My nett position deteriorated by 7,8% since yesterday, this represents a downside of 0,7% on my portfolio @ ruling prices. 12/14 shares went south, 1/14 went north, 1/14 could not decide.

Very important lesson for me: 14 must be diminished. 5 much better to focus upon.

I have 13 (unlucky) currently running at 50%up and 50% down - not good, would have been better in the money market! Maybe also need to focus, but does one focus on the correct half!

In deeper trouble, bought DRD @ R8 and HAR @ R103 about a year ago, and now I am 50% down. A time when the rest of the market has been going up by 50% the same time

Pondering: what if the Government was to publish a SENS, would yesterdays small budget require any announcement?

Trevor doesn't like the phrase mini budget - seems he considers it to be his interim report. Anyway - I cut some dead wood yesterday, and spent the month narowing my portfolio. Seem I started the ritual of diving into every opportunity ... discipline - opportunities will always re-present themselves.
