Harry Nimmo on Biggest ain’t best

Thu 20 March 2025

Harry will talk about the key lessons learnt when picking stocks, constructing portfolios and building a specialist investment business. He’ll look at the characteristics in common amongst winning stocks and losers, and examine the importance of the sell signals to be aware of. Most importantly Harry will intersperse his theories with a liberal dose of examples and back stories and conclude with his view of the future for investment companies and smaller companies in particular.

For any existing investment practitioner, a budding one or for those who want to know the secrets of successfully investing in smaller companies, this will be a very entertaining and educational event, and another key talk in our series interviewing expert investment managers.
