RE: first 10-bagger

Nothing like remembering your first time.

Bought Plexus Resources in October 1992
Sold it in January 1996 at 13X

My first "almost" was a little earlier
A tiny company with just the Mercur Mine in Utah.

Both are pretty large well known companies now.

LC:

Congrats on the 10-bagger!!! They're very rare. I've only had 2 or 3 out of 200 to 300 stocks over the last 20 years... i.e., 1-in-100 <g>. But I like the idea of "trying to pick the next 10-bagger from here". So here are my candidates... lots of them (to deal with the 1:100 odds)... and with a 2-year time frame, to mid-2009 say... :^)

- Amarillo (AGC)
- Commander (CMD)
- Cadre (CSL.h) -- *if* they start trading again!
- Copper Fox (CUU)
- Condor (CN)
- European Minerals -- Warrants (EPM.WT.A)
- Goldbrook (GBK)
- GLR Resources (GRS)
- International Commercial Television (ICTL)
- Mundoro (MUN) -- *if* they get their business license in China
- Pacifica (PAX)
- Powertech (PWE)
- Roxmark (RMKL) -- *if* they get their TSX-V listing
- Shear (SRM)
- Stroud (SDR) -- *if* they hit on the silver property in Mexico
- True North Gems (TGX) -- my "no brainer", but of course I could be wrong! <vbg>
- Tinka (TK)

Of course I own positions in ALL of them! And everyone should do their own DD, so I'm not recommending buying <g>. But if everyone on this board decides they are good 10-bagger prospects, it could become a self-fulfilling prophesy! Dream on Howy... <g>

And there is of course one I haven't mentioned that isn't listed yet. But hopefully Shield Gold will be trading within the next couple of months. :^)

Incidentally, I only have small positions in most of these, whereas some of my "favourites" -- which are less risky IMHO -- I *don't* consider to be potential 10-baggers (e.g., ANO, AVM, BCM, CKG, CLL, MMG, MVG, POM, SVM, etc.)

Well this was fun. On reflection, I quite like my PF.

Best regards, and congratulations once again,
Howy

congratualations, cyber beers all around....ECU is within spitting distance of a 10 bagger for me. Bot 1000 @ .38 back in Dec '05. Sold half somewhere along the ride.

What has worked well for me with some of these juniors is...
when I catch a good price, at a good time, just put it on ignore. Got a few other positions like that and find it alot easier to ride the bull if I ignore them.

Cheers, and wishing you many more!
