Breeched the 100 day MA...market feels to me like it wants to have a decent 10-15% correction. Good quality stocks like SUM with a great outlook getting beaten up...oh my goodness..what to do ! Maybe interest rate increase concerns a little overblown but the momentum is there and while that momentum remains there's probably more pain to come. I sold half at close. (Can only be half wrong or half right going forward from here) SUM would say a sum-what more measured approach.

I always remember a statement from someone wise....If you are achieving a compound return of 7 %...PA...be happy.That by the way has been the average (I believe) return from residential houses for the past 100 years....Some of these retirement entities have returned ..what 350 %....in 5/6/7 years...
So your remaining ones are 'free' (or very cheap) .......
Yes very cheap but to be honest I can't even be bothered working out how cheap. As far as I'm concerned I'd rather just take a pragmatic risk management approach in a soft market rather than creatively engineering a specific outcome so I'm happy to leave the creative accounting approach to others.
