I've only been buying shares for about a month. This was one of the 1st stocks I bought ($500 worth only, as that was the minimum, and I really didn't know what I was doing!). My neighbour mentioned she had bought some a few years ago and we got talking about stocks and how it doesn't have to be an expensive exercise to get started. So I put my toe in. Did a bit of research, and figured it all sounded pretty good. I almost dumped it as almost as soon as I bought it, it dipped. But I held in there, and hopefully this will end up being a good thing. I hope so. I almost wish I'd bought more now just in case. I bought in at 21, and it dropped badly (well, I thought it was bad!) after that. I'm currently up almost 10%, so I can't complain about that! I currently have a small portfolio of 5 different shares, and some are up, and some are down. Until 3 days ago I was up overall, but now I'm 2.25% down overall. Still not to bad I think for someone who knows nothing. Looking forward to seeing what the open brings today.
