Buy more of it at a 17% discount, assuming you have a decent time horizon before you need to realize any gains/losses

like

@SC 1, yes, understood in terms of capital gains. On the flip side, it would be considered a loss and something to just keep track of, if in a taxable account.

@EY OP, there's no guarantee another fund will perform better. If the move fits with your asset allocation plan, and you've done your research, and feel comfortable with it, go for it.

Questions like this tell me you should be passive

Yea I am passive. Owning VOO and VEA now and thinking about moving to VUG growth stock

VUG is a good place to park your money.

Yes that is actually what I was thinking. VOO currently at 7% loss and VEA at 17%. Thinking about sell them all and move to VUG. I think the realized loss won’t matter if VUG will grow similar to VOO? Am I missing anything here?

What stock? Do you need the money now?

If it's either of those and you don't need money short term, HOLD.

Feel free to consistently invest.

It's fairly long term, but you'll at worst cut your losses and at best make modest returns. Not counting the dividends coming your way.

It's always tough, but this year it has felt impossible to stay on top of grading. Sure, there are online quizzes the computer can grade for you, but that data is so limited.

Between submission of blurry photos and going through the process of uploading, downloading, and squinting to see their work, it takes me 20x longer to grade work for my digital kids. #thestruggle

2. Use Roth IRA (and/or backdoor Roth) to take advantage of tax free growth and ability to withdraw principal early without penalty
