Okay, I'll be careful not to violate any forum rules pertaining to politics but I have to ask, now that we've started the 3rd quarter of 2022, How much in value have you lost from your stock investments?
After looking this morning, I'm at a 25% loss from my personal stock portfolio for 2022 and I don't see any end in sight. For me, this is real money I invested, not simply a 401k like many others might have. And yes, I realize a stock market correction is both normal and expected but how long are we going to watch it go down everyday before anyones willing to really say anything? It's almost like if we do, we're all of a sudden one of "those" people.
I'm also diversified in all my other investments thank goodness so I'll be fine in the long run but as I get older these huge hits certainly hit home harder then let's say the last recession. I'm just surprised that we don't hear more from the millions of other mainstream Americans in this same situation. It's almost like how dare you blame this on this person or that person. Personally I do.
