You've managed 60% in 1 year. Lets put in £1000 and assume 60% for 5 years in a row, adding the dividends average 4 times a year. Compounded you would end up with over £16,000. Now just how likely do you think that is and why isn't everybody doing it?
You know statistically, if you flip a coin long enough, you WILL get 10 heads in a row. Maybe he is that 10 heads in the row.

Are these people who are proving the tips doing some research or are they just pulling things out of the air for that people like me fall for them?
Read the research and make you own judgement call. Stick to small sums. Learn from your personal experience. Using this to refine the areas you invest in. Polly Peck was a stock market darling in it's day. Yet folded overnight. Remember people may not be what they purport to be. With investing comes risk.0 -

HSBC has today signalled a higher chance of a correction in the markets at the end of the year
Corrections (falls of 10% or more) happen pretty frequently so that's not the boldest of predictions. Remember the Great Correction of 2015? No? Me neither.Could this correction if it happens this year be the start of a recession next year? Who knows
Other way around is far more likely. Speculators lag reality, not vice versa.0 -

So no gains either, and we're all agreed that continuing that performance year after year is highly unlikely.
Yes highly improbable, virtually impossible but not wholely impossible... Hence I am not into it but people who buy the lottery does or people actively picking stocks do so and out of a few millions, one or two might do well.

I have bought shares over the past 20 years, I have never added up the gains and losses, but I believe I am in front
I have bought Morrisons and Car Phone Warehouse numerous times, sold when they rose 30%-40% then bought again when they declined.
I have also bought ones like SkyPharma and RBS ect where I lost over 50%
I find it interesting though, perhaps I should try to work out my gains/losses? But since shares are higher now than 20 years ago0
