Generally speaking the aim of active stock picking is to find companies that provide returns that are superior to the market average. And in our experience, buying the right stocks can give your wealth a significant boost. For example, the Centrum Medyczne ENEL-MED S.A. (WSE:ENE) share price is up 92% in the last 5 years, clearly besting the market decline of around 5.9% (ignoring dividends). However, more recent returns haven't been as impressive as that, with the stock returning just 32% in the last year.
