    It's not a loss until you sell the shares, right?

    Very true, but it is still painful to see how much your account fell over the last few days. Especially yesterday.
    May the force be with us.

    In a Ten Year cycle (?), there were 3 years (2011,2014 and 2015) when September losses were recouped in October.
    So maybe, just maybe - 2021 is the tenth year, so maybe 2011 will repeat itself...
    And the other 7 years? Well, I don't want to look at them. I just want to give myself hope....

    YR Month C Fund S Fund
    2015 September -2.47% -4.80%
    October 8.45% 5.61%
    2014 September -1.40% -5.10%
    October 2.45% 4.11%
    2011 September -7.03% -10.73%
    October 10.93% 14.09%

    C (S&P 500)and S (DWCPF) are edging higher. Will the trend continue?
    Per my computations, if both funds get a at least a 1% increase, my loss will be reduced to $10K.
    Is it time to cut the losses?
    Should I wait and see if tomorrow is another rebound day?
    Will the market continue to shrug off the Evergrande effect?

    Funds Current Price Market Trend New Price
    C Fund (S&P) $66.11 1.20% 66.90
    S Fund (DWCPF) $84.63 1.09% 85.55

    If the current trend continues, I will be only $2900 in the red at the end of day.
    The million $ question, do I stay or do I move to safety in the next hour?
