John I appreciate your thoughts, I bought in at 92p. It closed at 85 pence. I think if it opens crappy tomorrow i will dump. The problem is that it is the natural thing to hold and see if it recovers. My whole portfolio is down in my first week (irev.l bought at 1.25 now worth 1) Itk.l bought at...
