I'm a dyed-in-the-wool contrarian, but I admit putting your hard-earned money in a hated investment that's been falling for months - or even years - is easier said than done. It's a tough, counterintuitive step to take.

The truth is, investing isn't different.
Contrarian investing is the purest expression of the "buy low, sell high" paradigm. It can net those brave enough to be "first in" some outsized long-term profits.
That's why I'm excited to show you an asset that couldn't be more hated right now; after a years-long struggle, it's at the "point of maximum disdain."
And that should be your first clue that the profits here could be huge...
