Down about a bag since the New Year.....

I also bought this to add to my list of losers

Can't see why this isn't brilliant.  Hi tech, worldwide, not much debt record of increasing profits.

Down just a bit under 5% since Monday, won't say the £'s Sad

Biggest losers so far: next, Shell and Legal & General.

Not done any trading this year though, holding tight for now rather than any panic selling.

We're all getting panned. I've decided to look the other way

I capitulated towards the end of last week.  Think I'll just drip feed into funds over the next few months.

Turbulent times the last month or so and got a bit of time today so wanted to give some thought to things

 Click to see full-size image.


Overall things don't look too bad considering the recent bearish nature of things.

RR - the market seems to have reacted favourably to recent results and the new guy
BOO- apparently had a reasonable trading Xmas - I've seen buy notes with a target price of 50p - obv these are often nonsense, but it helps me feel they were a good choice
VOD & LRD - treading water but still feel there's some potential with these - especially LRD - time will tell
BARC - oh my, unloved at 220p - still unloved at 166p - so tempting to top up but on the other hand wish I still ran some kind of stop loss and had just slung them out at a -10% drubbing or so - now feel I don't want to dispose of them as the fall is so extreme - could prove, even at this level to be more hope than expectation

As I thought, mainly FTSE shares don't provide many thrills but BARC and RR show that there's still money to be made out of shortish term volatility - if you've got any clue. I don't so ima just carry on holding them all and look again in a month or two

I invested a smallish sum in Tesco in October, and then hit the panic button in January when it when it looked like Armagedon was about to hit and they just tumbled and tumbled and over the last week there has been a revival.   Not anywhere near there peak but far more than I bought and sold for.   Maybe next time I'll take some sound advice before thinking I'm setting up my own boiler room.

Some performance in these matkets, Nirvana.  Got more Barclays type shares than Tesco over the last few years.   Hate the idea of stop losses.  Just got to sit it out.   It will happen time and again over the years.   You just have to be mentally string and learn to just accept it.  Whilst you will get shares that just keep falling, most are going to bounce when the fear disappears. 

Stop losses just seem too much like deliberate buy high sell low strategies to me.  It doesn't even seem logical. Say you bought at 100p and canny Tikay bought at 95p.  Why should you be selling at 90p when he shouldn't.  You are both holding the same investment at the same price.

Love the line about setting up your own boiler room

Yep, take your ticket on stop losses for this kind of investing - more applicable to days when I was trading over very short cycles as there is an opportunity cost of holding (utility etc) akin to the talk around long term positions on the gambling threads

Re: LRD

A positive piece in today's MoS by Joanne Hart. "Buy now and be patient" - sounds very much like your strategy Nirvana.
