Do both?

There is a reason you bought the stocks in the first place, right? If you still believe in those companies, there’s no reason not to buy on the down days. That’s if youre in for the long-term.

Bloodbath’s about right, it’s been long overdue.

What stocks do you own? If they are the big well known companies like Microsoft etc., you’ll be fine. Just buy more as they go down. If there’s another huge crash you’ll be glad you kept buying once we emerge on the other side.

Look at Amazon during the depth of the pandemic crash in March. Wouldn’t you like to buy some at that price?

Wouldn’t call this a bloodbath quite yet. Let’s see how long it drags on for.

Not the worst since March either. I’m not going to forget anytime soon the 4-5 week period not that long ago that took my account from 25% gains to 4%…!

Now THAT, my friend, was a bloodbath…! 😐

I can’t handle a few weeks of constant red. I’m just going to assume that the worse is behind us from the drop from COVID. It’s not going to cause a second drop as bad.

It’s amazing how trump puts out a tweet about how well the stock markets doing then the very next day everything sells off and I put it in the help section because that’s what I’m asking for ,help and advice on, do I hold or buy more.

Am I nuts or is that not a help question?😂🤣🤔😂
