Seeing lots of post and comments like, I'm never going to recover, or this is it, this is the big one…big one of what?!?!
If you bought into some memestock, sorry, but sucks to suck, that likely won't recover. If you're holding quality stocks (i.e. MSFT, JNJ, AAPL, etc…) you will be fine in time, or better yet, if you're holding ETFs (i.e. SPY, VOO, QQQ) just keep buying and don't even worry about it.
The market always feels like the point of no return when we are in these cycles, but guess what, the market bounces back. Sure, some stocks don't, which is why its wise to stay away from the crap memes and just buy ETFs or super solid companies, because they have shown us they always come back.
I don't know where the bottom is, nobody knows, it could be today, it could be 2 years from now, time will tell. What I do know, the market has recovered from WWI, the Great Depression, WWII, Vietnam, 1973 oil price rise, 1987 Black Monday, 1991 Japanese Asset Bubble, Dotcom bubble, 2008 Financial Crisis, Covid?, and we will recover from whatever the hell you want to call this.
The market is different every time it climbs out, there are winners and losers, but the general market survives. Buy quality stocks and if you don't know what to buy like 95% of us myself included, buy ETFs like VOO/QQQ/etc… and ignore the rest!
tl:dr Don't worry about it, DCA and ignore the market and move on! Your 10 year from now self with thankyoU!
