Sorry Lord Bhagholder, but you did exactly what a noob trader does - buy at the top. Yes yes, they would do the same as you , but an experienced trader would not. Lets look to Big Wazza as a leading example.
Right now (near the top), he is sitting on a humungous cash pile, over one quarter of a trillion USD . Why? Because he doesnt want to be sitting on paper losses for years like you did after 2008. He knows to buy at the bottom, not the top like you do. Thats basic trading theory 101.
So you think the ASX 50 was a "screaming buy" back in 2006?. Of the current ASX50, I could only find 36 listed back then. Only nine has appreciated in value 3 years after May 2006. Five did very well, the other four appreciated to an unexciting level. But 27 of those 36 stocks were all sitting on losses three years later.. 75% of them. Screaming buy? Well for a bagholder, yes, not an experienced trader , who buys cheap.
We look forward to your "magical" repeat performance of buying at or near the market top, and another 14 year exile say from 2026 - 2040. See you in 2041, if you're still alive.
