what do you reckon are good high risk investments at the moment, im looking to invest about 2k in a lowly priced company and hope it goes up dramatically.
What r your tips and at what price would you buy,
at the moment im looking at JMS if the stock falls below approx 23c,
and CBH if i can get it for about 54c
 
Go buy 2k worth of lotto tickets...
In all seriousness you shouldn't be looking for the highest risk investment but rather finding an undervalued company.
I fear you will lose your money very quickly looking to become a millionaire overnight.
Do your own research so you make a sound decision instead of fishing for a quick tip.
 
If you really into high-risk with good returns, then i recommend you to research IPO. If you did it right, you will be laughing all the way to the bank.
 
U mean high risk as in ...not going up....or in winding up?
CBH and JMS look fairly normal to me.

A junior miner and a prospector.
 
I am surprised anyone answered this thread - whoops then again, I suppose I did. $2,000 would buy a nice Xmas present for your mother - might be a more sensible idea in my opinion.
 
Love the sensible posts.....in the mining threads of this site...things are anything but sensible with people saying stuff like, "I got a chart for you which proves that BHP will hit $150........seriously, greengoat, anything you don't research properly will be high risk, that's how I define it....an investment is an investment but its you that will make it high/low risk and that pretty much goes for returns as well
 
I think you should just buy a lottery ticket instead because you're basically gambling on a stock that could:

1) Instantly go up, just like a lottery number appearing.
2) Stagnate for 10 years, wasting your time and attention as it does nothing each day except says "well maybe we found something... maybe not!" While frustrating you to oblivion.
3) Goes broke

1 of my "investments" was chosen with a google (aust) search
"gold miners"...and 15 minutes of research.

Total dumb luck and great timing of course.
 
hehe, how did you know when to sell if your buy was straight from a google search........to be honest, I made a bob or two trading gold stocks when I was in my late teens...I didn't care for much research then either......is Aurora mining still around?
 
One suggestion would be not to go around looking for stocks to fall in price so you get a bargain like you describe for JMS and CBH how do you know they won't keep falling? How about investing in yourself and go buy some books with your cash.
 
Put it all on black at the roulette table. Or better still, give it to me!

(joking!!!!!!!!!!!)

When gold goes into its next correction why not just buy one 1oz gold coin from Perth Mint. Then with the change invest in small-cap. I just bought ASX:MTB as a looooong looooong shot GO MTB - GO!

fwiw - the below are 2 of my high risk plays (punts) atm. Both are la very small 3% of my holdings and i would caution you to watch closely for any news.

Just my opinion not advice to participate. if you said where should i park some cash and come back in a year worry free, my answer would be LYC and AGO.

DMN - about to start drilling for Rare Earth in WA

DRX - Zircon play who the chinese are taking a big piece of

Not as dumb as you think.

Id approach it a little differently and have 3.
If one takes off then migrate funds to that.
Picking "THE" one that flies out of 1000 or so is
where the risk is.

Sensible stop placement would be wise.
But hey at $700 a trade what are you risking---peanuts!
 
This thread is 4 yrs old.
Didnt make his fortune obviously!
 
lol, prolly bought CBH which tanked.

I should have paid more attention b4 repsinding to todays post.

Funnily enough GV, I tried the same thing with MTB (albeit on a 'hot tip') about 10 years ago. I was pretty happy to get some of my money back. Best of luck this time around - lots of recent activity.
