Penny,
I agree entirely with your comments.
Especially on the part about the ones using margin lending and what that practice can cause in the event of a sharp sp drop with the margin calls where some of the punters will not be able to cover their calls. OUCH!!
But, I suppose that another excuse will soon be invented in order to lay the full blame at someone else, not to themselves for practicing gambling and greed in the sharemarket where anything is possible and where even our WM told us before to "Expect the Unexpected."
The case of August 2010 was the real case in point but then someone never learns.......do they.!!
You'd be surprised if you were to find out what S&L would have had to say in that regard, if only someone was willing to share.
As for my holidays, well it will be long and probably a bit exhausting especially where I will be spending about six week all over Europe etc., and the rest in other places. If I get sick of it, I will come back on the set date and, if not, I might extend in other places. One thing that I am looking forward to though, is to be able to spend a few days with my twin sister which I haven't seen for a few years now.
I will be bringing with me either a laptop or an I-pad, just in case I will have some time to spend at night and read what posters in HC will have to say, and what CDU will be up to.
If the moderator will want me to delete the last paragraph, they only have to tell me and I will oblige, or they can delete that part themselves.
Cheers WG.
