Sectors for investment #1

With this post, we begin looking for sectors that qualify for good opportunities of investment.

Sectors for Investment #1 - Nanotechnologies

The first that I pinpoint is the nanotechnology sector, which has made a long journey since prof. Norio Taniguchi of the Tokyo Science University coined the term in 1974.

More than genetics that once was viewed as a sure bet for growth investors until the public realized that it would be needed several years (10?...) to supply commercially viable products.

The sector of nanotechs that deals with pharmaceuticals has difficulties of the same kind that genetics: years ahead of research and test to get FDA approval. But nanotechs units researching in fields like energy, materials, information and communication, equipment, robotics, can meet investors' expectations of medium-term products' launch.
