Technology stocks also made many people very rich. Some of the wealthiest and youngest persons in this world made their wealth on the internet or in related industries. I don’t talk about the Page brothers from Google, Facebook's Zuckerberg or Bill Gates.
This alone is a reason why we should observe the technology sector because there is a huge potential of growth at limited cots. Today, I like to proceed with my January research of the most recommended stocks and I do this at the technology sector.
Below is a small list with some fundamentals about tech stocks with the highest buy rating. I excluded stocks with a market capitalization below USD 2 billion because I think the risk should be much higher as for mid-capitalized stocks.
These are the results: Eleven of the best to buy rated stocks pay dividends; nine have a strong buy rating.
Here are my favorite stocks:
