Sir.

Those who, like myself, were misguided enough to follow your benighted advice of two-three weeks ago to sell Ralli while the going was good, will, like me, be regretting the loss of close on 50p a share.

I have never followed any of your advice or suggestions before, and shall certainly never do so again. Again like me, there must be many others who have the same sentiments that the sooner you stop setting yourself up as a financial wizard the better. Parts of the rest of your

column are sometimes quite interesting and informative.

I do so hope that you too have lost a lot at money over Ralli.
