Agreed we go round in circles innit.
jswarde doesn't agree with your "but of higher concern is preservation of capital invested."
I wrote,
"They also hold some shares (DE quite a few) which are falling in value so why not throw in a token amount to arrest a severe slide."
jswarde wrote,
"Rowlocks": a falling share price does not, in itself, affect the value of an investment. In fact it can be agrued that, with nothing other than sentiment changing, a falling share price increases the value for new investments"
So no need to worry if it does drop to 15p it won't affect the value of your investment, its merely a buying opportunity.
