ISA stocks and shares

[crankedup]

Wish to invest into a growth stocks and shares ISA and have had a look at what’s available. My attitude to risk would be in the medium category.
Would appreciate investors views on which Companies/ businesses/investment houses that they have had personal experiences. If I can find a short list to focus upon that would be great.
Not really looking for zip bang bash zingers but more steady growth.

Thank you guys, two conflicting opinions. I was thinking along the lines of global growth that would spread the risk very nicely.
Fidelity is one of the Companies which I used for many years, but that was back in the 1980/‘s and 90’s but I will have a look at them.
Any more please?

^^^^^
I was thinking along the modest / moderate lump sum of around 5k followed with monthly drip investment around £50. TBH it’s more a case of which Company might offer reasonable hope over a five year term. I had read somewhere that Fidelity had lost its sparkle.

Oh the management fees are also on the high side for my taste.

Thanks chaps, I am open minded at the mo, looking at Legal & Generals World growth fund which may be the one for me.

Do you want a recommendation or a crystal ball?!

Yeah I know, at the minute I feel little confidence in my own judgement, so a massive crystal ball please would be lovely.

That's pretty much the argument for global equity trackers:

Yup, with some help in here and some reading I have convinced myself that the Global tracker
is the one for me.

Thank you to all contributors for very helpful advise and insights. I have gone for the Legal & General World tracker and also thier Global growth fund for just a tad of excitement. My stage of life tells me to be relatively safe with investments unlike 30 years ago when I was heavily invested in S.E Asia emerging markets. Lucky I pulled my money two days before the market was closed for a few days Lesson learnt back then!!
