I was hoping for a 20% correction so I can buy more....oh, well.

I think over the last few days, I have lost maybe 7-8% of my portfolio total...looking forward to a rebound. I try to think about being able to buy more when the market is down.

I saw a news piece that said the S&P 500 is pretty much just where it closed one year ago to the day. So any gains are from divvies if you stood pat.

I looked this up and as of August 5 M* has the SP500 up 2.2% over 12 months. If we add the 1.4% for today we get 3.6% for a year. Now that is not a rip roaring bull market despite what we hear on the news sources which seem to only look at 2019 returns.

There were a few bad months in 2018, October and December.
