FN Media Group Presents GlobalInvestmentDaily.com Market Commentary

LONDON, July 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Big Tech may be in for a major crisis in the coming months, all because of a global shortage virtually nobody's talking about. And it has nothing to do with the shortages we've seen worldwide in everything from computer chips to lumber to chicken wings.  Mentioned in today's commentary includes:  Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Virgin Galactic (NASDAQ:SPCE), Maxar Technologies (NYSE:MAXR).

This supply squeeze runs far deeper and has the potential to crush major blue-chip companies if the situation doesn't dramatically improve soon. That's because Big Tech companies like Amazon, Alphabet, and Netflix all depend on this gas to keep their servers running around the clock.

The supply crunch has helped junior producers, like Avanti Energy Inc. (AVN.V – ARGYF), to raise over $100 million across the industry over the last year. It's also sent share prices parabolic for an average of 500% gains across these producers.

High-Grade Discovery Found in the Heart of Helium Country

With the demand for helium continuing to rise and the world's biggest supplier in the industry moving out, it's created the perfect recipe for a boom for small helium producers. And Avanti just made a major announcement that has the potential to make them a huge player in the United States market.

Their world-class team just announced that they're working to acquire the helium rights to approximately 62,000 acres of land in Montana. And their neighbors have shown grades of up to 2% Helium and 96% Nitrogen in multiple targets nearby. And now, Avanti Energy has discovered several closed structural highs reaching up to 170m of relief on the property for which they're set to acquire a license.

After doing a detailed analysis of both the property and the surrounding area, they were so confident in what they saw that they offered to buy licenses for roughly 50,000 acres of land. That makes it nearly 5x the size of their entire land portfolio before the acquisition of the license.

While many aren't yet aware of the looming helium crisis, potential discoveries like these could be crucial for Big Tech and other major blue-chip companies in the near future.

Supply Squeeze Putting Big Tech in a Pinch

Avanti's (AVN.V – ARGYF) announcement could have tremendous implications as we're in the middle of the biggest supply squeeze we've seen in years. And it's all surrounding a chemical that the entire world relies upon.

Without sufficient helium for these companies, it could mean no internet, no computers or cell phones, no computer chips for the latest vehicles, and no MRIs for those who desperately need them.

For over seven decades, the US Federal Helium Reserve (FHR) has provided roughly 40% of the world's helium supply. The supply has been slowly dwindling for years… And in September, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is set to auction off the rest of the helium to the private markets.

That could send helium prices sky-high...This is why with helium demand now set to outpace supply until at least 2025, the race is on for junior helium producers to make new discoveries to even the score. 

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has been one of Big Tech's most steadfast adopters of green energy. And that's largely due to to Steve Jobs' incredible vision. From data centers to the company's products and even the packaging, Apple has committed to a greener tomorrow in a big way, and its doing so with the help of renewable energy, alternative fuels and sustainable materials. As one of Big Tech's leaders in sustainability, Apple will be a company to watch as new materials are introduced into the energy mix.

Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG)

 is an American multinational corporation that engages in the Internet, technology, and media industries. Alphabet has been a public company since 2004, when it was created as a subsidiary of Google. It became its own entity in 2015 with the introduction of its new parent company Alphabet which replaced Google as its corporate umbrella. Alphabet is also going all in on its green energy objectives, powering data facilities with hydrogen and other renewable sources.

"We are committed to doing our part. Sustainability has been a core value for us since Larry and Sergey founded Google two decades ago. We were the first major company to become carbon neutral in 2007," CEO Sundar Pichai explained.

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)

is one of the world's largest and most powerful companies. They are known for their Windows operating system, Xbox gaming console, Office suite, and Microsoft Surface tablet series. A few years ago, the company announced a major reorganization to focus on three areas: intelligent cloud services; intelligent edge experiences; and more personal computing experiences. These changes were made as a result of Satya Nadella's vision for "cloud-first, mobile-first" technology strategy back in July 2014 when he took over as CEO from Steve Ballmer who has been at the helm since 2000. 

Microsoft has made great strides in green energy. One of the latest innovations is a Microsoft data center that will use an innovative process to convert carbon dioxide into fuel, called "carbon capture and conversion." 

Virgin Galactic (NASDAQ:SPCE) is a company that offers space flights for civilians. They offer the opportunity to visit space and experience weightlessness, among other things. Virgin Galactic has partnered with several celebrities in order to promote their business, including Justin Bieber and Ashton Kutcher. 

Virgin Galactic ushered in a new kind of space race when it went public through a SPAC at the end of 2019. Since then, there has been a wave of similar space companies, with investors writing blank checks to try to cash in on the new industry.

Maxar Technologies (NYSE:MAXR) is an aerospace and defense company that was founded in 2003. They have a variety of services, including satellite development, space robotics, and earth observations. One of their most well-known products is the Canadarm2 robotic arm for the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS has been operational since 1998 with more than 100 missions to date.

PAID ADVERTISEMENT. This article is a paid advertisement. GlobalInvestmentDaily.com and its owners, managers, employees, and assigns (collectively "the Publisher") is often paid by one or more of the profiled companies or a third party to disseminate these types of communications. In this case, the Publisher has been compensated by Avanti Energy Inc. ("Avanti" or "AVN") to conduct investor awareness advertising and marketing. Avanti paid the Publisher to produce and disseminate four similar articles and additional banner ads at a rate of seventy thousand US dollars per article. This compensation should be viewed as a major conflict with our ability to be unbiased. 

Readers should beware that third parties, profiled companies, and/or their affiliates may liquidate shares of the profiled companies at any time, including at or near the time you receive this communication, which has the potential to hurt share prices. Frequently companies profiled in our articles experience a large increase in volume and share price during the course of investor awareness marketing, which often ends as soon as the investor awareness marketing ceases. The investor awareness marketing may be as brief as one day, after which a large decrease in volume and share price may likely occur.

This communication is not, and should not be construed to be, an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security. Neither this communication nor the Publisher purport to provide a complete analysis of any company or its financial position. The Publisher is not, and does not purport to be, a broker-dealer or registered investment adviser. This communication is not, and should not be construed to be, personalized investment advice directed to or appropriate for any particular investor. Any investment should be made only after consulting a professional investment advisor and only after reviewing the financial statements and other pertinent corporate information about the company. Further, readers are advised to read and carefully consider the Risk Factors identified and discussed in the advertised company's SEC, SEDAR and/or other government filings. Investing in securities, particularly microcap securities, is speculative and carries a high degree of risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This communication is based on information generally available to the public and on interviews with company management, and does not (to the Publisher's knowledge, as confirmed by Avanti) contain any material, non-public information. The information on which it is based is believed to be reliable. Nevertheless, the Publisher cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of the information.

SHARE OWNERSHIP. The Publisher owns shares and / or options of the featured company and therefore has an additional incentive to see the featured company's stock perform well. The Publisher does not undertake any obligation to notify the market when it decides to buy or sell shares of the issuer in the market. The Publisher will be buying and selling shares of the featured company for its own profit. This is why we stress that you conduct extensive due diligence as well as seek the advice of your financial advisor or a registered broker-dealer before investing in any securities.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. This publication contains forward-looking information which is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements in this publication include that prices for helium will significantly increase due to global demand and use in a wide array of industries (including key technology sectors) and that helium will retain its value in future due to the demand increases and overall shortage of supply; that Avanti can pursue exploration of the recently acquired licenses of property in Alberta; that Avanti's licenses in respect of the Alberta property can achieve drilling and mining success for helium; that Avanti will be able to acquire the rights to helium on the 12,000 acres of land in Montana pursuant to its recent letter of intent announced on April 16, 2021, and the helium rights to the ~50,000 acres of land in Montana pursuant to its recent letter of intent announced on June 14, 2021; that the Avanti team will be able to close on the aforementioned Montana helium license acquisitions; that the Avanti team will be able to develop and implement helium exploration models, including their own proprietary models, that may result in successful exploration and development efforts; that historical geological information and estimations will prove to be accurate or at least very indicative of helium; that high helium content targets exist in the Alberta and both Montana projects; and that Avanti will be able to carry out its business plans, including timing for drilling and exploration. These forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking information.  Risks that could change or prevent these statements from coming to fruition include that demand for helium is not as great as expected; that alternative commodities or compounds are used in applications which currently use helium, thus reducing the need for helium in the future; that the Company may not fulfill the requirements under its Alberta licenses for various reasons or otherwise cannot pursue exploration on the project as planned or at all; that the Company may not be able to acquire the helium rights to the Montana lands as contemplated in the letter of intent or at all; that the Avanti team may be unable to develop any helium exploration models, including proprietary models, which allow successful exploration efforts on any of the Company's current or future projects; that Avanti may not be able to finance its intended drilling programs to explore for helium or may otherwise not raise sufficient funds to carry out its business plans; that geological interpretations and technological results based on current data may change with more detailed information, analysis or testing; and that despite promise, there may be no commercially viable helium or other resources on any of Avanti's properties. The forward-looking information contained herein is given as of the date hereof and we assume no responsibility to update or revise such information to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law.
