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 rode the stock market down to 6666 on March 9 of 2009.

It'll come back.

In fact, article in USA Today that P/E's are looking good!

+1

I have an idea how many grand I am down from the all time highs, but I don't care to look at percentages. I've got a LONG time before I need it.

Roth IRA = -5.95%
Taxable = -5.87%

I'm not down that much $ wise, but I bet my % was higher...futures got me again on opening week in my trading account.

In my 401k/IRA, I'm down ~7%.
