In the first two weeks of the new year ?

I know it will come back but this is painful to watch.

Just checked, not including today, down 7.5% in my 401k. I'm 90/10 split and have over 20 yrs left until retirement so I can only ride it out.

12% YTD

I'm young so I just look at it as filling up the portfolio for cheap.

Times like this makes me happy I'm a puss of an investor. I'm at 3 percent. Most of that Is my company stock.

I'm not sure, I just keep contributing to buy while it's cheap.

7% but is is ok - I hope to not need it and pass it on to kids on day.


Let the dividends continue to roll in - I will be making some purchases tomorrow as well.

Only down 25k so far but I expect this to keep going for a while


But I'm poised to buy heavy when I think it's near the bottom and I've got 15 years before I want to retire so not too worked up over it.

I don't go by percentages. I go by total stock value. I lost $25K in 2015. I'm down $1K in the last two months. My best year was 2013..up $51K.

-7.84% I'm only 31 so plenty of time left, but it still hurts to watch.
