Re: Margin Lending


I run my portfolios pretty close to the buffer most of the time. I just checked them then and the Comsec Loan is at 66.92% out of a maximum 68.81% and the BT loan is at 67.67% out of a maximum 71.49%. I have a few 75% LVR stocks in both portfolios and generally don't buy anything with less than 60% LVR.


As I said earlier, I've never had a margin call and have only been in the buffer (just) a couple of times.


I do occasionally use instalment warrants, but as mit said liquidity and spreads can be a problem.


Rod.
