2007 share tips
Discussion
I noted that some of the 'professional' share tipsters from the press did slightly better than you could have got with an ISA in 2006, but not as well as a two year old could do by simply randomly selecting shares from the FTSE 100.
I was wondering if people had any general feel about where the FTSE might go in 2007 (ever upwards?) or whether now might be the time to cut and run to the Mercedes dealership with the loot?
Also, any shares that people think will be a good or speculative punt for 2007? A number of the tipsters are suggesting RBS again, along with gold as this world becomes increasingly unstable.
My tip:
Coffee Heaven and Coffee Republic again, with perahps a speculative Morrisons as they throw off their Safeways clothes and get their distribution sorted.
My succeses in 2006 were these 2 coffee chains, M&S, Laura Ashley, and Sheffield United if they can stay in the Premiership!. Failures were Carnival (who I now think can only go up?) and BP. And of course spectacularly Telewest.

Shares that I've bought and have lost money on but if enough of you lot buy then I will recoup my losses and the wife won't kill me: Coffee Heaven, Coffee Republic, Morrisons, M&S, Laura Ashley, Sheffield United, Carnival, BP, Telewest.
Sorry. My recommendations: Alkane Energy PLC and Cape PLC. Slowly but surely creeping upwards.

Pesky kids, they've spoilt my plan.
Company on AIMS called Virotec - Australian, delisted from the Aus Stock Exchange to re list here late 2006 - make a product that cleans polluted waterways. I suspect they're aiming to do quite a bit of business in Eastern Europe as the new entrants to the EU have to satisfy the standards placed down?

15p a share, sounds like my type of punt! I'll buy 3 of them!

Halifax Share Builder. £1.50p per transaction, plus stamp duty.
I think they buy weekly and collectively, and hold the share certs. You can't exactly seize the moment but as a long term and regular investment it is a cheap method especiallyu if you are doing the odd £100-£200 a time.
