28 stock picks: After 1 month, 2 are soaring with 60%+ gains

About a month ago, ie the 3rd week of Sept, as stocks started to stir, we asked 11 private Singaporean investors to share their picks, with a goal in mind: Select stocks that will finish the year with the highest percentage gain.

(The initial story: T he bull looks strong. Here are 28 stock picks of 11 private investors)

Since then, 8 out of 28 stocks that were named have chalked up double-digit gains. That's remarkable.

And 2 achieved what can be described as mind-blowing gains: 67% and 64%, respectively.

The stocks are:

• ASX-listed Galan Lithium, which is progressing towards mining and production of lithium in 2H2025, and

• New York-listed Wolfspeed, the world's largest producer of silicon carbide technology. It is expanding facilities to produce silicon carbide wafers and devices for silicon carbide chips.

These chips are superior to conventional silicon-based semiconductors, and are used by many car manufacturers such as Tesla and Mercedes-Benz.

More on them below:

Wolfspeed10.24

Interestingly, both companies share several similarities:

•1. While totally different, their products are important to the electric vehicle industry.

•2. They have been loss-making for years. Galan has had zero revenue while Wolfspeed, US$807 million in FY2024.

•3. They are constantly raising funds or have been raising funds recently.

•4. Their stock prices have surged recently after a sharp downturn, indicating that they were selected by the investors right at the bottom.

Now, get this: Their current stock prices are roughly 10% of what they were 3 years ago!

Are the fundamentals shaping up for a sustained rise or are the stocks in a dead-cat bounce?

Aside from those 2 stocks, the table below shows the rest of the 28 picks by the 11 investors.

They reflect the investors' diverse interests, diverse investing approaches and risk appetites.

Thus their selections are not recommendations for investment for readers. Your risk profile and investment objectives may differ significantly from theirs.

Those with double-digit gains are highlighted in yellow while the top 2 gainers, in brown.
