Re: Re: [sharechat] Portfolio Theory
FRE was not the risk it seemed, have still got them. If it all turned to
custard they have a healthy div and that is a safety net of sorts , I look
for a safety net in all investments made.
Being a lower priced share when it goes up 3 cents as it did today it really
boosts the value to take advantage of this you need a lot of shares.
