I transferred bucks to USD to buy stocks when it was 13.5....sigh, all my gains wiped out now that it's at 12.00. Anyway, I started it for long term holdings

I transferred at R14.50! If you invested straight away you'd have been fine though, the world market beat the SA market significantly over the last few years, so I come out almost the same whether I transferred then or now. As it's impossible to time the market I'll settle for that. I always say it's never a bad time to do the right thing, and diversifying globally was the right thing to me.

Yeah I don't regret it, I needed to diversify globally. I thought if I'm holding long term then I'm not gonna sit for months waiting to time it!

Everything went down. I reckon it was because of Moody's note of concern on the Cape water crisis. At about the same time the Rand was trading at about R12K to the USD.

Just a guess. CPI was down about 10% at one stage.

Wait a bit, Viceroy was founded by a short-seller Fraser P-something, who partnered with 2 youngsters from down under and they are now Viceroy Research?

Articles in Business Day and Moneyweb today about Viceroys new target - Capitec Bank - which I suppose will have a knock on effect on PSG and maybe even Curro.
Seems like this crowd is a bit of a hatched job as they are short traders. I believe some or other company will target them and regret they put pen to paper
