An Agriculture Drone IPO From AgEagle Aerial Systems

Drones are all the rage now, but for retail investors who want in on a piece of that action, there aren’t that many ways to invest in this theme. This is mainly because the biggest drone players like DJI Innovations and 3D Robotics are privately held companies. There are some publicly traded drone stocks like Delta Drone (EPA:ALDR), AeroVironment (NASDAQ:AVAV), and Parrot SA (EPA:PARRO). The problem is that 2 trade on foreign exchanges and 1 is more of a play on military drones which have been around for a while. With retail investors lacking for options in pure-play drone stocks, the recent announced IPO of AgEagle should be of interest to drone investors.
