My latest candidates for a 100% return on investment. Which one will get the gold medal I wonder? BTI leading the race at 90%, Metair is at 81%. Go boytjies!

100% is quite a meaningless milestone actually.. Think about it: this is what behavioral finance is all about.

All these figures are meaning less if you don't say over what time span and besides,was it a geared instrument or not.I bought a share in two parcels at 85 and 90 cents collected R4.63 in dividends and sold out at R16.50. sounds great which it was, but still meaningless without me saying over what period of time.It was RBW and I held it for 11 years,now a person can do comparisons.

Bought BTI at the same time,some of the stocks that have gone over 100% in a shade over 3 years since I bought, FSR(120),OML(147),ARB(112)& MPC(373), however on the otherside of the equation are BWI(-49),AMS(-36)and IMP(-26)
