Second Investment Group
The imaginary abc Corporation is also a very good illustration of a company that could be considered in the 2nd investment group. The corporate title of abc Corporation implies to a younger company that makes people that are not fully informed to think that this kind of stock has much more of a risk implied in it than it might actually indeed have. This company is a low cost producer and is the only integrated company that is producing alloys and is also operating a fabricating plant that converts the master alloy into bar, strip, extrusions etc. and also has finished products of tools. The sales in this company have gone up around six times within the last ten year stage. An increasing percentage of these sales are due to electronics as well as additional industries that have promised fast growth for the years ahead. This would usually justify the price earnings ratio of close to twenty that this stock has in many occasions sold in the previous five year stage.
Due to the fact that there is an indication that this company is going to be increasing, the XYZ Corporation, which is a spectacular research division of the Armed Forces that is government owned and that has quoted in the press as foreseeing a very good future in the next few years for the currently nearly non existent field of beryllium metal.
Sooner than any other market that might come up for the beryllium, the following two year will be able to see this company bring about production of another brand new product. This is a metal that is to be used for atomic functions. This product will be produced in another plant from the older alloy metals and already has a contract with another bigger company. It would seem as if this has a very good future in the nuclear industry where demand will most likely happen from the government as well as from private industries. The management in this company is on the look out.
There are also other cases of companies that are smaller and that have stumbling possibilities of being able to gain for the successful, but has total or almost total loss of investment for the unsuccessful. We have already mentioned why it is believed that the amount, if there is any, of those securities in an investment list should change depending on the circumstances and what the particular investor has in mind for doing. Nonetheless there are two worthwhile goals to keep in mind when it comes to these types of investments. We have already pointed one out before, and this has to do with not placing any funds into them that you are not able to afford losing. The other point is that bigger investors should never during the time of the first investment place more than five percent of funds that are available into any of these types of companies. As we have also mentioned before, one risk that the small investor has is that it is possible that the investment is too small to be able to gain something from the fabulous prospects of this kind of investment and still obtain the benefits of adequate diversification.
The percentages that are suggested usually only represent a minimum or a logical standard of diversification. Nonetheless, an investor should always keep in mind that by doing so he will need to keep a close eye on it. Not remembering this might cause the investor not only to not arrive to his goal as quickly as he had in mind, but it might make him lose all together.
