>>The really funny thing is that I have had such a remarkably bad month with my portfolio down 30% in 30 days that when I felt like selling yesterday, and going short to try to recupperate some losses, I just decided to do the opposite of what I felt like I should do. So I decided to hold on. Sounds crazy but I'm sure someone out there can relate. Anyway, thoughts or suggestions are humbly soliceted...... Anyone?<<
Did you know that everyone on this thread except you are involved in this complex plot to ruin your life? Each of us will send you buy and sell recs that will eventually wipe out your portfolio!
Cry, bleed, emote, and talk about sex and oil here, but base your investment decisions on the numbers that are presented, NOT OPINIONS and personal investment advice. Nobody knows your situation and you don't know who the hell is giving the advice. If you are nervous, get a CD. If you are an investor who can stomach seeing your portfolio drop 30 - 40% but still wants to get rich, run the numbers, ask about specific companies, find out about their competition, and make an educated guess about their long term potential...THEN buy or sell.
We be a cool group, but we are not investment counselors. Hope I am not being rude, but losing money hurts more. I know... |
