Stock Market Investors
A topic of many of the Lunch Bunch
discussion are about nanotechnology. A discussion today
is not when it going to arrive but what are the key
stocks to profit from the nanotechnology. The
information below comes from the Forbes/Wolfe Nanotech
Report.
There are many real products being
produced with this new science of the small. With the
help of Lux Research, these are the top 10 nanotech
products of 2005.
- Apple Computer; Inside iPod
are memory chips using NAND and DRAM flash memory.
- Shemen Industries; A brand of
cooking oil that inhibit that absorption of
cholesterol.
- O’Lalas Foods; Chocolate
flavored chewing gum.
- Zelens Fullerene; Face cream
that is 100 more times antioxidant than Vitamin E.
- Easton Sports; A baseball bat
that optimizes flex in the hitting zone.
- Nano-Tex; Clothing material
that repels liquids, reduce static, and rest stain.
- ARC Outdoors; Silver embedded
material that reduce orders and fungus in socks.
- Behr Process; Creates a
harder, more durable paint film.
- Pilkington; A glass that
cleans itself in a 2 stage process.
- Nano-Twin; Filter that destroy
airborne germs.
Government funding in
nanotechnology reached $4.5 billion this year.
Corporate finding is right on it’s heels at $4.3
billion. This is an important threshold because
business will become much more of a driver and should
begin to see some IPO’s in the sector.
