I’d sell. A 50% loss takes a 100% gain to break even.

This is a very overlooked point

Ugh lol. Hope your shares can recover some by EOY. Hang in there mate.

-38% on SNAP, -20% PYPL, -40% HOOD all significant amount of shares.

Was up ~90% on SE, was a nice offset, but only up about ~40% now since the weekly hit.

Hope I don’t have to do some offsetting sales, but I’m very scared and not wanting to baghold HOOD/SNAP for much longer.

I’m down 50% on both PYPL and BABA individually…may hold until I can break even one day hopefully…no need for money in short term. Trying to Refuse selling at a loss despite opportunity cost

Yep I’m down a cool $50k this past week 😂

welcome to the party i’m getting big smoked but i’m holding

I am planning to sell by year end to offset gains.

Its a sunk cost at this point. The concept of you havent lost until you sell is a fallacy.

You need to evaluate if holding at the current price is a good strategy, ignoring prior gains or losses. Easier said than done.

Buy the dip

It primarily depends on your position size and how active you plan to be with this part of your portfolio. If you have a good investment thesis on ZM stay with it. If you don’t look for times to exit.

ZM and growth look primed for a bit of a rally relief. That could be your moment.

Is anybody up for a more focused whatsapp group and a weekly 15 minute catchup on zoom on the weekends?

The purpose for this will be that it'll get us to open our laptops and hopefully sit and study later. Also, it might be good to know what others are working on, give progress updates, and solve and discuss problems together.

This might also keep us motivated and incentivise us to keep working hard!

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much! I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do! Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

Hi! Can someone recommend a source for learning how do simple, fun music lessons on Zoom? I teach first grade and use music for my transitions. I would also like to play songs for them with my guitar, but am concerned it won’t sound good on zoom (the guitar, not my voice, which is bad, we established that long ago)

For me, the worst part of this online situation is zoom meetings with my colleagues. They're always so awkward that it makes me nervous. I'm never nervous in front of my students, though! Anyone else?

I had 3 webex interviews with the same link. The first worked great but the final 2 were no shows, the “join meeting” button never lit up when a host starts the meeting again.
HR claimed that the interviewers did in fact go the meetings, but that there could have been a connection issue. As someone who works in digital media, I feel as though the interface is rather simple and the error is not on my part or the app. Have you had any no-show web interviews? Issues similar? What are your thoughts?

For all these beaten down growth stocks if you are thinking of buying shares would it be worth it here just to buy a leap instead of shares and let it ride. I’m sure some of these stocks will never recover so even if the leap goes to zero wouldn’t it be close to the same loss as if you had shares and it keeps dropping in the next year. See PTON, PINS, DKNG, PLTR, PYPL and V(lesser extent) etc. I haven’t done leaps before and just trying to learn how best to use it as a replacement for shares
