Hi all,
In January 2007 and in a moment of (probable) stupidity I purchased some IShares FTSE UK Dividend Plus Shares. I've watched their value drop ever since....they've now lost about 24%.
Any ideas please? They're currently worth around £2.3K. Hold out for the long term or cut n' run, and put it down to experience? Thanks.
Brian.

Your thought process ought to be;
I turned down the chance to take a 10+% gain in July, and watched the ETF fall over 30% since then, do I reasonable expect the FTSE to rise by 50% or more anytime soon (12-24 months). And then make your decision.'In nature, there are neither rewards nor punishments - there are Consequences.'0
