I agree with many who have stated that your request in asking for a 100-1000% gain will only allow you to play in the very high risk/ very high reward space. That means one more mistake and your a xx creek. The first aim in wealth creating is capital preservation. Te second focus should be potential upside. The third should be lots of research and patience. I have a tendency to invest in a way that firstly protects the downside while providing good upside. I like you invest big in a few stocks, mostly one or two a a time, I know them well, I can value them, a can stress test their earnings, and I am confident they have zero chance of going under. My current large holding is in BPT. Look to te thread for my views but as a summary they have real assets, lots of oil, gas and cash and they are currently producing a shale gas development which will be a few years in the making but could see it Benny a 4-7 bagged IMO. It pays dividends and therefore holding costs are decreased. However. Although I expect it to be rerated soon , I can't see 100-1000% in a shorttime frame . I can see 300-500% over 2-4 years.
As other posters have said making money is not always smart investing. The stock I made most on this year. 179k in a few days is proabably the most speculate and highest risk stock I held all year. Was I smart - no, was I lucky yes, did I sleep comfortably well I held - no. There are good companies and always good themes. Ie gold in the last 12 months. If you can find a good company within a good theme, you stand the better chance . Goodluck
