Thats what they use I think from memory.

Great arn't they:D

Strange etrade is missing international stocks when the rebadged directshares has it. AFAIK you can't margin on non ASX stocks but you can get it on managed funds :rolleyes: Some CFD providers would do more outside the box stuff.

Check out who is the top shareholder in ERA then say RIO has no exposure to that ;)

I kept my CGJ longterm when the broker more or less questioned my sanity in buying them to begin with. Sitting on just over a $10 gain each plus dividends along the way. WES is burning me at the moment having had the price rise $7 since I bailed earlier this year. Can't win them all.

I just buy both when I can and hopefuly on small dips. I am still underweight in them so still plenty of SANF left for me in BHP and RIO.

I think share trading basics and property renting should be part of your childrens education too. That is from a childless person though.

Mine stayed the same at the same price.

Yeah it is Internode ;)

I read this forum, a general investing one, a share forum and a games network forum. Now guess which form that was from?

Well they did finish at $4.90 still been a good share for me since 31/1/07 up 15.57% and I did trade the dips for a while as well.

I used to ride to work, some broken bones later, rehab and fun with insurance companies and laywers I now walk to work not that changing rooms will make me fit.

No offence taken Sunfish, I just wish I had taken a bigger punt on BHP and RIO than I did so I would of been on the seat next to you. While they arn't as good a value as they were I am going to go for more when I can.

I have bought a few dogs of the ASX most have done ok for themselves. I did buy a managed fund in 87 that became a dog and stayed a dog for years after it has been good the last few years though. If your thinking of retiring later in life smsf is the best way to hold shares. You may also...

While mining is flavour of the moment I have also done well with CCL, HVN, WOW, TLS ( yes I love to hate them but 15.5% return for 5 months is :) ) and SGB with a nice 0.25% discount off standard rates of my margin loan. I did miss my chance on ASX and CPU which have continued to climb, I...

I also hold MBL, MBLHB and I am looking at their Prime product. MBL just like BNB buys assets and spins them off into managed investments which they profit from every step of the way. Both need cheapish easy money and rising asset values to grow. MBL also has a range of property/share...

No need to trigger CGT when you have margin loans to transfer out profits. So far in the market I am doubling my investment every 6 months by being agressive and using leverage. I am now defending my position while still being at full stretch growing my asset base, so unless the sky falls I...

I think I took up the challange and increased my investments in one area by 500% for the calender year to date when I had the borrowing capacity for a 300% increase. I guess I enjoy pushing the limits :D

I don't like diamonds at all

I am not all that fussed where I live as long as the yard is big enough, she on the other hand has an acceptable standard that must be met.
