Ken You stated ftse minus 40% worat case scenario....All the following are more than 50% down RDSB EZJ BARCLAYS HALFORDS Kier Differant Sectors and loads loads more....still wish I had the nerve to average down
I Wonder when it will filter in ...potential repeats if 1929...still think there are loads of folk out there ignorant as to where their pot lies with their discretionary IFA's...I could be wrong but what do you think
Bob ...Mr Pet...shortened I cannot advise you that would be wrong..and others would quickly be criticising me
Whilst everything is circumstantancial ........I am going to try and smoke this out ...to liquidate would be just what the MM's want.....IMO they have being waiting for this for a long time ....I could not accept the massive losses if and indeed when the market recovers...Nahr
My guess is that there are loads of people out their that have leveraged to invest ...I could be wrong...
BadcNews Just done a reconcillation today....ugly or what...a significant amount of trading gains over past ten years...wiped out if i were to liquidate (but I wont)
Good News Aether and NKOTB back on the boards and on form to!
Looks like a good idea for a get together could be Scotland in Autumn ...whos up for this then.....Glasos...or Edinos
Respect Tom..youve got the balls that I havnt at the moment.... Just getting my monies back off Jet2 Canx and Staysure Holiday Insurance....I am down to 55 in the queue ...I bet they cut me off
Nicely put Billy... My limit sell order set for DJIA pm.... I am still thinking Construction for tomorrow...budget and all that....but if you are not getting cheeky buy orders filled its physcologically hard to throw more money in when you are down big
Ps Got a last minute invite to Cheltenham but not sure ???
Do you have a SIPP......whatever you deposit the Govt contributes 20%.... For me being a retiree .. i can deposit 2880 for me n the Missus up to end of this tax year and at start of next that is 4 x 2880 an then 20% back 3 months after that.....
You dont have to trade it straight away until you are ready....and any profits derived are tax free.
But on a point of causion.....having made a shed load over the years....,my portfolio not looking so healthy right now !!!! Oh n its a bit of Red Tape to draw it down....but its doable
Hope this helps....but All the Guys who have posted their thoughts to you are spot on IMO
At which point do you start dipping in and buying....For me something is telling me its far too early...Darnt looknat the portfolio dont thinknthe heart would take it.... There so much out there that look like absolute bargains
