best shares to invest in


If there was any doubt that Namaste Technologies (OTCMKTS:NXTTF, CNSX:N) is on the right track and can do what it set out to do, it was just wiped away today. Per this morning’s press release, the company proved it’s going to be able to reach its near-term revenue target by tweaking its recently-acquired properties. Investors who’ve been kicking the tires with NXTTF — or with N, for Canadian investors — the time to act is arguably sooner than later.

Namaste Technologies sells electronic vaporizers, which are more commonly categorized as electronic cigarettes (or e-cigs). Though initially intended as a means of avoiding tobacco smoke without giving up nicotine, it was only a matter of time before the idea was adapted and new technologies were developed to vaporize whatever it is people choose to smoke. Marijuana was an obvious good-fit candidate for the idea, and Namaste Technologies is simply capitalizing on that growing opportunity. The end result: Namaste now operates more than 30 e-commerce retail stores with monthly traffic of over 550,000 visitors…


… or did anyway. As of this morning, In terms of total traffic, Namaste has increased its total pre-acquisition monthly traffic from 42,353 in July to 596,453 in November, an overall increase of 1,308.3% in monthly traffic. That’s a pretty big leap forward in not a lot of time, which is part of what makes the Namaste Technologies opportunity so compelling.

It takes a closer look at the numbers and a clear understanding of what Namaste bought and when it bought it to fully appreciate how big of a deal the news is.
