It's about returns

AIM is just a smarter version of Buy and Hold. But you have to be very very patient to get improved returns over B/H plus you need to go with "good" companies to not lose your investment. But, interestingly, these "good" companies are poor AIM candidates many times (little action) plus, as we have seen, they too can tank and even go bankrupt. One less discussed aspect of risk is holding large positions built up over many years of AIMing, only to see it's price sag, depleting your cash, then dive to near zero (VTSS and ADCT come to mind). It seems to me to be much smarter to be able to get strongly in and strongly out of the same stock over a long period, rather than rely on the "long cycle" to yield the same returns that one can have in a far shorter time period (and thus at less risk!)

With X_DEV, you can pick the strongest companies and grow wealth much quicker and much safer.

Anyone else get 59% out of DELL in the last 6 months? (as well as all future 6 month periods!)

Currently at ZERO risk on DELL ;-)
