It's only a loss if you sell

thank yourself for your entry point or being so greedy that you didn't sell at the peak because you thought you'd milk more

I remember all the geniuses who just started investing during this unusually long bull run giving out tips like, "bro, take out a long-term mortgage and car loan because you can easily outpace the interest rates on those with your gains in the markets. Here, let me show you the quick math I did assuming a conservative 10% per year average return..."

Lol this is a retirement account, I am not trying to day trade or swing trade or something. I am putting money in funds for the long haul.

Yikes, well at least you're ahead of the huge % of millennials who have no investments.

0% gain/loss is better than an 11% loss, but yeah, in the long run should be better. I could see even further huge drops before it gets better though.

Well yeah, if you're already in you shouldn't sell low, but if you can avoid the lows in the first place then you're better off.

I haven't checked mine and I really don't want to because I expect a dip but at the same time don't rely on it so it wouldn't be earth-shattering if it took a hit but might be a buzzkill to my mood so I am not going to bother. I'll find out when I get the thing from them that I need in order to do my taxes and I will probably bitch about it then if it's not good...

I have 10k in a 401(k) as well. Lost a few hundred on that one the past few days.

I did get gas for 1.99 a gallon this afternoon though.

Why the fuck can't gas prices be this low when the stock market is booming

My portfolio is down 4.8% but my savings is down 12% from the start of the year. I'm holding out but I'm withdrawing my savings I've lost over 1/10th on that account.

I'm up 2.8% for the year. Would be surprised if I didn't join team red by the end of the year though.
