Great post, RF !!! It's good to be reminded every so often !
I, too, have a tendency to fall into this trap...I did recently sell some stinkers, but...just over the last few days, I've been fretting and worrying much more...watching the talking heads...
Today I spent some time updating my spreadsheets, and you know what ? Taking a step back and looking at it...I'm okay !!! Ditching some of the stinkers and going to cash, and minimizing/eliminating my "mad money" trades...and I thought about those recent swings in stock prices. Yeah, I still have some huge holes in the ground, but overall...my "Plan" is working ! Ya gotta figure, stock prices might go all over the place, and build that in to your "Plan"
That's the key : Have a well-thought-out "Plan" that one is comfortable with, and stick to it !!! Don't ignore it, but don't sweat the day-to-day gyrations, either !
Now...if only the O's could start winning some games again...
Stoplight...
