For my money, and I'm sitting on a loss on QAN and a loss on VBA...
It's only a loss when you sell them.
I don't have time for QF because of a disfunctional corporate culture and failed service delivery.
VB, however, has much potential. Not without risk, but then the buying opportunity would not have presented itself without risk. On this one, patience.
As for any investor who is risk-averse, ponder the words of the CEO/Chairman of Nestle when asked about his views in regard to risk-management:
"Life is risk my friend, if you can't accept risk you shouldn't be living".
