started the scarey process of buying back in and adding to my existing funds. they all dropped so nicely it was very easy to decide how much to committ at this point. i just brought each one back to the amounts i started with this year.
no way ill catch the bottom in this mess but even if we are 15 to 20% from the bottom id rather get in early then have the market take off without me . ill continue to add money every 5% drop from this point.
with my luck though it will turn before i have everything back in but heck id rather risk a bit of gain then not have cash to take advantage of more drops.
as expected my actively managed funds didnt drop as much as my index mix. i run 2 seperate growth portfolios. one active and one etf . i tend to favor the active mix. not onlythru the years has it performed better but in times the markets down the index funds stand no chance of dropping less or making money. at least my active stand a small chance of catching the right sectors. but none the less my latest strategy is to run both.
