If you're in a position to get really spanked, you should use options to hedge your position (I found that out the hard way when the GFC first hit). I jumped back in yesterday thinking it was near bottom - I'm down today, but not by much.
I guess the days of splitting are long gone. The only company I can see really having a decent shot at splitting would be google and all the gun and ammo manufacturers. *edit* And this is my 666th post, which pleases me. :transform I think that calls for an avatar change and maybe take a walk on the wild side with a signature.
True. Still, it's a bit disheartening when you look at the figures. 2008-2009 was pretty bad for my balance, but it's recovered.
