RE: How Successful Are AIM Companies?28 Apr 2021 22:07
About investing in AIM stocks, first rule for me is fundamentals (the basics: capital, close or zero debt, a product or project that is bankable, assets in a political stable country, popular with investors, fluidity reg the stock, professional and experienced BoD, a field I understand, the product and project must have demand, hopefully having some institutional backing and a few other things).
Then, I try to buy it early if I am lucky. I have had more successes with aim stocks once I started to follow fundamentals (charts are good, don't get me wrong, but they will always come after fundamentals). I have a house in France because of an aim stock called Imperial Energy (oiler) I had over 12 years ago, which the Russians gobbled up in the end.
AVACTA, Oxford Biomedica, FAR, Empyreal Energy, Dragon Oil to name a few have all made me a lot of money. I lost some with BPC, but that was my own blindness. The important thing is to always invest what you feel you would be comfortable to risk, when it comes down to aim stocks. The more your fundamentals are good the less risky your investment is in my opinion.
The last great example of an aim investment with good fundamentals is Pensana. They certainly didn't have rare earths sipping out of the ground like we do with Helium, but I bet you their investors would love that.
