Yesterday was WAY TOO LATE to sell unless you think the market will drop another 2000 or 3000 points this week. I "lost money" on paper much of this year. But, I have 20 more years to go to make it back. If you are close to retirement age and are still invested in aggressive stocks you probably got hurt but your portfolio should have been allocated very differently from mine if you are 5 years from retirement. If you have somebody managing your money and they left you this exposed you should switch managers. If you are managing your own investments then you should get some help BEFORE you sell right now! Don't destroy yourself in a panic. I hope people aren’t panic selling now! Yesterday was WAY TOO LATE to sell unless you think the market will drop another 2000 or 3000 points this week.
