This month’s issue of Frontier Tech Investor is dedicated almost entirely to one theme: robotics.
We’ve been hard at work researching the whole industry. Eoin has a fantastic tip to share with you. On top of that, we’ve prepared several exclusive interviews with industry experts…
Before we get to the issue itself, I wanted to briefly mention a query a few readers have emailed me about regarding how and where to buy some of the shares in the Frontier Tech Investor portfolio.
I know that some of the shares Eoin recommends are a little trickier to buy than “regular” large cap shares. That comes hand in hand with investing in breakthrough technology – we’re looking at shares that aren’t well known and aren’t always easy to buy.
If you’re having difficulty, try calling your broker directly. Often a smaller share listed in America or Japan (for instance) isn’t available to buy online, but your broker will be able to buy for you over the phone.
It’s also worth noting that often as the number of people trying to buy a share increases, a broker will make that share easier to buy. So it’s always worth calling in.
For what it’s worth, I know several readers have had success buying the trickier shares through TD Waterhouse and Hargreaves Lansdown.
Failing that, I spoke to MoneyWeek magazine’s Cris Heaton – who is something of an expert when it comes to this kind of thing. He mentioned two other brokers to try. One is Interactive Brokers – which has an excellent range of shares but perhaps isn’t the easiest platform for beginners to use. The other broker to try is AJ Bell Youinvest. It’ll trade Japan over the phone, for instance.
I hope that helps.
