Pointless Venting6 Apr 2022 09:11
Is there really any point in the two of you posting daily, venting on a public forum that you are / were so unhappy with an investment which you yourselves made, of your own free choice, and that you feel so stupid for ?
Personally my portfolio is well in profit, and sometimes you lose, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot, but overall if you are not stupid, you can make serious gains.
Here is a case, which I chose because of my own personal criteria, which is high risk (AIM), and has enormous potential, and having built my portfolio on high risk, high potential gain, from a mere £50 a month "Smoking money", I am quite happy to still be here, as are many other "Serious" investors.
Your daily ranting on this board contributes nothing, go take a walk, or do something else, you made your decisions which you now regret, its your own folly or lack of judgement, the rest of us are still happy to hold, confident that it will turn round one day.
My criteria is simple, look for an AIM stock whose share price has fallen off a cliff, look at the assets and assess a real world value, look at the team and what they have achieved in the past (Here is exploration), and assess if there is a good (5x or more) potential upside.
Some of my stocks have failed, others have done remarkably well (PREM bought at 0.05 - now sold, UFO sold at 6.5p, CUSN - sold at 27p, and more besides, my big breaks were UKOG bought and sold 3 times in a week, BYOT bought and sold twice before pandemic, and more besides).
Follow the rules and only invest (gamble) what you can afford to lose (smoking money) and get off this board.
This is still a long buy in my book, so I am holding.
