Athol Gold at Master Investor.
Were they not the stand with a name and a bare white cloth on a table.
Not over informative!
Tom Winnfrith was the bloke in worn down shoes, crumpled jacket, and dandruff.
He runs a Gold Fund which has lost money and put up management fees.

SS, a great move by athol to put tom back in the driving seat and this

investor conference in london today where tom is speaking so will feed

The Company's Investing Policy is to acquire shares traded in London on the LSE, AIM or PLUS and on the TSX and ASX by participation in public offerings or via secondary markets. The aim of Athol is to be a passive investor and it will not be seeking to gain control of any company merely to buy shares which it considers to be fundamentally undervalued and offer scope for material returns within 5 years. There will be no geographic, sectoral or company specific concentration restrictions or limit on the number of investments made. The key strategy is medium/long term only ungeared, value investing with an objective of continuing to deliver market beating growth in its Net Asset Value per share.

The Company's prime focus for cash investments will be to continue to acquire holdings in natural resources, with a particular focus on precious metals such as gold and silver while the value inherent in precious metals is as clear cut as it is at present, which the Directors believe are undervalued and where one or more such transactions have the potential to create value for Shareholders.

The Company will also seek to acquire investments or investment portfolios from investing companies or other sources or in the secondary market which the Directors believe are undervalued and where one or more such transactions have the potential to create value for Shareholders. Such acquisitions will be purchased primarily through the issue of new Ordinary Shares to the vend ors of such investments or investment portfolios.

Returns to shareholders are expected to be by way of growth in the value of the Company's shares. It is the Board's current intention to hold investments for the long term.

The Company publishes a quarterly update on its Net Asset Value.

The value in deed will end with TW.

They have a habit of selling you shares at a higher price. share price falls to lower price when TW buys them back.

As they are long term investors they benifit from small investors short term frustrations.

If your happy to hold 10+ years & keep adding as the price goes lower you might be lucky to keep up with inflation.

I sold all & moved on.

A portfolio of mainly Plus shares at mid prices? You couldn't make it up. Must be one of the most dubious deals done for a long long time.All of which suggests TW put it together. Would be interesting to know their realisable value, a fraction of what AHG paid I'm sure. No doubt WSI investors will now dump their AHG shares and be very grateful.

I wonder when the news of the 2 investments that will transform the company will be advised to the investors I hope it will before the end of the month.

3ntrepreneur, other than the Ascot holding there are no figures as to how much of what, AHG is invested in. In addition to that there is no guarantee that the Ascot holding is the same either. The old expression buying a pig in a poke springs to mind. I think you can safely ignore the disclaimer (in my opinion) because no AIM quoted company should give out price sensitive information to selected investors, and all knowledge of that type is to be shared with the market through an RNS, so they would in fact be in breach of the regs by doing so. Just to make sure, you can type in something to the effect that you are emailing on behalf of yourself and other investors an will be sharing your reply with them on the BB.

To summarise, buying into AHG is buying into a company with unknown investments and paying a large premium for the pleasure, with fundings being carried out at levels far below the current share price. The only unknown is whether the company will be sold off to someone else when the share price falls to nearer NAV, which could put the price back up again.

A lot of people have been quite complimentary about this thread, which is kind of them, and I have already mentioned that most of the work was done by Kennyruss and I borrowed stuff from other threads. I do think it gives the wrong impression of my investing abilities though. I started 2010 in investing a chunk of cash in January, normally the time when prices peak. Mistake number one, buy when shares are cheap not when they are at their most expensive, although 2011 might be different. I went for shares that I thought would give me a good 10 - 20% return over the year and kept them when they went down. Mistake number two, don't get attached to your shares. At the beginning of August I was down about 25%. I was not happy about this and sold the lot and started again because I had made mistake number three, I had ignored the trends. Most important trend in 2010 was in metals, so that's where I stuck what was left of my cash. Four months later and I have got back my original stake and am currently up about 140%. There are investors out there who would laugh at such a small return, probably some of you that visit this thread. Looking over some of the trades I have made, I noticed that some of those I sold early, sometimes at a loss, went on to be 5 or 6 baggers. I haven't been skilful, just lucky, but you can help luck along by being in the right area of the market. And by paying attention to the successful investors.

I fully expect a lot of my paper profit to disappear in the next few months as prices normally drift down to lows in March/April, but I am hoping that staying with metals will pay off by the end of 2011. I have shares here and in DXR because I am hoping that TW will be better than me at picking the good ones for 2011, and save me some brain strain. Much of the rest I will try and move into companies that are actually producing this year, and the rest will be wild punts. With a bit of luck I might even have a little more at the end of 2011, but I will be happy if I at least have the same.

Basically the secret of making money is keep an eye on those that are good at it and follow them if it looks promising. Bear in mind that even the best investors make mistakes, but only a few will admit it in public. Have a wander round the threads that people hardly ever post on, those could be the up and coming star performers. Avoid diving in just because the share price is going up, that's a good way of losing money if you don't get out fast enough. Most importantly, don't invest more than you are prepared to lose. Never kick yourself for selling to early if you sold at a profit. Hardest of all, if a share you bought goes down in price, and if all the potential is still there - don't sell, buy more.

I wish you all the best of fortune in 2011 and may your investments be multi baggers.
