Re: Why the dash to trash instead of cash
by Mike Vezina
Another good reason that many investors often overlook is that if you have 100,000 and the market value goes down to 90,000 (10% loss) you need to make 11.1% to get back to where you were. It does not seem like a big difference, but, as the loss widens the retraction gets more difficult so I agree that buy and hold is lazy and an easy explanation for most financial planners.

“Dear Ms. Park, I watched your appearance on BNN today, and I just have to leave you a message saying 'Thank you' for giving viewers your very frank opinions about how things are going and certain industry practices. I appreciated you trying to give as much information as you could during that (too) short segment. Thank you for what you are doing for all investors!”

“Each time I see Danielle Park on BNN, I am impressed with her comments and insights. Other than Rick Santelli on CNBC, she is the only commentator that I feel is completely honest and trustworthy.”
