Woman: We've had a number of emails from investors asking what to do with their shares in gas and electricity companies after their consistently poor performance recently.

我们收到了许多投资者的电子邮件,他们询问在天然气和电力公司股价近期持续低迷之后,该如何处理它们的股票。
Many of you might be thinking of getting rid of yours as quickly as possible.
你们当中的很多人也许想尽快出售掉自己手中的股票。

because pharmaceuticals companies are keeping the value high. Looking next at the sectors whose troubles have been in the news recently:
因为制药公司使总体价值维持在高水平。接下来看看最近新闻报道的一些行业出现的困难:
supermarkets, having suffered a downturn in business for over a year, at last have some reason for optimism.
在经历了一年多的低迷之后,超市总算有了一些乐观的理由。
The leisure industry, which has suffered even more than supermarkets, is also showing signs of a turnaround.
休闲行业甚至比超市的情况更糟,现在也展现出好转的迹象。
