    My spreadsheet puts my LVR at 74% based on extrapolated unit prices for the yesterday and today's trading price. Hopefully Navra's trading DCT methodology means the falls in the unit price aren't of the same scale as the index, but God only knows...


    Cheers,
    Michael.

    If you have the balls to buy big today, then you may be rewarded quite nicely in the coming months!

    For the purpose of this buying spree I have 'sub-contracted' out my balls to a third party to act on my behalf.

    At this time I would think are they are being firmly placed in a financial vice but hopefully the reward will be worth the pain.

    * I know we can use bold text for loud, but what do we use for high pitched? :confused: ;)

    correction, 248 points 4.3%

    How the heck is our market falling so much when the US is only down 7%, and now we must be down 14% and this credit crunch isn't even our problem!

    We're going to have to start discussing positively geared blue chips. This is stupid.

    Stop losses and margin calls must be setting in across the board.. this isn't rational.
