Holding and buying as always. Why be worried if you're investing for the long run? Isn't a sale exactly what you want?
If you're concerned, you may have invested more than you can afford to lose. Or you need to stop looking at the charts everyday.
Are you 63? If not, don’t worry about it.
Buy buy buy
No I am not worried. I will just keep buying when I have money just like did in 2000 and 2008. So far this is not even remotely close to that.
I’m not retiring for 30+ years (mid-20s), so I’m not concerned at all. I am down quite a bit though

Why does everyone have to do something? Do nothing…

I’m not even down that much. Seems like many in this bowl were overweighting tech based on past returns.

Why you pay my partners a million bucks*
Thanks everyone….not retiring soon.. just wanted thoughts of others
I rebalanced my portfolio to 40% cash, 30 % bond, 10% total market, 10% emerging market (China), 10% Global ( Europe) beginning of the month, boy oh boy, So Glad that I did that. Will wait the tumultuous market to stabilize before rebalancing to 100% stock again
Yes. I’m heavy in tech and growth, so I am concerned. This has definitely delayed my retirement: :(
I’ll be the contrarian. While I agree, don’t sell in a dip, your asset allocation is likely not appropriate for your risk tolerance. Everyone has a different risk tolerance and none are wrong. What is harmful is taking on too much risk for your tolerance and then selling low because you’re scared. Having a mix of only the current hot performing sectors (tech in your case) is not optimal. Diversify and have other areas. If you have little interest, look into VT or a combination of VTI, VXUS and BND. Then you’ll be diversified, it might give up some gains when tech is over performing, but you’ll be better positioned when the market moves.
All markets are bull markets over a sufficient time period
No changes from me
Same asset allocation (100% equity split over US index, Intl index, Small cap value, and REIT). Plus my cash + emergency funds.
I'm doing what I honestly shouldn't be and that's buying more (I'm sort of saving for a down payment). The condition in the market is making it very hard to not take advantage of all these deals on certain equities that are almost never discounted.
I wanted to buy avis @$8
