I'm p***** off big time. My father was a small town pharmacist for 50 years and accumulated a sizeable share portfolio, consisting mainly of SIP shares. The events of the last 2 months has seen his nest egg vanish before his eyes. I know he relied on his dividends from Sigma to get by, so there you have it guys............... there's a very human element here that is probably lost on a lot of you "traders" out there
