Investing in AIM seems quite tricky. I think I'll stay clear of oil & gas, that's for sure!!!

Has anyone invested in AIM stocks in recent years and very proud/sad of their gains/lack of?

Asos is due to take 128 years to pay back its investors capital and its still cheap for its growth rate :huh:

stay clear of oil & gas

UK imports both, we dont have them available but use plenty. If Im certain of anything it would be energy in demand not retail


I'll put my 2014 guess as Amara, until I see better or a more unpopular profitable operation.
Its chart looks strong but I dont expect it to do well because its mining gold and gold I dont think will rise. However it should survive ok (they can tic over) and if we do get a rise its going to be over 100% which is good for any share.

Why I would choose such a 'hopeless' case as best, I will point to the last words of our BOE's Carney

ASOS - Great company, bad share. With so much future growth already priced in with the stock up so much in 2013, it's hard to see the value. Although I'm a big believer in the company, I would not be buying ASOS now.

That is *exactly* the reason I didn't buy it at 250p and 300p having had it on my watch list from 80p and even suggesting it to others at 100-150p without getting round to buying it myself. I told myself I would definitely get on the next time it went down to 200p or so.

Did you also avoid Google at $150-175 having missed the float at $100ish?
