth $20,000 today. What are some of the up-and-coming companies, and how do we spot them?

How do I spot potential in companies/industries?

I believe we never can spot them. There is 'survivor bias'. So many listed companies default. As s start up they often are held in Venture Funds, even after listing competition is strong. And in the end every business rises and then declines (secularly).

I had a crystal ball:

Meituan Dianping, recently.

Missed out on Alibaba as I didn't have a proper brokerage account back then.

Joke aside.

As shared by another community member - US and China are the better markets to invest in + if the companies are operating there, predominantly.

For some alpha returns, frontier markets but you gotta have a long long time horizon and a strong belief in the founding/management team.

Tough call.
