Re: AIM, time and portfolio growth....................

Yesterday I posted about the FVL holding in my retirement account. I mentioned that in just a month I'd had a nice "round trip" trade that had provided about a 19% LIFO gain. Being a retirement account I didn't think to look at what the FIFO gain might be until this AM when I got my email trade report.

Well, it turned out to be an 84% long term cap gain on a FIFO basis. If it had been a taxable account I probably would have looked right away. The shares are part of the AIM buying I did back in 2008-09 during the panic.
