Just had a look at the leader board and though I am not doing great I see that I dropped from about 150 to 290 and all because I have not utilized my recent cash injection also the person sitting in 291 has some R600,000 sitting in cash
Surely the ranking should be based on the value of the shares in the portfolio and the unutilized cash component of one's holdings?

Cash is included gcr, so your ranking appears to be accurate

Thanks Patrick - seems that a few of my holdings are worse than leaking buckets and look a bit like the dams in Western Cape

Haha, Lonmin has caused me to drop from 15th to 322....in a single morning.  Granted all my eggs are in one basket, but I was enjoying the rollercoaster

Clearly you chose the wrong basket, should have tried the Naspers basket :)

Buying stocks have become a gamble so perhaps the index method is the best way forward. I have always liked STXIND as it was the best performer for many years and looking at the 10 year chart I think I should sell all my individual stocks and buy into it. Then I will only hold DIVTRX and STXIND.
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.

Orca - I tend to agree with you on STXIND - my view is that the only way the country will recover is through the industrial sector, mining is dead and corrupt. Other sector will only show real growth in industrials take off and they are by far the most likely sector to grow staff numbers

Actually, why is Naspers still considered industrial?
