voost, I've already written off the 67k * 40 c shares in my own accounts. That closed off end FY16 and already forms part of my overall loss (though not realised loss) If the stock went to zero then the loss already accounted would of course be realised, that is only a tax function as I said my internal accounts have costed them at zero from 1 July. It has no bearing on FY17 and beyond and my 155k contracts hedged.
The 67k shares sit in a separate account and do not form part of my strategy (similar to a separate Super account though they are not under the Super umbrella). If I'm right in the long run they will be worth $200k or more, if I'm wrong then they are already accounted as zero. Although not touching them if the stock was clearly doomed I would presumably salvage some of it and that in effect would be a bonus as the full amount ($26.8k) is already written off.
