I am no financial advisor.....but much the biggest question to my mind is context: your age, remuneration potential, dreams / plans (e.g. partner , children, houses etc)...if you are sure that you have some fun money that you don't mind losing then welcome to the AIM Casino...like most casinos, the house wins (ie not you)
...if the capital to which you refer is a deposit for a house...go elsewhere imv..
...even with my confidence/excellent multi decade life transforming track record of consistently out performing (perhaps not frisby's 100%pa mind but tidy lol), I accept my pf may not perform well in any single period of say 1-5 years....luck dominates all
...I don't care cos I am largely in cash, am lucky enough to own a few flats/houses and have no debts...
...if I needed reminding, at the level of an individual share anything can happen, this year my hottest tip (DWHA) got hit by a profits warning... so more humble pie munched
