My screen is bleeding ; Red is dripping everywhere ! The Bears are savaging us. How long will this slaughter last? Are the Bulls an extinct breed?

This is ugly, the pain is relentless, whichever way I trade, I am getting slaughtered! My only shares that are showing any colour, not much, are the banking shares. That goes for my warrants account as well!

Yes, it hurts a lot. Lets see who has lost the most. At the moment I have lost 500k. (AGL, BIL, CZA). Who can beat that ?

Be realistic guys, you show only a paper loss for now if you can afford to sit out the cycle. 24 months from now you will brag on how cheap you got into Anglos.

Yes, probably will feel better in 24 months. It hurts now though.

Ja, tempting to buy more, but I like the look of GND more. Good DY and low PE. As Pam says, we will have to stick it out. When I break even in 24 months I will let you know (smile...)

500k is alot, but every loss brings you closer to a win, think about it that way, unless you have blown up your account already
