Getting robbed by the banks...CFD blowout

After chatting to a trader this morning I realised that I was far to over exposed in the banking sector (4 lots of bank shares) and even though I would make a loss if I sold, it would be better to make a loss now, free up the capital and buy a share with a chance of increasing in value. With possible interest rate hikes in the not to distant future in South Africa, the banking sector has little chance of recovering short term. So I sold 3 bank shares, holding one (which I think has a chance of slight recovery) and bought some other shares, and already I am up over all.

Why sell at a loss? So that I have the ability and capital to take advantage of other sectors that are increasing in value. My theory...small positions with small upward moves, banking small profits consistently.

BLOG about "BUYING TIME" and making sure you "BANK IT!!"

My life has been an adventure with many milestones, with many directions and ambitions, but the one underlying theme been "BUYING TIME". I believe time is a commodity which can be bought like any other commodity, and can be stored up and used at will later in life.

I am a businessman, an entrepreneur, and hope my journals will give you hope, that's it is possible to live your dreams.

In this site you'll discover two terms I use frequently, "BUYING TIME" and "BANK IT!!", a term I share with my life long friend, photo journalist Roger Horrocks.

I know that these two sayings will enrich your life and define it as a life with purpose, if you grasp them with both hands and embrace their concept.
