Not all shares have the potential to deliver high growth returns. Hunting for Multibaggers comes with higher risk and failure can result in losing everything. But when a plan comes together the upside potential / growth returns are often astonishing. Here’s the last 3 to 4 years action…
From 2009 – 2012, the following top 20 TheShareHub “heads up’ tips.
1. GKP – E&P. Tipped in ’09 at 10p, reached 450p. Return = 45 bagger!
2. QED – Property. Tipped in ’09 at 8p, reached 240p. Return = 30 bagger!
3. MXP – E&P. Tipped in ’09 at 2p, reached 34p. Return = 17 bagger!
4. MNR – Property. Tipped in ’09 at 9p, reached 130p. Return = 14 bagger!
5. XEL – Oil Explorer. Tipped in ’09 at 40p, reached 425p. Return = 10 bagger!
6. EO.L – Oil Explorer. Tipped in ’10 at 16p, reached 143p. Return = 9 bagger!
7. KAZ – Copper. Tipped in ’09 at 200p, reached 1635p. Return = 8 bagger!
8. CAL – Property. Tipped in ’09 at 16p, reached 109p. Return = 7 bagger!
9. IAE – E&P. Tipped in ’09 at 40p, reached 196p. Return = 5 bagger!
10. MERE – Property. Tipped in ’09 at 30p, reached 145p. Return = 5 bagger!
11. NPE – E&P. Tipped in ’10 at 130p, reached 550p. Return = 4 bagger!
12. PMG – E&P. Tipped in ’10 at 11p, reached 37p. Return = 3 bagger!
13. RRL – E&P. Tipped in ’11 at 8p, reached 24p. Return = 3 bagger!
14. TIG – IT. Tipped in ’10 at 11p, reached 26p. Return = 2 bagger!
15. PCI – E&P. Tipped in ’11 at 4.75p, reached 10p. Return = 2 bagger!
16. OPHR – O&G. Tipped in ’12 at 289p, reached 648p. Return = 2 bagger!
17. BOR – E&P. Tipped in ’12 at 63.5p, reached 139p. Return = 2 bagger!
18. SQZ – E&P. Tipped in ’12 at 18.88p, reached 45p. Return = 2 bagger!
19. AFR – E&P. Tipped in ’12 at 85p, reached 162p. Return = 2 bagger!
20. SPD – Retail. Tipped in ’12 at 213p, reached 452p. Return = 2 bagger!
Many other “heads up” tips have delivered 2 baggers but have not been included in the above. The above list will be updated as/when stocks set new highs.
2009 was clearly a ‘recovery’ year and many oversold stocks were ridiculously valued – most were expected to go under. Uncertain times presented many opportunities for the smart investor but maintaining a 100% record of successes is not easy in a volatile market like 2009.
To balance off the Hall of fame – here’s a few from the Hall of Shame.
1. NEW – tipped in ’09 at 4p, reached 8p. Eventually Filed for Admin.
2. ICX – tipped in ’09 at 8p, reached 20p. Eventually Filed for Admin.
3. AZM – tipped in ’09 at 8p, reached 14p. Eventually Filed for Admin.
Not all investments bear fruits and the above shows that ‘everything’ can be lost. 2009 was a record year for companies filing for administration as lack of funding/credit squeezed many out of business.
Hub,
Excellent website, always good to see sites which help the PI`s…..
Keep up the good work.
All the best to you and the rest on here in 2011.

I remember seeing your hotlist posted on the AST bb a year ago and took to opportunity to add 3 of my own (posted on the AST bb 4/1/2010). I went with CHAR at 23.5p (now 188.0p), BPC at 3.69p (now 15.25p) and KRY at 12.91p (now 16.75p).
Gains of 700.0%, 313.3% and 29.7%. I continue to hold CHAR and BPC as I see significant further upside. I reluctantly sold KRY at 18p to buy more RKH which should start 2011 in fine style though I may well buy back into KRY if the price drops below 16p.
As for 2011 I still see the resource sector as the place to be as the Chinese, Koreans, Indians etc continue to scour the globe to secure supply. My three largest holdings are GKP, CHAR and RKH and wouldn’t be at all surprised if that’s still the case in a years time.
Last year I found it easy to pick 3 to follow. It’s not been so easy this time. I was going for XTR and HER (been in both for a while) but this last week has seen a sharp increase in both. I am a big fan of companies with interests in Africa so I’ll stick with that theme for 2011. So, in no particular order I’ll go with JLP (30.75p), MWA (10.5p) and NRRP (4.125p) though AEX (8.5p) could also have made the list. If I hadn’t restricted myself to Africa I’d have picked EMED (12p).
So, good luck to you all for 2011. Let’s hope it’s a happy, healthy and prosperous one for us all. Oh….and one final word…PATIENCE!!!

My tips:
RRL
SGO

HI Hub – how about ETO, EROS, DQE ? All 3 are in the Indian Film business, & with worldwide deals to varying degrees. Very impressive recent growth records, profitable, & yet they have been largely ignored during 2010.
Is 2011 likely to be their year, or will we still be dominated by Oilers & Miners ?

hi hub
i have 150k to invest.
your help and expertise would be appriecated
and ill pay you a commission for your help
gain or lose its buissness i wont cry on you shoulder.
I’m not regulated by the FSA or Financial services in general so cannot be your fund manager or advisor. I can however point you in the direction of many stocks – some via the Hotlist soon to be published on Jan 2nd or via Heads up updates which I issue from time to time.
What you need to do is decide on your ‘risk’ appetite, your returns/growth targets and most of all – your ability to only invest what you can afford to lose.
For every gain in the stock market – there has to be a loser. The markets have been buoyant over the last couple of years post March 09 due to the recovery and zillions of £’s that have been pumped into the markets from Governments around the world.
2011 could be a very different year and gains/profits harder to achieve. My opinion is that it is easier to start a virtual ‘watch list’ as a novice and trade it like it is real. If you do well with that, then give it a go but start small and never over stretch yourself. There’s no such thing as a dead cert in these markets. Every stock carries risk and you could lose everything you invest.
“For every gain in the stock market – there has to be a loser”
What does this mean? I know you don’t mean it literally, but I can’t get what you’re trying to say.
Same here Hub,
Many thanks for assisting my decisions, and making some spare cash in 2010.
Looking forward to becoming more comfy in 2011!!!
BH
Hub.
fantastic site well done.
I always enjoy reading your posts and have followed some of your leads to great success.
Looking forward to the “Hub list” for 2011.
Thankyou for taking the time to share your knowledge with us.

Many thanks for all the tips over 2009 and 2010. In my worst investment ever I lost most of my pension fund via TRP. Aftyer your tiops for XEL and GKP I have recovered all of the loss and some. Now at 75% GKP 25% RKH.
Thanks again
Jim
Jim,
TRP was always a high risk stock based on the early drill this year. Worth noting that after the initial duster and drop from 4p range to just 1p, TRP actually looked like the bargain of the century based on future drill plans and licence area. Sure enough sanity returned and so did the sp. It’s back to 4.5p range. Good to hear you managed to use your funds to get into GKP and XEL.
One word of warning – all these stocks are very high risk and it might be worth looking at a mix of low, medium and high risk stocks for 2011 to avoid further failures. We all like the hunt for multibaggers, but are also acutely aware that they come at a heavy price of ‘risk’. Many are ‘makers or breakers’.
What a great site Hub your a credit to the movement Pi’s v Institutions. I wish you and all the Pi’s a profitable and healthy 2011. I started with my last £10k after taking my life savings out of the banks in 2008. It currently stands at £103k and thats after losing £26k in two tranches with DES. Not bad for an amature eh! MERRY XMAS TO YOU AL.

Some very intresting stocks named here, great site Hub thanks for putting in the effort. whats your thoughts on any great gold stocks Hub? im holding solo, grl and ggp I think all three are set to deliver great things over the next year, the upside on grl and ggp could be huge and solo seems a safe bet based on previous rns’s, should be at least a £1 by year end.
Thanks again Hub and a great 2011 to you.
there are quite a few gold stocks mentioned in the hotlist 2011 section. See the comments made by other posters. Plenty there to check out.
Broadly speaking I expect Gold to do well next year as I believe the FEDS are keen to keep the dollar low to bolster their economic recovery.
As a teaser – I will be including one or possibly two gold stocks in the hotlist 2011.
BHR – Multibagger
These are my hotlist contendors
12 Oils
Top 4 1. GKP, 2. XEL – Isa, 3. BLVN, 4. IAE – Isa,
These are a lot cheaper and all offer a worthy gamble
CAZA -Isa, RRL -Isa, BPC, DPL, MXP, MTA, AST, VOG
Coal
ANR, GCM, EDL, POL -all exciting long term projects
Minerals
AMC, HER, FDI
Property
QED, CAL, WKP – bad year last year for property – must improve surely! Prices are low to get in at.

Hub
I appreciate your contribition and willingness to help pi’s and there is no doubt you have picked some impressive winners. Without wishing to sound too critical, I do feel that your Top 10 list is very misleading and the way you present it does not do you justice. You are quoting the level you tipped at, but not the level that you sold at or the times in between that you have taken a profit out. I appreciate the later would be difficult to present/ communicate, but it would be fairer and more realistic to state when you have closed out of the investment and the current price. Current price is very valid. MXP for example has struggled to get back above 20p recently CP around 18p but you have it on your list at 34p almost double its current price? Fair enough to say reached but should also state current price for good order and when you recommended derisking or selling. QED for example you sold out of at 40p before going back in so was the gain really 3,000 per cent? This gives a more rounded view and will still show your investments in a positive light. I also believe it will result in a larger user base for your excellent new venture.
I respect your honesty in also listing the duffers which of course comes with the territory of looking for high reward v high risk investments.
I hope my feedback is considered in the positive spirit it is intended in.
All the best for 2011.
Appreciate your feedback and do understand that it’s not always black and white. The hotlist as with the other tips or heads up I issue throughout the year is precisely that – a list and heads ups. It’s not my personal portfolio and many of the stocks fluctuate during the year based on their own operational plans and successes. MXP rose from 2p to test 35p in 2009. It has since traded down to 10p again and up to 32p ranges in 2010. It’s a volatile stock. But that’s still a multibagger based on 2p to 34p regardless of whether I sold personally or whether the stock fell back. I’m not regulated or authorised by the FSA to advise traders or investors to sell or buy stock. I can provide pi’s with the insight and the opportunity – but that’s it – the rest is up to them. I’d love to be a virtual fund manager for pi’s but everyone has differing circumstances and risk appetites etc – hence it’s vital to trade to your own strategy.
The top list of multibaggers is not intended to read as my ‘personal successes’. It’s simply a factual account of the stocks lows to highs performance.
Stocks go up and down and occasionally I will reiterate a ‘head ups’ on a stock that I have already tipped earlier in the year. TRP is a prime example. That was entered into the hotlist in Jan 2010 at 3.87p. It rose to 5p as it neared TD of a vital drill. I was still bullish at 4p range but knew the drill was low CoS and it could fail. The drill was not successful and the stock got punished. It fell from 4.5p ranges all the way down to 1p (yep 1p). At that time, I issued a further ‘heads up’ citing that it was a bargain and it had been overly sold. 6 months on and the stock is testing 4p high ranges again. The 2010 hotlist will only show an increase from 3.87p to circa 4.5p or where ever it closes on 31st Dec. In reality, the stock has actually provided a 4 bagger based on the other ‘heads up’.
I think investors should pay close attention to the 2010 hotlist results and view the years ‘highs’ and ‘lows’ very closely as they can often tell a very different story.
thxs for your post – I hope the above is a fair response.
Hub
Thank you for taking the time to reply. Fair play to you. Wishing you an equally successful 2011.
I’ve got down with flu over the last few days so struggling a little at the moment, but when I get the opportunity I’ll post a little more info on Mariana.

Bought both Xcite 49p and IAE 50p so I have done ok from your tips in the past and look forward to your 2011 hotlist
cheers Hub you are definately one of the good guys, have a great Xmas.
Thanks to Hub. I bought iae at 41p still in , gkp at 60p still in . Been in and out of a few of the others . Got in edl at 0.8p hoping for 8p in a few months. Thanks again Hub for sharing some great tips
Hub – another sincere thanks here. Only started investing in August. Bought XEL @ 64p, GKP @ 105p and IAE @ 102p. Still learning the lesson of letting profits ride (viz. XEL!), but still a very nice 80% up on my investments in less than 4 months. Learning all the time, but terrific start!
