Some (on CNBC) are suggesting we sell the news and others think they'll rebound since they haven't done well for a while. I'm in the negative Nellie camp but it's because my entire core is large cap tech. I've refused to sell and pay the taxes so I've tried to trade around my positions. My return % declined last year because I got trapped which cost me time. I made a bad buy in AVGO last week. I forced a buy and it bit me but I think I'll be ok. My biggest mistake was not buying SLV at 28-30 last year. I have to own my own stupidity and admit that when I force a trade I'm generally going to get executed instead of having a good execution. Many of your are older than I am (I'm 60) - does dumb ever go away? LOL
