Last week was dismal, with bank and consumer stocks taking a pounding. I had a small rally in my mining stocks and made a profit on Friday (twice! when I bought and sold the same share twice during the day - that was cool). I shut my computer down and went to Sodwana Bay for the weekend, South Africa's premier scuba diving location, for the Winter Game fish Spear fishing competition.
As my hooked finger is still in stitches I wasn't able to dive, and spent the day as the "bakkie boy", driving the boat for John Girzda and Chris West. They came fourth and third respectively, and I had an awesome day, calm seas and very mild, sunny weather. A glorious day at sea. John and I took our families up, and we had a great weekend with the Sue and Manuela and all our kids.
Back at my desk I am looking at my battered CFD positions and they aren't so battered any more, the banks and consumer stocks having recovered slightly from Friday's close. Still a way to go before I am in profit but, in this instance, having no stop losses has allowed me to still hold the shares, without selling at a loss, my cost the daily interest which is factored into my profit and loss account. I feel it in my waters...the tides a turning.
