Early investors in UBER made a killing.  At UBER’s 2019 IPO launch, $1000 invested in first two funding rounds:

• 2010 seed, $13,700,000
• 2011 Series A, $1,370,000

FULL DISCLOSURE: I did not invest in UBER.  I have never recommended an investment in UBER to anyone.    

My forte’ is to conduct research on extreme events that significantly impact the markets.  My findings are then utilized to predict subsequent extreme events.

My work on UBER enabled me to develop an algorithm that has been utilized to identify four early stage private companies which have similar potential.  One of them, Realty Brix is included in this report.

UBER’s meteoric Rise was an EXTREME EVENT

Enron’s sudden collapse is among the extreme events that I have researched since 1977.  In the summer of 2001, Enron was seventh most valuable US public company.  Months later In December it set the record for the largest ever US corporation to file for bankruptcy.  The cause of Enron’s collapse was discovered from my analyses of its Financial Statements.  This resulted in my developing an algorithm which gave me a track record for predicting similar stunning collapses. 

Six years after Enron collapsed the five largest US brokers including Lehman, Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch were diagnosed with same symptom.  My warning to exit the brokers, which was published by Equities Magazine, was emphatic.  See September 2007, “Have Wall Street’s Brokers been Pigging Out?”      

The table below contains the findings from my research of UBER’s funding rounds. Every round from Seed (2010) to Series D (2014) resulted in a minimum gain of 400% as compared to the valuation of prior round. 

UBER reaching a double digit billion dollar valuation ($14.0B) in 2014, four years after its funding at a $6.0 million valuation, was also an EXTREME.

A four minute video, “Digital Disruptor Companies have the Potential to get to $10 billion Valuations Quickly” that included my research findings covering UBER’s feat was produced.  The video includes the sequence or steps for how and why an early stage digital disruptor can increase to a multi-billion valuation very quickly.

The video below is a clip from my 06/13/2026 weekly ZOOM session.  The video contains:

• Interview of Julio Caceres, founder of digital disruptor Realty Brix, about his digital startup. Its uniquely positioned to significantly disrupt the commercial real estate industry.
• Caceres’ key announcement covering his company, which is the catalyst to power Realty Brix to a $10-Billion valuation quickly.
• Inside Scoop from Caceres about Bezos difficulties to obtain seed round financing for Amazon. The $500,000 invested in seed round was most recently valued at $37 billion.   Note that Bezos and Caceres attended high schools in Miami Florida which were rivals.
• Video mentioned above about how a disruptor can quickly reach a $10 billion valuation.

Realty Brix, Real Estate’s UBER! – MOTM June 13 2026

Should Realty Brix be successful and quickly reach a $10 billion valuation the video has the potential to become a classic.  It could become a required view for the students of the major business schools including Stanford, Wharton and Harvard.  The video would cover three huge winners including Amazon and UBER, which preceded Realty Brix.   

The table below contains the companies I researched to find the common denominators including UBER. The table on the right contains the companies which were identified as having the common denominators including Realty Brix.  The valuations for 2028 and 2033 companies  are projections.
