You just did. LOL.
FOS Lenny.
I reckon you have about enough for a junior burger meal deal, if your lucky.
Ok big fish. I really do just trade in stamps, that's what my company funds me for.
It's not just about when you bought, when your going to sell is a big element and involves a stop loss to minimise risk and a profit target.
My point is and always was, for the average punter, buying a bank for yield is not a safe strategy in this current climate, I know many who wish they didn't and until you sell, you may end up one of them too.

Yep this guy is speaking crazy talk. Think he needs to book himself into his local psychologist.

I'm also curious about why you'd choose Elders?
Would also be waiting for IPL to resume an uptrend before buying.

I suppose what u paid for them is relevant.
Disagree.
How is cost relevant to whether it is a good portfolio at the moment? Right now what is important is where the share prices are going in the future.

MCW is at a 200% profit. Not bad at all.....
Did some calc's on your portfolio's return to date, assuming that it is still left untouched. The shares have returned 85% on the investment.
Good job.
Early on this portfolio was looked apon as not the best.
The above portfolio was looked apon as a better choice.
The return on investment in shares has been 26%.
Not a bad return 26% still. Must add both are a hell of a lot better than just 4%.
Looking back you question why didn't I do that. Was it just Luck? Maybe not!
Off topic.
In a few weeks time a property, I sold ,a year ago (with no thanks to the agent), is auctioned again. It was a property I spent a couple of years on near full time. It was sold not at a loss (because we owned it for 7 years) but was well below what it was worth pre Oct08. Now one year on, with not a thing touch on the property, and it looks like it may be sold for a $200K profit for the new owners tax free. It was my hard work, but mismanaged.
Now that is going to hurt.....
Perhaps saved by interest rates dropping to near half and cash hand outs.
I don't know...
Not saying you were, but don't ask me. :cwm10:

gooner please...your saying that what was paid to buy XYZ is not relevant?
following that logic it probably doesn't matter what XYZ is sold for.
As stock market investors we get to made 4 decisions
- How many shares we buy in XYZ
- How much we pay per share of XYZ
- How long we hold XYZ
- How much we sell our XYZ shares for
Our profit/success is completely determined by the above

When people are quoting percentage return on their holdings, unless you supply the date they were purchased, it's a bit meaningless imo.
30% return is obviously good if the stock has only been held a couple of months, but less than impressive if you've had it for several years.
30% return is obviously good if the stock has only been held a couple of months, but less than impressive if you've had it for several years.
Of course it matters what the shares are sold for as does the composition of the portfolio. These are things that can be changed. The price paid can not be changed, so is irrelevant in considering whether to hold existing portfolio or change it.
I may have paid $100 for Macquarie shares, which are now $50. Is the $100 relevant to whether I should buy more, hold or sell the Macquarie shares.
If I had paid $15 for those shares, would my decision as to whether to buy more, hold or sell be different? Why?
Obviously ignoring tax flows.........

It is interesting that most peoples portfolios fall in the first half of the alphabet.
There is so much opportunity in the second half that folk like me tending to be contrary focus on.
You only have 2 stocks after the letter M.
This is a common Broker's fallacy although please don't take this as criticism as I haven't read the thread to see how you chose these stocks.
