I checked Fido, too and couldn't find a way to invest in Investor AB. But at Wells Fargo, it's investable as a pink sheet offering under IVSBF.
Foreign stocks on Fido also often come with a $50 foreign asset fee, so beware of that, too. I can't remember now what ticker I was looking into, but sometimes I buy 1 share of a stock so I keep my eye on it and then sink real money in when it drops to the level I want. Some would say it's an expensive way to monitor a holding but I find watchlists tend to get lost somehow. Even buying one share of a stock helps me focus. Besides, if I was wrong about the valuation, now I'm up on my huge 1 share investment.
To the poster who suggest Kodak and others, don't sleep on Atari! All the kids have the 2600 and will forever!
