Mad Musk: Beyond Thunderdome
The financial elite in this country - from multibillionaires to corporate executives - know something big is about to change in the world.
Ford, GM, Honda, Toyota... all the major carmakers are focusing massive research on creating whole fleets of electric vehicles (EVs).
Major oil and gas conglomerates are shifting research away from exploration and production of fossil fuels and towards renewable resources like solar, geothermal, and wind.
They're throwing billions of dollars at a problem they know is coming to a head. But most of the world doesn't even realize what's happening. The end of the world as we've come to know it is near.
And the global financial elite are preparing for the downfall of oil and the rise of renewable energy. They're getting ready for the death of the fuel tank and the birth of the battery.
And there's a battle going on right now. It's between two of the richest men on earth. But very few people even know they're at war. And even fewer know why...
Powering the New World Order
You see, there's a widely sought-after resource that both moguls need in order to establish their dominance in the new world order that's being created.
It's difficult to come by. And it's getting more and more expensive by the minute. In fact, while this battle has been coming to a head over the past several years, this resource has increased in price by nearly 500%.
But that's just the beginning. And that's because without this material, neither of these two billionaires will be able to accomplish his goal of providing power to the new world.
That's because this resource is the backbone of every electric vehicle, every energy storage device, every single thing that will be powering the entire world in just a few decades.
And there's not enough of it to go around.
In This Corner
Most of us know Elon Musk as the PayPal billionaire who's thrown his financial might behind electric vehicle maker Tesla and solar energy company SolarCity. So, it should be no surprise that he's doing whatever he can to secure the future of his prize jewel: Tesla Motors.
But the other contender in this knock-down-drag-out cage match may come as a surprise. It's none other than famed investor Warren Buffett. That's right. The Oracle of Omaha is throwing his full financial might into a battle with Mr. Musk for EV supremacy.
Back in 2008, Mr. Buffett bought a multibillion-dollar stake in the biggest electric carmaker in the world, BYD. And he's trying to push Elon Musk and Tesla Motors right out of the market.
There just isn't enough room for both companies to exist. So, it's become victory or death in what could be the biggest fight for global domination since WWII.
But this fight isn't going to be waged with weapons of mass destruction. It'll be fought with dollars. Nearly 100 billion of them, to be exact.
Elon Musk has an estimated net worth of around $21 billion. Warren Buffett has almost $77 billion worth of ammunition to put into the fight. And they're both going all in to win the war.

That's because that resource I mentioned earlier is difficult to get. And there's a limited amount of it that comes online every year.
In fact, there's only enough produced right now to support one of these two EV megaliths. You see, for Elon Musk to make good on his promise to deliver 500,000 new Teslas each year, he'll need access to every ounce of the resource.
That's 35,000 metric tons a year. The entire world's supply.
And with Warren Buffett's BYD trying to maintain its supremacy in the EV market, that means we're about to see a bidding war the likes of which the world has never known.
But the battle doesn't stop there. In fact, it's only going to get hotter as time goes on.
Global demand for EVs is projected to rise drastically in the coming years. And there just isn't enough of this resource for these two companies to share.
With two of the richest people on earth battling for control of this precious material, prices are only going to keep climbing.
Two Billionaires Enter, Hundreds of Billionaires Leave
This cage match isn't going to be like the "Thunderdome" in Mad Max, though. While only one of these billionaires can win the battle, hundreds - perhaps even thousands - more will be created thanks to it.
That's right. Two billionaires are going to war, and hundreds of average people like you and me are going to reap the rewards of victory.
With such a tight supply and massively growing demand fueled by these two going at it, the price of this material is going to skyrocket.
The 500% increase I showed you earlier is going to seem like mere pennies in comparison. And with the right investments, you could see your profits follow the exact same trajectory.
I'm talking about $1,000 turning into over $40,000. Or $10,000 into over $400,000. Just think: a $50,000 investment made right now could be worth over $2 million before this fight is over.
But you can't just go throwing your money at any company. And you sure don't want to put it into either of the companies at the center of the fight. There's no way of telling who'll win. And nobody wants to be on the losing side of this historic contest.
But my colleague Keith Kohl has zeroed in on three companies that will reap all the victor's spoils no matter which billionaire comes out on top.
"I Coulda Been a Contender!"
I want you to have the chance to get in on them before their stock prices shoot through the roof.
Keith's put together a report detailing the stakes of the battle between Musk and Buffett. And he's included all the details of the three companies singled out to collect the billions of dollars these two heavyweights will be throwing around.
I implore you to take some time out of your schedule to read this groundbreaking research. It could mean the difference between retiring in Boca Raton and retiring to your own private island. Or the difference between buying a 25' fishing boat and a 75' yacht.
Heck, if Musk comes out on top, it could give you enough from just a $1,000 investment to buy your very own Tesla Model 3. Or, if Buffett's BYD wins the day, that same $1,000 could buy you a brand new BYD EV300.
But if you hesitate or decide to wait until a winner is declared, you'll be left contemplating what could have been and dreaming of how you could have spent those monstrous profits.
That's why I'm begging you to give this report a read. I don't want to see any of my readers miss out on this kind of opportunity. I promise, it'll be well worth your time.

A new technology is currently setting the world on fire.
A report by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) sees it as "the biggest commercial opportunity in today's fast changing economy..."
It's projected to add a stunning $15.7 trillion in new wealth to the global economy over the next decade.
To put that in perspective, this is roughly:
13 times the size of Australia's GDP19 times Apple's market cap186 times Bill Gates' net worth4,132 times the cost of building One World Trade CenterFor you and me, it means a once-in-a-lifetime chance at riding this monstrous wave of wealth creation. Click here for the details.
