Since "This market" has been gripped by bad news for around for 6 months or more I have attached zoomed charts for January onwards, including this weeks falls.


The ShareFinder portfolio has dropped about 14%, since a new high was made in May. This is by no means the worst drawdown it has experienced. You may see in the older pictures below it it reached about 19% at the end of 2003, which was a long slow bear market. Putting this in perspective of the overall performance since 2001, IMHO this is just a must have glitch on the screen. The stat's say it only has 47% of it's cash currently at risk in the market. This is part of the money and risk management rules.


My portfolio has faired worse because as I said I made some mistakes. I'm currently down about 23%. I didn't make that new high in May. :( I only have 35% of my cash at risk in the market.
