Bulletin boards are generally best avoided as anyone well-researched is drowned out by rampers (people who pump stocks) and those who don’t accept any negative criticisms of their stock.
Bulletin boards are echo chambers and one big waste of time.
ROCKETVI - shares are all about learning what worked in the past, what didn't work and applying it to the future. Sometimes we forget and fall back into our old ways then try to learn again.
You came through it and made money too. Well done you.
Thank you pedro61, you are very kind. It's important to remind people shares aren't a one way street to making a fortune. We all make money from shares and we all lose money from shares. We are all human. We need reminding always of the downside when we're too exuberant or the upside when we're catastrophising.
Ubik_Fresh - we all catastrophise about losing all our money on a share. We're human and everybody does it. What we need to do when our minds do that is think about what we'd do if we did lose all our money on one share. How we would cope? Think it through and then it isn't so scary. It's good to look at the downside, however it's important to balance this with looking at the upside. When we're in our worst catastrophe thinking that's the time to think about the other side. The same applies to when we think we're going to make a fortune from shares. Again, we're human and everybody does this.
At last Boohoo on a bit of a turnaround. It's only taken it two years.
Looks like it's down to Frasers saying it expects growth this year and people are still buying. However this may mean interest rates having to go up more and lasting longer.
