Ann: FY22 PRODUCTION UPDATE, page-77

"Stock markets should really be banned, to be honest."
It is not the market that should be banned, but the self banning of people such as yourself that are unable to differentiate between Value and Price.
Short sellers and others who cause a temporary decline in prices are the life blood of the Long Term investor who takes advantage of prices when they provide a high margin of safety.
Until you realise that the business performance and its prospects creates the value, while the price creates the opportunity and are capable of estimating the difference, you are much better off investing in an ETF. The diversification of an ETF is insurance against ignorance. Recognition of ones ignorance will ensure superior returns compared to most professionally based managed funds.
In order to succeed in life we must learn from our mistakes, and the only way to do that is to always blame yourself.
