The Robotics Revolution has arrived … and one $7 stock could take off as a result. (Ad)

It could very well mark the beginning of a new multitrillion-dollar industrial revolution. Up until now, we've imagined robots doing things like cleaning our homes, serving drinks at restaurants, greeting guests in hotel lobbies, stacking shelves in warehouses, and so on. Very soon, there will be a robot that won't do any of that. However, it's impact on the US economy and society will be FAR greater than anything we ever imagined.
