tgg, I dig gold. But I sold out, as it is so volatile, irrelevant what happens in SA. It seems that some people speculate that gold is not what it use to be. I suppose the difference between me and u is that you can have gold as a % of your portfolio, i.e 30% or so. I cannot as I adopted breads 1 share portfolio method. Thus if I go for gold it would be 100%.  But yes, the day may come. Keep me updated on your thoughts on gold. Also I do still believe that if gold recovers to 1400 / 1500 level SGL is the place u wanna be.

PS. seems my small % of fishies and chicken is also not doing to bad in the competition.

Amazing how a diversed portfolio with 2 or 3 bad counters bring a average down. Where one share can make you tops.

Apart from the penny guys I now know why all the other competitions limit a buy of a certain share  to 25% of your portfolio.

A fund manger must be risk adverse, not an opportunist. My portfolio is also wrong in that I have to much SGL, but it was the share of the moment as jaydeb has shown, telkom as jaymed has shown was also a buy .


but neither is a good investment strategy.

So apart from the nice blond you cannot link me up with , it is still fun

jaydeb ?  ??? Is he now beating me.... ?

"My portfolio is also wrong in that I have to much SGL" - If you bought at below R12, and the gold recovers, not only will you smile due to SGL price, but also their divvie policy. But yes, it is not a easy call, as SGL is very volatile.

Saying that, I think you are where I wanted to be and planned that, but I got scared and sold all my SGL. In hindsight I should have kept mine. Hope my fishies turn into gold on the 7th Nov.

But i wish u all the luck with your SGL's

MoneyPenny and Patrick were discussing something together down there for some days. Wonder if it was strategies as she has now broken into a gallop.
Anyway, I am tired after my sprint and will rest here for a while.

It would seem that gold shares are making a move , so I could recover my losses on GFI.

Then you will struggle to catch me orca :)

Patrick how about a separate leader board without  the penny pincher's. Everytime TCS hit 2c or NUT is on 2c or climbs to 3c the whole game gets warped.

They are only there for irritation value anyway

I agree with that..... not that I'm near the top  :-[ but, it's annoying looking at somebody's portfolio and then you realize their shares are not 'real'

Next year there'll be no penny shares any more... And selling, with a kind of a tax system built in to level the playing field for traders and investors. At least the theory is in my head, building it still needs to happen!

The selling part would simulate more real time investing/trading.
I am getting hammered to the bottom by Ellie's  :'( :'(
