Dear opportunistic investor,
By now, I'm sure you've heard of some of the incredible gains being made in Australia's tech sector.
The smart investors who saw all the early signs have made a fortune in a matter of months, and are hopeful of making even more in the months and even years to come.
Plenty of others have recognised the gains but are choosing to remain on the sidelines, fearing that all the profits have already been made.
Imagine having made such a call on a company like Amazon.com or Apple early in their growth days.
Deciding against an investment in Amazon.com after it had climbed from US$1.50 a share in June 1997 to US$7.37 in June 1998. Or deciding against Apple when it hit US$11 in February 2005, up from US$3.40 in February 2004.
The pair are now trading at US$532 and US$116, up 7,159% and 955% since those so called "missed opportunities", respectively.
Technology stocks are widely misunderstood by Australian investors – an opinion recently shared by Rod Drury, CEO of accounting software provider XERO FPO NZ (ASX: XRO).
And that's exactly why the smart investors are making their moves, right now, loading up on the technology stocks that could become Australia's next big thing.
Just look at Prophecy International Holdings Limited (ASX: PRO), its share price has soared 388% since the beginning of the year. Or Senetas Corporation Limited (ASX: SEN) and Catapult Group International Ltd (ASX: CAT) – up 280% and 161% in the same time, respectively.
To highlight the significance of those gains, imagine that you had a $10,000 investment in each of the companies mentioned above as at 1 January 2015. Those investments would now be worth a combined $112,807 – a gain of $82,807.
Although I think there could still be gains to be made from those stocks, I believe there are even better opportunities that the smart investing crowd has not clued onto, yet…
Luckily, there are other promising tech stocks that have received far less attention recently which could be great for investors who take action today.
Of course, there are no guarantees in investing – especially when it comes to small-cap investing – but get it right, and the gains can be tremendous.
Think about that 388% gain you could have made on Prophecy International. Or that 280% gain from Senetas and the more 'modest' 161% return from Catapult.
These are companies that we could look back on a decade from now and think 'I knew those tech companies were bound for success, yet I didn't invest'.
Don't let that happen again.
This time, I hope you'll take just a few minutes to discover more about the two technology stocks The Motley Fool's top investment advisors believe could be poised for success.
