Re: The Official Stocks and Shares Thread'Libertas Capital, House Broker and Nominated Advisor (‘NOMAD’) to junior gold and copper developer and producer, Frontier Mining (AIM: FML), released an in-depth note on the company today, highlighting the upside valuation potential if the company can deliver on its ambitions.
In the note, titled ‘Undiscovered Junior Copper-Gold Play’, Libertas highlighted the “potentially world class” Benkala Copper Project and near term gold heap leaching Naimanjal operation as the two key assets that have the potential to drive value in the near and medium term.'
Excuse the name but FML could be a good buy lol
Do your own research though. -

Re: The Official Stocks and Shares ThreadWell they could secure funding from the chinese or not, looks like they will from reading but fairly risky.(Original post by TheLouisVuittonDon)
yeah i'm watching them very closely. i got in and am 20% up so may consider selling.
Profits profit if you're not prepared to risk waiting... plus there wasnt actually any news today which spouted the increase.... very strange. -

Re: The Official Stocks and Shares ThreadI research mostly via the internet from news sources and also company profiles via their websites. Try to establish the potential of the company based on this information and predict where the share could be in X amount of time.(Original post by rocketscience)
Hi
I'm new to this, just wanted to know how you guys research companies and decide which ones are worth buying?
Normally I buy shares only on the uptake, very rarely will invest in stocks that are extremely volatile and have either bad or no news forthcoming.
Do a lot of reading before investing in any company, evaluate the risk and always consider the worst.
Some people analyse charts which can work if you are shorting a stock but I've found its less reliable.
Hope this helps. -

Re: The Official Stocks and Shares ThreadJust for those who are new to buying shares, you might notice me and others on here using abbreviations. Below I've listed what a few mean....
SP - Share Price
MM - Market Maker
Investing Short Term - Buying a share short term and holding it for a short period of time.
Investing Long Term - Buying a share and holding it for a long period of time.
RNS - Regulatory News Service (the exchanges service of releasing news about companies)
LSE - London Stock Exchange
This is just a few but it might help people understand some of my posts

Re: The Official Stocks and Shares ThreadAgreed, it has huge potential. Especially if the major consumer brands get on board.(Original post by PrincePauper)
well its 10p now, with the RNS through I would be looking at 12-15p and then the following deals could even push it up to 30p. The sky is the limit with this share
What else are you currently in? -
