Ape said "and poor old mums and dads who have just held on to their blue chips bhps rios wes cba etc have lost 40% of their nest eggs...buffet has a lot to answer for.(or 99% in BNB case)"
I think of myself as a long term trader/investor. But time frame is important. The share I have held longest (since Jan 04) is AMP. Sure they have dropped 50% in last year but when I allow for Divs received since 04 my cost base is now around $1.50 so still well ahead overall.
Would have been better if I had sold around $10, but that is hindsight.
