It seems that your only method of debate is a personal attack.

Really thats a waste of time.

I have not changed my view of the overall market has changed.

You obviously dont look at outside factors. Go read The Chartist and see what they have to say. Go look at the comments at Davos. Really there is a serious question about the USA and whther the current last quarter results are restocking or real activity.

Shares are one set of investments within a whole bunch as is gearing as is property as is cash. They and the businesses dont operate outside of the real world but part of it.

I still think Map is a great company and long term would like to own the parcel I had but right now the risk to the downside is greater than a risk to the upside. What do you do I decided to move to cash as a better investment. I didnt change my view of those companies overnight it was a wholesale move to cash.

I am not sure if you can understand that as its a bit technical and it relates to looking forward as well as at each equity. Asset allocation etc etc. Unfortunately I live in the real world where it impacts upon all shares good or bad.
