The New Technology Age: Sony And The New Technological Age

Sony and the New Technological Age

A teacher I once had told me “Invest in what you know.” I took that to heart and during a school project involving stock market investing I put what he told me to good use. I sat long and hard thinking about what I did in my everyday life that would help me in this project. I thought about what I ate for breakfast, what I used to do my chores, or even what I used at school but kept coming up empty handed. Then it hit me and I began to scan my resources for topics such as digital technology advances, new technology and devices for 2014, and cutting edge design and animation.

One particular digital electronics company stuck out above the rest, and that was Sony. With Sony’s recent release of the Play Station 4 and its already successful Play Station 3 model, Sony seemed like the ideal company to invest in for the coming years. With Sony’s wide range of electronic products, including stereos, DVD players, and televisions, and with new technology being developed close to every week, all sorts of new jobs are beginning to open up.

This can only lead to good things for Sony and its competitors. When the next great technological breakthrough happens, and it will happen, I would want to have some money invested in Sony.

In conclusion, I believe the best stock to invest in for the coming future would be Sony. With the new advances in technology happening every day, Sony can only increase in value. You may ask why Sony instead of one of its competitors? Put simply, Sony has a much broader range of products to offer. When compared to the rest of the technological world, Sony is the only way to go.
