Are you tired of all the market volatility? Sick of watching our stocks jump one day and then crash again the next? Losing sleep over your portfolio?
你厭倦了所有的市場波動嗎？厭倦了看着我們的股票一天暴漲，第二天又暴跌？因為你的投資組合而失眠？
If so, then you're going to want to hear this.
如果是這樣的話，你會想聽這個的。
The best-kept secret on Wall Street is that if you really want to make big money in the market, you need to ignore near-term volatility.
華爾街保守得最好的祕密是，如果你真的想要在市場上賺大錢，你需要忽略近期波動性。
Forget inflation and the Fed. Forget the Russia-Ukraine war and Covid-19. And forget supply chain disruptions and labor shortages.
忘掉通脹和美聯儲吧。忘掉俄烏戰爭和新冠肺炎吧。忘了供應鏈中斷和勞動力短缺吧。
The best way to become a millionaire in the market isn't to buy oil for a tariff-induced 20% pop. And it's not to short bonds for a 15% gain because the Fed is hiking rates.
在市場上成為百萬富翁的最好方法不是嗎以關税導致的20%的漲幅購買石油。而且，做空債券並不是為了獲得15%的收益，因為美聯儲正在加息。
Those are fine trades. There's nothing wrong with them — outside of the fact that they aren't going to make you a millionaire. They're going to make the rich richer, and that's about it. For those of us investing $10,000 into single stocks, those "trades" will make us a whopping $2,000 or $3,000.
這些都是不錯的交易。他們沒有什麼問題--除了他們不是會讓你成為百萬富翁。他們會讓富人變得更富有，僅此而已。對於我們這些將1萬美元投資於單一股票的人來説，這些“交易”將使我們獲得2,000或3,000美元的鉅額收入。
Cool? Sure. Life-changing? Far from it.
涼爽的?好的。改變人生？差得遠呢。
So… how do we go about scoring mind-blowing returns in the stock market? We ignore the noise!
所以…我們如何在股市中獲得令人驚歎的回報？我們忽略了噪音！
Ignore the Market Noise
忽略市場噪音
Let me let you in on a little secret. The best way to become an investment millionaire is to find a small group of startups that have world-changing potential. Buy those stocks, and simply wait for them to, indeed, change the world.
讓我告訴你一個小祕密。成為投資百萬富翁的最好方法是找到一小羣具有改變世界潛力的初創公司。買入這些股票，然後簡單地等待它們真正改變世界。
Doing just that with computer stocks Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) in the 1980s would've turned a $10,000 investment in each into more than $46 million today.
計算機股就是這樣做的微軟(納斯達克：MSFT)和蘋果(納斯達克：AAPL)在20世紀80年代，每一項投資都會變成10,000美元以上4600萬美元今天。
Had you done it with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) in the late 1990s, you'd have turned $10,000 into more than $16 million. And if you'd done it with Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) in the late 2000s, you'd have turned $10,000 into $3 million. A $10,000 investment into EV maker Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) in the early 2010s would be worth more than $2 million today.
你有沒有做過這件事亞馬遜(納斯達克：AMZN)在20世紀90年代末，你會把1萬美元變成1600多萬美元。如果你用一種網飛(納斯達克：NFLX)在本世紀頭十年末，你會把1萬美元變成300萬美元。向電動汽車製造商投資1萬美元特斯拉(納斯達克：特斯拉在2010年代初)今天的價值將超過200萬美元。
We're literally talking about millionaire-maker opportunities here. We aren't talking about making 7% per year with an index fund or collecting 3% dividends on Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO). At that rate, you'd turn $10,000 into a million bucks by… wait for it… 2091.
我們在這裏談論的是成為百萬富翁的機會。我們不是在談論用指數基金每年賺7%或收取3%的股息可口可樂紐約證券交易所代碼：高鬆年)。按照這個速度，你會在…上把10,000美元變成一百萬美元等着看吧…2091年。
Most folks don't want to wait until they've been passed for decades to become millionaires. They want the opportunity to turn thousand-dollar investments into million-dollar paydays over the course of 10, 15 or 20 years.
大多數人不想等到幾十年後才成為百萬富翁。他們希望有機會在10年、15年或20年內將1000美元的投資轉化為100萬美元的發薪日。

A New Type of Battery to Change the World
一種改變世界的新型電池
One of the world's most hyped-up investment megatrends these days is the Electric Vehicle Revolution. That is, investors and consumers alike seem convinced that the world is rapidly shifting toward electric cars, busses, planes, and more. Everything's going electric! This is especially true in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine increasing fossil fuel costs to unbearable levels.
這些天來，世界上最炒作的投資大趨勢之一是電動汽車革命。也就是説，投資者和消費者似乎都相信，世界正在迅速轉向電動汽車、公交車、飛機等。一切都通電了！在俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭將化石燃料成本推高至無法承受的水平之後，情況尤其如此。
But, the plain truth about the EV Revolution is that everything won't go electric until we make better batteries.
但是，關於電動汽車革命的一個顯而易見的事實是，一切不會電動化直到我們製造出更好的電池.
To understand why, we need to take a quick trip back to chemistry class…
為了理解其中的原因，我們需要快速回到化學課…
Batteries comprise three things: a cathode, an anode, and an electrolyte. Batteries work by promoting the flow of ions between the cathode and anode through the electrolyte.
電池由三部分組成：負極、負極和電解液。電池的工作原理是通過電解液促進離子在正負極之間的流動。
Conventional lithium-ion batteries are built on liquid battery chemistry. That is, they comprise a solid cathode and anode, with a liquid electrolyte solution connecting the two.
傳統的鋰離子電池是建立在液體電池化學基礎上的。也就是説，它們由固體陰極和陽極組成，並用液體電解質溶液連接兩者。
These batteries have worked wonders for years. But due to liquid electrolytes' physical constraints, they're now reaching their limit in terms of energy density. If we want our phones, watches and EVs to last longer and charge faster, we need a fundamentally different battery.
這些電池多年來一直髮揮着神奇的作用。但由於液體電解液的物理限制，它們現在的能量密度達到了極限。如果我們想要我們的手機、手錶和電動汽車使用更長時間，充電更快，我們需要一個從根本上不同的電池。
The Solid-State Battery's Immense Potential
固態電池的巨大潛力
Insert the solid-state battery.
插入固態電池。
With these batteries, the name pretty much says it all. Take the liquid electrolyte solution in conventional batteries. Compress it into a solid. Create a small, hyper-compact solid battery that, since it has zero wasted space, lasts far longer and charges far faster.
有了這些電池，這個名字幾乎就説明瞭一切。以傳統電池中的液體電解液為例。把它壓縮成固體。創造一種小型、超緊湊的固態電池，因為它沒有浪費空間，續航時間更長，充電速度也更快。
Of course, the implications of solid-state battery chemistry are huge.
當然，固態電池化學的影響是巨大的。
Solid-state batteries could allow our phones to sustain power for days or enable our smartwatches to fully charge in seconds. And they could even be the key that allows EVs to drive for thousands of miles without needing to recharge.
固態電池可以讓我們的手機維持幾天的電量，或者讓我們的智能手錶在幾秒鐘內充滿電。它們甚至可能是讓電動汽車無需充電就能行駛數千英里的關鍵。
That's why solid-state batteries are dubbed by insiders as "forever batteries." And it's why these batteries are the critical technology we need to propel the EV Revolution into its next phase of supercharged growth.
這就是為什麼固態電池被業內人士戲稱為“永遠的電池“這就是為什麼這些電池是我們推動電動汽車革命進入下一階段增壓增長所需的關鍵技術。
Huge Battery Breakthrough Reported Just Yesterday
昨天剛剛報道的巨型電池突破
While the theory behind solid-state batteries is exciting, the application of such next-generation tech has been essentially nonexistent to date.
雖然固態電池背後的理論令人興奮，但這種下一代技術的應用到目前為止基本上還不存在。
Why? Two major challenges.
為什麼？兩大挑戰。
First, solid-state batteries are exceptionally expensive to make. Second, they tend to short-circuit because of something called "dendrites." They're cracks that form in the solid electrolyte substance over time.
首先，固態電池的製造成本格外昂貴。其次，它們傾向於短路，因為有一種叫做“樹突”的東西。它們是隨着時間的推移在固體電解質物質中形成的裂縫。
But an exciting and promising tech startup by the name of QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) is solving these problems as we speak.
但一家令人興奮且前景看好的科技初創公司Quantumscape紐約證券交易所代碼：QS)正在解決我們所説的這些問題。
Indeed, in its quarterly earnings report from just yesterday, QuantumScape confirmed that these once-mythical batteries will be a reality very soon.
事實上，就在昨天發佈的季度收益報告中，Quantumscape證實，這些曾經神話般的電池很快就會成為現實。
In late 2020, QuantumScape published data that showed it had created a small solid-state battery that worked in real-world conditions. The company did this by developing a proprietary ceramic electrolyte with high dendritic resistance. Essentially, it allowed QuantumScape to create a solid-state battery that didn't form dendrites through charging cycles.
2020年末，Quantumscape公佈的數據顯示，它創造了一種小型固態電池，可以在現實世界中使用。該公司通過開發一種具有高樹枝狀電阻的專有陶瓷電解液做到了這一點。從本質上説，它允許Quantumscape創造出一種固態電池，在充電週期中不會形成樹枝狀結構。
The only problem? It was a very, very small battery that couldn't be used to power much of anything. Specifically, it was a single-layer battery cell.
唯一的問題是？這是一個非常，非常小電池，不能用來為很多東西供電。具體來説，這是一個單層電池單元。
QuantumScape's Lightspeed Progress
Quantumscape的光速進步
So, over the past 18 months, QuantumScape has worked tirelessly to scale up its tiny solid-state battery solution.
因此，在過去的18個月裏，Quantumscape一直在不知疲倦地擴大其微型固態電池解決方案的規模。
As reported yesterday, the company's progress has been mind-bogglingly impressive.
正如昨天報道的那樣，該公司的進展是令人難以置信的印象.
In late 2021, QuantumScape illustrated that its solid-state batteries performed in 4-layer formats up to 800 charging cycles. A quarter later, the company scaled successful results to 10-layer batteries up to 800 cycles. And just this past quarter, QuantumScape successfully demonstrated its 16-layer battery's successful results at over 500 cycles.
2021年末，Quantumscape展示了其固態電池以4層格式運行，充電週期高達800次。一個季度後，該公司將成功的結果擴展到10層電池，最高可循環800次。就在上個季度，Quantumscape成功地展示了其16層電池在500多次循環中的成功結果。
In other words, QuantumScape is sprinting toward the successful commercialization of forever batteries. Given the technical data reported yesterday, we firmly believe that QuantumScape will launch workable forever battery samples in 2022-23. And by 2030, this company will produce millions of batteries every year to power nearly everything.
換句話説，Quantumscape正在向永遠電池的成功商業化衝刺。鑑於昨天公佈的技術數據，我們堅信Quantumscape將在2022-23年推出可行的永久電池樣品。到2030年，該公司每年將生產數百萬塊電池，為幾乎所有東西提供動力。
It has been confirmed. The Forever Battery Revolution has arrived.
這一點已經得到證實。永遠的電池革命已經到來。
QuantumScape stock offers one way to play this revolution. But it's far from the only one…
Quantumscape股票為這場革命提供了一種方式。但它遠不是唯一一個…

低於3美元的…而且，這家公司可能會在未來十年改變世界。
The upside potential in this tiny stock is enormous – so big, in fact, that unlike QuantumScape, I can't write its name in this post.
這隻小股票的上行潛力是巨量-如此之大，實際上，與Quantumscape不同，我不能在這篇帖子中寫下它的名字。
But, I did just give a presentation at the landmark Hudson Theater in Southern California, where I told a group of 60 people all about this tiny tech stock.
但是，我剛剛在南加州的地標性建築哈德遜劇院做了一個演講，在那裏我向一羣60人講述了這隻小小的科技股。
And right now, I'm going to pull back the curtains on that event, and give you a front-row seat to learning about the small $3 stock at the epicenter of the biggest technological revolution of our lifetimes.
現在，我要拉開這場活動的帷幕，讓你們坐在前排，瞭解我們這個時代最大的技術革命的震中--3美元的小股票。
