I didn't DIE from 2011 but my portfolio took a big hit and that's because I was on a roll and didn't listen to my own instincts on the macroeconomics.
I'd been right on every trade for 6 months at that time and I had been expecting a very good summer because of exploration going on in the Yukon. Then the European problems came up and the U.S. congress problems came up and nobody hit anything in the Yukon.
On June 21st I had figured out that storms were coming and it would probably be best for me to just head for shelter but I let my emotions and my arrogance overrule my logic and I paid dearly for that mistake.

My gosh dude you can't blame Greece for that. Haven't you noticed that in 2011 and since then U.S. stocks did just fine as well as many other stock markets in the world? The problems with the TSX Venture relate to fraud, uncontrolled naked shorting and lack of oversight on the Canadian markets. Any macroeconomic events that you think are tied to it are purely coincidental. I'm guessing the exploration you refer to is for gold. Well gold may have dropped from $1,700 but it's still $1,150 which is still a very high price when comparing it to the last 30 years. Gold companies should not be so beat up as they are.
