If you were to invest in a new company what kind of company would it be?

Question

Would you invest in a proven market? (what do you think is a proven market?) or Would you invest in something brand new? (what kinds of brand new businesses would you like to see?)

Answer 1

I like LMRA. They've just bridged the gap on transmitting massive amounts of data to bring networks to a new level. (Look at their recent news releases)

It's moving now! :-)

I don't do very much speculative stuff like that, but if i did, in essence for new companies, I'd look for companies that have just developed something that gives them a competitive advantage in the market place.

Good luck!

Answer 2

I think wind energy and biofuels are the best place to invest for new companies. I have bought 2 companies: Tower Tech (TWRT.ob), they make wind tower support structures, and Nova Biofuels (NVBF.ob), they are building 4 biodiesel refineries.

Answer 3

I would probably troll the small pharmaceuticals. Granted, 9 out of 10 are going to go no where or go bankrupt...but all you need is 1 to hit the money to make it big. Pfizer was a nothing company (3-4 dollars a share) before Viagra, King was a joke before Lucite. Palatin was a 1 dollar stock and then they came out with nutro-spec and broke 4 dollars...now they are working on something else new (just like Pfizer).

You want somewhere to find a hot growth try the start-up pharma's.

Answer 4

A company that makes time machines so I can go back and invest in big corporations when stock was cheap.
