Went up some money, went down a Mapletree. Not sure if I should be pleased or not.

i went up and down many times..


up and down on a ladder all day for 10+ hours, cleaning up the mess of a dance floor in my parents bar. I will be going up and down tomorrow also..
this time with 75lb lights in my hands..yikes!

Dipped a little, no big deal. I've been investing for 20+ years, and the market has been very good in the long term. I'm a "buy and hold" kinda guy, and the corrections (if that's what they are) haven't shaken me yet.

I'm not terribly loaded with stocks at this moment, having sold much of them 5 months ago.

 

[KYTGuy]

Lost over $100K USD, less than a proportional share of my retirement "nest egg"...glad it wasn't more. Talked with my financial crew - they assure me they are positioned to more than recover - I slept well.

$21G, but I was looking for a buying opportunity.

Probably somewhere around Dow 11,999.

I must have lost another $100+ USD in my equities today as well. I'm too depressed to even think about looking up my losses on Fidelity this weekend. I know it's only money, but this is my retirement fund or what's left of it.

To do: switch from high expense ratio Fidelity mutual funds to low cost higher performing index funds. Fortunately, Money magazine, Barrons, and Quicken along with Morningstar will help. It's got to happen after April 15th, 2007, tax day, so I don't incur even more tax penalties like capital gains or the dreaded AMT.

urgh....this week has not been good at all

Since I'm young, most my savings are in stock funds. Down $20k this week. Guess this is to make up for all the gains we were having earlier. Why does this market have to fix itself??!!!

 

[RadioheadJunkie]

I lost pretty much the last few days. I have a few stocks and also Silver. I'm not worried, the market will go back up in time

Why?

A hundred dollars isn't much money at all, even in a minimum wage job it's less than two days' salary. Frankly, if you're losing sleep over a couple hundred dollars the stock market is not for you.

Me? I've been making a fortune lately in oil & gasoline futures especially in the last couple weeks, and before that I was doing quite well in natural gas futures.

over 100k? are you diversified at all? i have a sizeable kitty too..but 100k for a week suggests to me the need for diversification...unless you have 10 mill in assets...
