we r still healthy alive kicking and screaming, page-7

Well said Walpolepark. There will be a bottom soon and if you haven't sold it will be a buying opportunity or a consolidation of ones ssn portfolio..
To the average 'mom and dad investor' be very wary of the motivations of some short and long term posters; when you are reading these threads .
If you haven't decided to sell; then I would say that you have at this stage a paper loss ;aka 2007 stock market crash.
You sell now and you turn it into a real loss principally caused by the mini sp crash after the last coy ann .Very bad mostly uninformed comments has sucked down sp even further . At the end of the day you must assess your current risk individually and Not rely on pseudo intellectual and in some cases ego boosting selserving pearls of wisdom flooding into these forum's . AS Walpolepark has stated 'it is what it is ' and that is my benchmark .
I have not sold and still believe that SSN has a future ;so therefore I am not prepared to sell and take a real loss especially as today is the last day of the aussie financial year .
Tax loss sellers are still in the market .
Sentiment ;Sell = real loss ;Hold= Paper loss
