Want to invest in this Facebook thing??

Recently, the investment company T. Rowe Price announced it had purchased a stake in Facebook worth $200 million. It has spread the investment across some 19 funds, including Science & Technology, Growth & Income, Global Stock and New America Growth. And T. Rowe’s New Horizons Fund, which doesn’t currently have a stake in Facebook, has invested in Twitter.

Obviously you are also sharing in other investments so the profit potential isn’t as lucrative as owning shares directly . But for many small-time investors this is actually for the best. If you are looking for a diversified portfolio with just a pinch of Initial Public Offering potential for kick, then funds like these may be a decent choice for you.
