Experiment the power of nickel with DNI Metals Inc. (DNI)

DNI Metals Inc. (DNI) closed today session at 29 cents, for an increase of close to 30%. I made my initial investment in my non-registered portfolio on June 2009 of 23 000 stocks at 3 cents of the old Dumont Nickel (DNI). Dumont Nickel had become DNI Metals Inc. (DNI) following a restructuration. Following the transformation into DNI Metals Inc. (DNI), I transferred what I had left of DNI into my TFSA.

From the start, I knew that I was going to make money from this stock, but the strategy change among the way. At first, I wanted a quick buy-and-sell scheme. I wanted a 200$ profit to have extra money to spend for the summer. 200$ is not that much, but I wasn’t really looking for more. In the month of June 2009, for whatever reason, DNI make a nice little jump. So I taught I could easily make a profit from that one. But...

I was 28, wild as I am now, I wanted a profit, but I barely knew what I was doing.

Not that I am much better now, but I learn a few things among the way.

Because see, DNI is the kind of stock that jump a couple of times during the year for no special reason. That being a couple of times a year ONLY. The trading volume on DNI is very light. It’s extremely difficult to make a quick buy-and-sell deal on this one for that reason.

In June 2009, I became a trader. I wasn’t an investor anymore.

And in June 2009, I didn’t know what I now know.

I happily bought 23 000 stocks of DNI in June 2009 without knowing what I was doing.

However, I turn out well. Fact is, DNI Metals Inc. (DNI) turn out to be an interesting company to hold, especially inside a TFSA. Previously this year, DNI jump to the 40 cents per stock. But when it happen, I decided to hold. It was clear for me that I could make much more than 40 cents per stock on DNI. As for now, DNI is under the 40 cents, but I am confident that DNI could became a dollars stock soon instead of a penny stock, meaning DNI could eventually reached the 1$ per stock in a matter of if not months, a couple of years. I have all the time of the world and I am certainly not in a rush to sell my precious DNI Metals Inc. (DNI) stocks. From penny stock to a dollars stock, DNI can make it!
