    That would be very unusual, especially for the last 6 months. Even a seriously bond heavy portfolio should have fared better than that

    I don't know. My work pension seems to lose around £300 a week, no matter how the stock market is doing. Effectively all my contributions are disappearing into the ether.
    If it is lower than it was 6 months ago, then it must be invested in something rather unusual. Can you say what fund(s) it is invested in?
