Two weeks ago, I made a video claiming that Oracle is the stock that you should be paying a lot of attention to because this is the next AI stock that is going to shoot to the  Two weeks later, Oracle stock rises by about 40%.

In fact, Oracle is one of the fastest-growing stocks and one of the best-performing stocks of 2025.

Adverbs of degree

I was expecting Oracle to grow, but to be honest, even I am surprised that it has grown this fast.

A 40% increase in less than two weeks, that's amazing.

In fact, since April of this year, Oracle has grown by about 150%, which makes it one of the best-performing stocks in recent years.

Even if you missed your opportunity and you did not invest, for example, in the S&P 500 in 2020, 2021, 2022 and just invested in Oracle in April of this year, imagine how much money you could have made.

I will explain why Oracle stock has grown this much and whether it's worth buying it and when exactly you should buy it.

In fact, this is the biggest increase in Oracle stock since 1990s because last time it has grown this much was during the dot com revolution.

The stock has grown from less than 4 dollars to as much as 46 dollars.

That's a 1200% increase, which made it one of the best investment opportunities of the dot com era.

And that's the problem with this kind of hype.

If you are investing and there is a lot of hype in the market and you cannot possibly time the market, you are going to lose everything.

And that's why it's extremely important to invest in stocks that are going to grow in the long run.

For example, if you just take Oracle, yes, it has crushed after that.

However, if you look at the big picture, since then, Oracle stock has been one of the best performing stocks of all time.

Even if you purchased Oracle at the peak of the internet revolution, you would still have made a lot of money because since then, it has grown to over 300 dollars.

And there is a probability that Oracle is going to become a 2 trillion, 3 trillion or maybe even a 4 trillion dollar company over the next couple of decades.

What's happening now is very similar to what has been happening back in 1990s.

In fact, if you literally pull out the older rich people today, you'll find out that almost all of them made their money during the dot com era and because they have invested in the right companies back in 1990s and early 2000s, that's why they are the richest people today.

I mean, this is Forbes billionaires list.

Of course, Elon Musk became the richest person first by creating PayPal and then took that money and invested it in Tesla and SpaceX and so on and so forth.

But everyone else on the list also made their money because of the dot com revolution.

Larry Ellison, Jeff Bezos, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, you name it.

The only two people on this list are Warren Buffett and Bernard Arnold.

Even Warren Buffett made his money out of technology.

The best investment in the history of Warren Buffett was an investment into Apple.

And if he did not invest in Apple back in 2015 or 2016 or something like that, he wouldn't be on the Forbes billionaires list as one of the richest people in the world.

Even if the people that missed the dot com revolution and still invested in technology companies after that, still ended up becoming some of the richest people in the world.

So what we are seeing right now is literally once in a lifetime opportunity.

Because something like that is not going to happen.

If you actually make the right investments today, you will find yourself making so much money that you cannot possibly imagine.

From 1995 to early 2000s, 500 internet companies went public.

Just imagine the number of companies that were internet companies that did not go public, but only a few of them actually survived, such as Google, Nvidia, eBay, PayPal, Amazon.

And the founders of these companies became, of course, the richest people in the world.

Everyone else who has also invested in these companies also became some of the richest people in the world.

They not necessarily made like billions of dollars like the founders, but they made hundreds of millions of dollars.

At the same time, it was very difficult to actually find out which of these companies are going to be the survival ones, which of these companies are going to make it beyond the dot com bubble.

Jay Walker founded the company and at its peak, it made the founder of this company one of the richest people in the world and put him at the Forbes billionaires list.

Even though that the company still exists today, it's nowhere close to as big as it was back in the days.

So what we are seeing right now is very similar to the dot com revolution.

So internet connected people all across the globe.

It simply made it much faster and much more efficient to connect with one another.

If in 1990s, you would want to communicate with somebody, it was very difficult.

Today, you can pull out your phone, video call somebody on the other side of the planet and voila, you have effective communication.

Even if you go to early 2000s, when everybody was having those little blackberries with an entire keyboard on the screen, I mean, it's very difficult to imagine how far we have come.

Every business person back in the days had a blackberry because it was very efficient to type an email.

But why type an email when you can pull out your phone and video call somebody on the other side of the world.

It actually made it much easier to access information globally.

If you want to find out something, just pull out your phone or pull out your computer and google something.

You have an entire Wikipedia where you can find any information that you want.

So it made the cost of information and the cost of communication so cheap that it made us all much more productive.

And that's why it allowed companies to become trillion dollar companies.

Like the largest company back in 1990s was probably Exxon Mobil.

And Exxon Mobil used to worth 300 or 400 billion dollars.

It was one of the largest companies back in the days.

And if you are an investor, you cannot possibly imagine Exxon Mobil to become a trillion dollar company or 5 trillion dollar companies.

Because it simply wouldn't make that much money.

But because internet has increased our productivity so much, it allowed for companies to make that much money.

Now take this and compare it to what AI is doing to the world today.

It's doing pretty much the exact same thing in a very different way.

So if you want to solve an equation, you can do that.

You can pull out the calculator and you can do the math and it will take you some time.

Or you can ask AI and it will do the exact same for you in a fraction of a second.

See, back in college when I was studying accounting and finance, we used to create financial statements, we used to analyze them and it would take a lot of time.

And when I thought that when I graduate, I will go and work for some kind of Deloitte or KPMG or one of those auditing companies.

But now you can do all of that in a fraction of a second.

I mean, of course, you need a human auditor at the end of the day to check everything.

But imagine how much it speeds up the task of thinking.

So it's basically increasing your productivity as much as internet increased the productivity of businesses by connecting people, by making communication much easier, much more efficient and much cheaper.

If internet created $2 trillion companies, $3 trillion companies, AI is going to create $20 trillion companies, $30 trillion companies, $40 trillion companies just now.

Because even Elon Musk is trying to reshape the image of Tesla and is trying to present Tesla as a robotics and AI company.

And they just came out with a plan, with a compensation package that Elon will take Tesla to become a $10 trillion company with that compensation package of $1 trillion.

And the only way that is possible is for them to sell AI services.

And that's why both of them are actually massively increasing the productivity.

So here's why Oracle stock actually grew by 40%.

They signed a deal with OpenAI, a $300 billion deal with Oracle.

The only way to power AI, you need computer chips.

And you need a lot of these computer chips.

And that's why they are building those huge data centers that are going to power the entire AI.

If you go to chatGPT today and you type something, a request, there is a lot of computer power that is needed for that request to be completed.

Back in 1990s and early 2000s, when we came out with the internet, you also needed those data centers in order to host websites, to host the entire internet.

So if you pull out Netflix and you watch a show, where do you think that show is being hosted?

On Amazon Web Services, which was the key reason that made Amazon such a successful company.

If it wasn't for Amazon Web Services, you would not have Amazon today.

Because that sector of Amazon was so profitable that it allowed or funded the entire Amazon and made it one of the most successful companies today.

So I could easily imagine that Oracle is going to build those data centers.

And Oracle is going to spend 40 billion dollars buying NVIDIA's computer chips and will build the data centers in order to power OpenAI.

But here is the second most interesting thing.
