Summary

Teeka Tiwari, editor of the newsletter for Palm Beach Research, talks about some of the biggest technology trends that will impact the world over the next 10 years. Teeka was an early investor in Apple (before the first iPhone was created) and also in 3-D printing companies. He will show you how to spot huge trends before they are mentioned in mainstream media. Frank then breaks down his recent call to buy General Electric. The company made a major announcement to sell off its finance division and return $90 billion to investors over the next four years. The stock responded with its biggest percentage gain in six years. Frank's subscribers are already up more than 10% on GE - just a few days after he recommended it in his newsletter. He will tell you why GE has much more upside ahead and how this company is a much better long-term stock for retirees - instead of McDonald's and Proctor & Gamble.

0:50.5	It was two days ahead of their big asset sale, buyback news with the stock pop more than 10% of the day.
0:55.0	It was kind of funny.
0:58.0	Yes, the emails came in, you know, I started looking at the news and I taped Squawk Box all the time too if I don't get a chance to watch in the morning and listen to it and that's when the news broke.
1:07.8	So we're just calling up everybody at TV stations. I was watching it.
1:12.1	Not just seeing it be seen of a Fox business, reading the stories that came out.
1:16.0	I'd have to tell you, 99% of the people that they got on TV and to write about this have absolutely no clue what's going on with this

1:29.7	on GE, who can we call? Okay, let's call that guy, let's call that guy. It doesn't matter if it doesn't own the stock.
1:36.0	It was so terrible the coverage on GE and what was going on with this company.
1:40.0	It's just amazing. I mean the comments were the 50 billion dollar buyback. Do they have nothing else to do with this cash?
