I keep remining myself its a marathon not a sprint, 22 years until I retire so I can take a few bumps in the road ;(

Carnage. I topped up a little on Lloyds last week. Had a quick In / Out with Glencore, but the drop on Lloyds wipes that out plus some.
Put 20k into my pension fund last week as well. Dropped about 25k in total on that in the last six months.
Work shares have capitulated, pretty much halving, and as most of mine was options at a lower price, the true drop is around 75% and a six figure drop in a matter of two weeks
Waiting though with a shed load of cash, so will see what happens for now.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

Yep. Tempted by BARC too, although somewhat riskier. I think the read across from Deutsche and the like is being overdone. Yes, they are less appealing in a low-rate environment, but they are starting to get priced for failure. Dividends are increasingly appealing too so, if you're willing to stick it out, they're probably a good long-term hold at these levels.Originally posted by pjclarke View PostLLOY very tempting, shame the coffers are bare ...Comment

Im down 16% YTD, topped up on Lloyds at 72p thinking it was low. Seriously considering a big banking splurge but who knows there could be another 25% in this rout?Comment

I'm still buying steadily, global index on a value cost averaging basis, note - not Pound cost average (formula means you buy more if the price drops and less if it rises).
Couple of investment trusts on automatic monthly payments which takes decision out of the process.
