Ah, Micko, I reckon I might've missed the mark a bit with my last spiel. I get it, mate - it's been a rough trot with this stock, and the last thing you need is me sounding off like a kookaburra at dawn about things that might seem a bit out there, especially when you're feeling the pinch.

Hearing your take, I see where you're coming from. It's tough watching something you've backed not pan out, especially with the stakes as high as they've been. And yeah, talking up scenarios and what-ifs, I was aiming to find a silver lining, maybe a bit of that Aussie "she'll be right" spirit, but I can see how it might've come off a bit tone-deaf given the circumstances.

You're bang on about taking the losses with the wins; it's part and parcel of the game we're playing. And using those losses, well, that's just smart navigating through the ups and downs of the market.

I want to make it clear, mate - I wasn't trying to make light of the situation or spin yarns to mislead. It's just my way of trying to stay positive in the face of a downer. But I hear you, loud and clear. Let's focus on the facts, keep our heads level, and support each other through the thick and thin of it. After all, that's what mates do.

So, here's to looking forward, Micko. To taking the lessons learned, and maybe, just maybe, turning things around in our favour down the track. Cheers to that, mate.
