My taxable account is up 70.4% YTD, quite pleased with that.

Overall I think we are up a couple % because a large 401K invested in "safe" index funds is dragging everything down.

I'm similar, at -2.1% with AA target of 67/30/3. All-in, spend adjusted. I've done more rebalancing than usual because of the turmoil.

-3.9%
I sold bonds for CD’s, I knew I shouldn’t mess with things.

+4.5% in a 40/60 allocation. I only have four individual stocks, but they have all done very well this year.

YTD I'm -2.01%. AA is 50/28/22 (stock/bond/cash) VTI is -3.8% so I'm feeling good enough, holding a lot of cash as equities are expensive and bonds don't look good, waiting for a buying opportunity but not reducing equities any further.

-.29% for the year.

My US bonds are up 6.26%, so there's that.

Heckuva lot better than I was feeling in early April.

I'm 45 stock/45 bond/10 cash.

Yes + living expenses, excess due to maturing CD's and having sold some equities earlier in the year.

Thought I would take a look today to see what my accounts are doing. From Jan. 1 till now I'm +.50 YTD. Now, looking at where the DOW was in Jan. 1 (28538 points) to July 10th (26075 points) I'm pleased with to see an above even mark so far this year.

Fidelity tells me that our IRAa returned +7.14% YTD. All non-IRA $ is in cash.

Fidelity tells me that our IRAs are 58% stock and is growth with income portfolio.

I am not happy with a couple of our stock holdings, may sell them and invest in those that I like better.

^ you have done well!
I'm close to 80% equity split up bonds and cash after that. It might not be good for others but for me, I'm pleased. This is all accounts and spending etc. at least I'm not in minus territory. LOL
