    I own 2 months savings worth of stock - now down a quarter. I am fortunate that I can hold for 2-5 years if necessary. May rebuy... v tempting.
    My Goal: From 1st of Jan 2015 to 31st of December 2015 is to save 30000.

    48.78% towards 2015 target.

    105.3% towards 2014 target. :j

    Tesco is my worst performing share, but I am still in profit on the others overall.
    I expected some to fall and some to rise, which is exactly what has happened, and am holding for the long term, but there is no poll option for me so can't answer.

    Apparently problems in South Korea as well. So not a good time for Tesco's.

    The whole sector needs to be monitored for a while. Profitability may well slide far lower if a price war breaks out.

    Tesco's needs to find a strategy to fill it's store space. As they're simply too big.

    I have a tiny Tesco position down about 50%.

    I am just mopping my brow thankful I sold almost all my shares at 380p!
    Faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
  • I'm not buying, selling, crying or waiting for a further drop. I'm just waiting another 19 years and 11 months to see if I made a good investment or not.
    Q: What kind of discussions aren't allowed?
    A: It goes without saying that this site's about MoneySaving.

    Q: Why are some Board Guides sometimes unpleasant?
    A: We very much hope this isn't the case. But if it is, please make sure you report this, as you would any other forum user's posts, to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com.
  • I'm holding with a neutral expression, I never sell stuff when it is out of fashion. Still the same company and my local store looked plenty busy last week when I visited

    I would say not. There's over capacity of selling space already. With Aldi and Lidl still expanding, and Sainsbury also launching a discount chain. Morrisons likewise its local stores.
