Small investment, low risk.

Good morning Tinkerbell,

I have to say that the one investment that I made during that time frame that has at least doubled--actually more than doubled--is CHL. It has given stellar performance. Another is FTO. But the best of all is VWSYF. Have not held it a year yet and it has doubled.

On the flip side of that coin, and there is always a flip side, there are the investments that are still in the red after 1-2 years. I do not hold those generally 2 years. Get rid of the loosers before year end. LOW and GGG are the worst of the bunch. Should have had my head examined. Both down about 5% during a bull market even.

Low risk and double your money in 2 years are an oxymoron. Not usually possible. If you want to double your money in 2 years you have to take risks. In equities low risk is associated more with 20% gain over two years. Even that is only lower risk, not low risk. There are times during the market cycles when it is possible to double your money in 2 years with relatively low risk. Such times are when the bear markets begin to bottom out. This occurs normally after stock prices have been falling non-stop for about 2 years. Last time was 2002. Excellent time to double your money in two years.

Every investment is a risk.

If there was an investment that had small investment, low risk and doubled in 1-2 years everyone would be a billionaire and then you would need to be a trillionarie to be rich.

The higher the return, the higher the risk - there is no way to avoid that. Doubling your money in that period is gambling, not investing.

Investing is a long term strategy. You should expect to do no better than 8 to 10% a year - in other words, doubling your money every 10 years.

Be selective about the advice given earlier. Look at FEMKX
for example. Actually, if you invested two years ago, you would have made 100% over that period. If you had invested in mid-06 though, you would have lost money by the end of 06. When you take a two year period, you might win or lose, depending when you buy a fund; so although it's true that fund has done well over a SPECIFIC two year period, it has also had signficant down-swings. That's the problem. It's impossible to time the market, which is why you cannot reliably consider a two year timeframe for stock investments. If you take a 10 year view of this fund, you'll see it returned ON AVERAGE 10% - exactly in line with what you should expect in a long-term investment.

My house did that. It went from $143,000 to just under $300,000 in 2 1/2 years.

Three funds that I own have done just about that:
Fidelity's " Emerging Markets" ...FEMKX
Fidelity's " Latin America"....FLATX
U.S. Global's " Eastern Europe"...EUROX
FEMKX has actually made 196% since June '04

In order to double in 1 year your require an investment that returns 100% p.a.

Another investment that will give your a return of 100% is to bet on black or red at a roulette table. Risk high.

In order to double your money in two years, you will need an investment return of 42%. Again you are unlikely to find such an investment that does not involve some risk.

You may also find some mutual funds offering such returns, but it will be very difficult to pick that one that is going to perform that way in advance, for the next two years.

But, all is not lost, there is an investment system that has an avareage annual return of 49% over the past 15 years. The stocksmonthly system certainly appears to have the track record, but as in all things related to the stock market you are paid the big bucks for the risk you are willing to take.

Your safest bet is to find a good forex trader (unless you can trade for yourself) that can consistently generate 5 - 8% monthly. Compounding monthly, you will achieve 100% return every two years or so.

Ask the right questions (leverage, exposure, past history, communication, list of existing clients, etc.) and match it to your risk acceptance level. Forex is extremely volatile, proceed with caution.

Good traders are hard to come by, DO NOT jump in based on promises of riches. You WILL loose your money.

Good luck
