I just put part of my portfolio into a two year GIC, it's not much but its better than losing my underwear. Don't want to feel a draft like Foghorn Leghorn.I have taken horrendous losses on paper. My oil and gas stocks ( WHITECAP RESOURCES, VERMILION ENERGY ) took a dive. To sell now is to lose my shirt. Is it not better to sell later as the stock rises. It is better to take a 20% loss than a 80% loss. At bargain basement prices I could buy now and sell all my stock later
I'm attempting to build my cash reserve but the interest rate has been cut for the fourth time this month - MINGIA!::behindsofa:
