Future Leaders In New Technologies (FLINT) Stocks

 

Flint stocks are "start-up" companies with the potential to be leaders in their fields by virtue of their ownership of a technique, knowledge, method etc that distinguishes them from the pack. Capital gains potential is as immense as the associated risks, but so far the rewards have outweighed the risks. Because of their inherent risks they are normally not selected for the annual portfolios, with the exception of SAMSys (SMY/TSE) which has not been included below.
