how much has orbis lost so far today, page-5

Sarcophagus,

It's only a "denial of the truth" as you put it it is clear that the stock price or the value of what you have invested in is clearly going to zero.

It's also only denial of the truth if you happen to be a magician and know exactly when to enter and exit any particular investment and time the market perfectly and consistently.

Today, you are seeing a combination of day trader purchases/sales, profit taking, and traders who exceeded the T+1 contra-settlement rules on their stock trading platform as a result of teh one day trading halt.

In short, it is volatility, and time and again this forum has shown that few here have true belief, conviction and staying power.

I'm not suggesting that you be an eternal optimist Sarc, but as a shareholder you should have your reasons and your justifications for investing, otherwise you should not have. Just be realistic about your investment and what has and is occurring today.
