We all see from different perspectives.the divs. by and large have been OK for me ( so far ) would i have been better taking the capital gains ??
taking the cash and running for the sidelines isn't my usual game , so without other reasons to sell i never really considered that option this year
the selling high ( higher than i bought ) isn't so much the problemWe all see from different perspectives.
I don't have a problem selling high and buying back low,
It is all starting to get the self fullfilling prophecy look about it IMO.Personally I see it as an occurrence which has the "look and feel" of a recession and the last time we really had that in Australia was the 1990's. Most visible signs = business failures, mass unemployment and a general sense of doom and gloom.
Stocks that reinforce the Media's narrative and give regular blue sky announcements are what the desperate ill informed will be jumping into IMO. There will be a lot of desperate highly geared people who are willing to gamble, the media will give them the rainbow, my guess anything green, clean and high media coverage. LolBack to the market, well if you were to take a list of the ASX300 or any other fixed list of stocks that wasn't picked specifically based on recent price action, and then went through them one by one and had a quick look at a chart, well there's an awful lot which have seen serious declines from the peak. It's not hard to find something that's massively down, 50%+, from a peak sometime generally 6 - 12 months ago.
This isn't a market where just randomly picking stocks, or even a basket of them, will work.
i have resisted leverage ( so far ) however should the market tumble ( more )It is all starting to get the self fullfilling prophecy look about it IMO.
Across the board payrises, followed by across the board price rises, followed by interest rate rises, then rinse, wash, repeat.

Meanwhile stable dividend paying stocks are always a great pickup in times like this IMO.

Wait a bit longer...there is no rush...how far away is October....only my opinion.It's not too late to be looking at Banks... in my opinion only.
Too right....patience...am watching but need my preferred targets lower
Around 57 days...?how far away is October.
well i am looking at the smaller ( 'higher risk ' ) banks because i am hoping for 'growth .. now if they hit a pot-hole i think the government will be less likely to save them ( in a way to protect share-holders ) ( more likely to be force-merged into a major )Too right....patience...
don't some of the banks report about then ??Around 57 days...?
Forgive my ignorance, but, what's special about October this year? ?
