Re: 950 Talked to a fund manager on Thursday. ABC is one one of the companies in the fund he manages. The fund managers have meetings with management of companies they invest in. The fund he helps to manage invests in FTSE 250 sized AIM companies that are making good profits with a predictable income stream. He was very bullish about ABC.One thing to watch out for is institutional investors that hold over 3% of a company shares selling their holding.

Director buying Bought 1000 @ 500p purely on buying by directors base my dealing a lot on watching what they do best website digitallook. But not so much on the blue chips. Dealer on S.E. for 40+ years get more right than wrong but no guarantee just need plenty of money! to do lots of deals!

Re: 950 kilindidni, "If it reaches 1000 by my 79 th birthday I will be well pleased!".If your birthday is after a week or two reckon you may be well pleased. Up 2.3% this morning at 9:34. Another 2.9% and will have got to £10 a share.Out 43 companies I have shares in ABC currently by far the best performer. Bought 21 April 2017 (19 days ago) and already up 17.0% equivalent to AER of 1,939% (I actually do not normally display AER for a share on spread sheet until more than 30 days passed, as unrealistically high or low figures can result from recent sharp SP moves). I can confidentially state SP will not continue to rise at current rate for 12 months! Even if rate slows to a twentieth of current rate it would still be a strong buy as SP would double in 12 months.

Relative performance of FTSE AIM 100 I have just added the FTSE AIM 100 index to a 6 month chart of ABC. It also has FTSE 100 on it. This may come as a surprise, but the FTSE 100 index in the last 6 months up only 4% but the FTSE AIM 100 up just over 20%. ABC down 2% in last 6 months, in line with FTSE 350 Pharmaceutical & Bio technologies sector (not good for me as haves GSK, AZN and recently added SHP). I have always thought that there were loads of bad AIM shares. I conclude bad ones are mostly the smaller cap ones so not in AIM 100. While I was at it added FTSE AIM 100 total return but that was only about 0.9% more indicating an average yield of around 1.8%.It is a well known fact that when there is a bull market growth shares are much better to have than income stock, because profitable companies, that are able to effectively reinvest profits, grow faster than can be achieved by an investor reinvesting dividends from high yielding companies. There was a good article in last weekends FT money supplement on advantages of equity investment.

Re: My 1st buy today of Abcam killindidni,My knowledge of antibodies etc is limited to my weekly reading of New Scientist. There are some investors who say it is a mistake to learn too much about details of what a company does, instead concentrate on their financial figures.

Re: My 1st buy today of Abcam When you feel you have mastered the Abcam business please let us all know. None of my mates on this board have a clue, including me. We need a bio chemistry interpreter for a start. Nevertheless we are fans of the company and have faith in their goals ahead.

Re: My 1st buy today of Abcam Thanks for ideas on AIM stocks gamesinvestor, paul1945 and MrMeerkat. Plenty to keep me busy for a while doing research and following leads from Richard Beddard and Paul Scott. I have had some success with AIM companies and walked away with impressive gains in short spaces of time but mostly end up holding almost worthless shares that have tanked. Determined to to do more research and be more selective. I agree most AIM companies are rubbish but some gems.

Re: My 1st buy today of Abcam Regular reading of Paul Scott's daily Small Cap Value Report on Stockopedia is highly recommended. He does NOT give tips but casts a critical eye over results and other RNS. It certainly helps to avoid the cacka, and several of my holdings inspired by his coverage have done wellMM - hoping that it doesn't all suddenly go to cacka.

Re: My 1st buy today of Abcam " I need to find one or two more AIM shares that are profitable growth companies"R - Advanced Medical Solutions (AMS) is a good one, but like everything else it's no longer considered cheap. But it could be a 10 bagger even from here if all turns out well over time and they don't get bought out of course.Fever Tree would have been the one to buy a couple of years back - massive return - I completely missed that one of course - and on a P/E of 60 right now it would be a nervous buy.Anpario has real potential - has no debt to speak of and is smack in an area that is supported by legislation (against the use of antibiotics in animals/livestock).Manx Telecom - debt is one to watch but they have a virtual captive audience and a 5+% yield that chunters along nicely - stock looks on the low side at the mo.There are so many companies on AIM but most are a pile of steaming cacka as someone once referred to them, so tread very carefully.For a list of some of the more financially sound and more unique AIM shares, try Richard Beddard - he writes regularly about a relatively small (15-20) shares, many that are AIM listed.Games - Take AIM Sir, one day you will be in the money!
