Technical definition of a 'doozy' = A big one.
Bill L,
Your example is good but crazy because no one would have only $100k of AMP in their portfolio. The key to risk minimisation (as you would know) is education and diversification.
There is very little risk if the two are followed and with a moving stop loss in place, youre safe.
BILLVAL, THE MARKET IS NOT RISKY!! Its only risky for you because you dont know what you are doing....thats it.....bottom line.
Maybe you should have stated in your first post 'The stock market is risky for me because i dont know enough about it and i have a low risk tolerance.
Personally i have a high risk profile and take risks and lose some money but make money as well.
My buy of AMP a while back was risky (it was risk combined with education) but i made a couple of grand for a few mouse clicks, i'll take that risk any day.
I knew that NAB tried to take over AMP a few years ago and couldnt do it at $21 a share, so i knew it was bound to happen again at about $6.50 which it did.
