    Infact, come the next dip I'm buying a basket of outsourcing company shares.....

    Note I said "adjust" not change. Each day presents new information that supports or contradicts your current viewpoint. What you are is married to some doomsday events some blogger told you five years ago.

    If that's a little dig at me, best you know I have zero debt and have had zero debt since I cleared my mortgage back in 2009.

    People buy into this mindset. I was guilty of this mindset after the 2008 crash and missed out on 10 years of bull run in the US stock market.

    Now I'm never tied to any mindset, but adjust my view day to day.
    I've applied this to trading and it's proving profitable.
