    A $ is a $ whether you get it from a dead dog or a lively cat.

    I’m kind of hoping the dog will recover a bit first. It’s always hard to cut your losses.

    Is the dog more likely to to recover than your "star" is likely to keep flying?

    While you are right - it is hard to cut losses, it is normally much wiser than cutting your future gains!

    KW had some saying about buying in downtrends and the same thing applies (within reason) about selling in uptrends ...

    I appreciate all the sage advice from everyone. You will no doubt be pleased to know I am taking up my rights at least. Now all I need to do is transfer the sales of HBL so far, (only sold half my shareholding) from my non interest bearing account into my heartland bank account and learn to sit on my hands and not invest any money anywhere else no matter how good it seems. (the sitting on hands may not be as simple as it sounds)

    If HBL's banking services are as efficient as the way they handle direct debits then things can only be positive. It must have been pretty much as soon as my form arrived on a desk the money came out of my account.

    Yes well we all would like to agree with you,however it is not HBL who is quick on the withdrawal,but Link Market Services.
