ten-baggers
Stocks multiplying tenfold
Ten-baggers are investments that increase tenfold in value—turning $1,000 into $10,000.
The term comes from baseball, where bags are bases: a ten-bagger would be circling the bases more than twice on a single hit.
Investors use it to describe spectacular winners: Amazon was a ten-bagger for early shareholders.
The term was popularized by fund manager Peter Lynch.
