Interesting and not as difficult as it was a few days ago. I'm getting used to this. I'm down 20% from my 2 long term holds and that is even bothering me. I'm not gung ho about long term investing because no one knows when this will happen again in two months, two years, 2 in a half years or even 1 year and a half. It is not necessarily that the market will be better in 2 years, so long term objectives can be doomed as well. Patience is not a virtue in this case, getting out and saving profits are. There were many upgrades issued this month and the end of last month, price targets were raised by those 'suits' on Wall Street. I'm tracking the stocks and have about 1 dozen stocks that are down nearly 80% from their upgrade.
