The time has come. On Tuesday, November 12, 2013, the first non-human will ring the closing bell on the NASDAQ stock market to mark the launch of a new robotics stock index, ROBO-STOX™. ROBO-STOX is the first index to benchmark the value of robotics, automation and related technologies. Universal Robots‘ UR5 robot arm will reach up and ring the closing bell.
