Hello all,
I have a Roth IRA that I contributed to in 2005-2007 before knowing anything about investing. Since I was young, I made overly aggressive choices, and my Roth's poor performance kept me out of the market for years after. I never sold anything. I don't know what to do with this account. I want to make changes, maybe even buying VEIEX since it's having a hard time, but I can't contribute anything. I have a TIRA that I established after finding this forum in 2013. I don't have a hard AA yet, but the majority of my new investments go in S&P500 indexes and I have some bond funds, too, now. I figured I would let this ride while I focus on future investments, but keep getting an itch to do something with it.
The Roth is 12% of my portfolio.
5.8K - VEIEX - Emerging Markets (down a lot, less than I bouhght it for years ago)
3K - VHGEX - Global Equity Fund (flat)
3.3K - VGSIX - REITs (doing ok)
1.5K - VGSTX - STAR (doing well)
