In this video from Monday's edition of Investor Beat, host Chris Hill and Motley Fool analysts Taylor Muckerman and Jason Moser dissect the hardest-hitting investing stories from the market today.

The Consumer Electronics Show, or CES, begins tomorrow in Las Vegas, and is the largest consumer tech trade show in the world. In the lead story on today's Investor Beat, Taylor and Jason discuss the idea of a smart home and the "Internet of things," and how the increasing interconnectedness of the appliances and devices in our lives could be a multitrillion-dollar industry over the course of the next decade. They also note that while there can be a lot of buzz and excitement generated by new products each year at CES, the timeline for when these stories may play out for investors can be very difficult to gauge.
