Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

So basically what we need is a slight adjustment in global regulations in order to make all shares tied to a minimum time of ownership - let's say 2 years ;-)

Shares would not be traded nor used as collateral during that time. The 2 year period would start from the purchase of the shares - to ensure an even volume on the market ;-)

Dividends would continue to be paid.

In one stroke we escape the quartal mentality, heavy liquidity, and bring some seriousness into investment.

It's a bit like owning a racehorse really. Or 'put your money where your mouth is and come back in 24 months'

You can't be me, I'm taken
