Thread title talks about 'Dogs'....

Here are my Dogs at this stage. I've sold others off or they delisted, so out of mind out of sight.
WHL: 10 years LOSS=R40k INVESTED=R249k
IVT: 12.5 years LOSS=R30k INVESTED=R302k
PPC: 11.5 years LOSS=R55k INVESTED=R330k
ISO: 2,7 years LOSS=R105k INVESTED=R183k

The above LOSSES include dividends

If you are investing R1m+ you should definately use professional, can even go with higher risk funds like Peregrine Capital or Randswiss.

I've been managing my portfolio far above R1m for over 20 years

Fair enough also no idea what your background is but funds like Peregrine Capital and Randswiss achieve far above market related returns so if you have a decent amount to invest its always worth checking out the options with them. Big funds have to many regulaions and red tape that is why indiviauls / hedge funds can outperform them.

Biggets issue is emotional invetsing when people manage their own investments and the market tanks they often panic but depends on your overall risk tollerance.
 
Here we go again...
Sold the little I had last week.
 
Here we go again...

Urgh, think I've reached the point where I've lost so much on REN / ASP, no point in selling. Reading that news was rather sad.
 
How's this for weird, SSW went into halt/auction for like 18M to get dealt with, opens back up R1 lower.......then i see the exact same thing went down on IMP - that or the algos are mirroring each other, i wasn't looking the market depth on IMP.
Pretty odd

my SOL are still climbing - basically my only share that has performed this year
My TGA is also almost 100% and I'm on 32 for Aspen and 24% for Exxaro.

Unfortunately I only managed to buy a small amount of APN until it started going up again.
