RE: AIM and individual company stocks.................. Please don't think this is a recommendation, it's not. It's just an actual history to show what AIM can do with a company stock holding.
(interspersed with the recent selling spree are 4 "vealies" which helped to control cash at what I deemed an appropriate level for market risk)
Generac Holdings had a cyclical annual pattern that followed the hurricane cycle which is why I chose this stock for a portfolio I was building for someone. It had reasonable earnings and the 1.20 BETA to be enough to generate occasional Trim and Back-Fill trades with AIM.
In recent times GNRC has had quite good price appreciation based upon a surge in business related to high demand for stand-alone electric generation capability in California. Right place, right time. As you can see, GNRC test one's patience for a while at the start of this history. However, it's a well run company and eventually it started to gain attention of investors.
Cash from AIM generated trades now is 80% of what the original total including cash was back in 2014. I've been maintaining tight control on cash build-up keeping it at or near what seems to be appropriate for market risk along the way. Cash has more than doubled since the start.
I hope this helps to demonstrate what AIM can do over time with a company that seems to be well run.
