While you can't<\/em> invest directly in Waymo, you can<\/em> buy shares in Alphabet (Google), its parent company (and it's a similar story for Zoox<\/a>, Amazon's equivalent autonomous driving lift service).<\/p>

Alphabet is listed on the Nasdaq with the ticker \"GOOGL\", where it's traded in US dollars and is a constituent of the S&P 500<\/a> index. Don't forget that Alphabet has other brands under its umbrella. So by investing in Alphabet, you're effectively also buying into Google and YouTube, for example. The movement of Alphabet's share price will be affected by more than just the fortunes of Waymo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
