Sorry I should have been more explicit..

I mean how is that any different meaning 'its pure gambling' as opposed to the idea that buying or selling a stock in 'investing'..

Yes I agree of course that owning a CFD is not the same os owning a stock.. I meant that really they are both gambling (or investing) on a price rise or fall based on perceptions of how the company will do. Niether seems more gambling to me than the other although one comes with much more leverage..
