    Good assessment. The additional "noise" on the site is unnecessary. Maybe they are trying to make it look more like a video game for the younger group coming in.

    Your very welcome. I just fell upon it myself a week or so ago. Just something different to look at. I like input from all angles. The more info the better.

    Welcome to "Circuit Breaker Friday" everybody . . . . . .
    ​Hasn't happened yet, but it's still early. Things have calmed down a little, so we'll see how it all pans out towards the close.

    ​The pain......but we already knew this, didn't we?? https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/...ions-stock-rut
    This is a decent read, but this quote caught my eye......
    "We've got a [Thrift Savings Plan], a 401, a 529," a second woman explained. "I don't want to look at it." She said the last time she glanced at her husband's TSP it was down $200,000."
    Okay.....who is it??. . . LOL
    But seriously.......I've known so many people / coworkers in the past who just never checked their accounts. Maybe a 200K plus loss means nothing to this individual. Maybe they have 2 to 3 Million already accumulated in their account, but still........that seems like a good bit to lose if you don't have to.

    I don't know, 200K amounts to 15-16% on a 1.3 Million account. About 3/5ths of the folks on the AutoTracker right now are down at least that much YTD. You haven't lost it till you sell it.

    ​I had no idea. I guess that's one way to look at it.
    But if given the choice of being down -200K or being at 0 or in positive returns, I'll take the latter every time
    .
    I'm at -2.46% for the year, and that drives me NUTZ . . . . . LOL
    I hate it.... I'd much rather see positive returns, but the state of the Economy right now is a complete sh1tshow, so all I can do is wait patiently in G-Fund until there's a major overall shift in the Economy / Market in the positive direction.
    I guess the point is, you don't have to lose. Avoiding loss in a bear market is just as important as acquiring gains, and there's plenty of helpful people on this forum who have great insight and are willing to share and help others navigate through crazy market fluctuations like these, but you need to actively be involved with your account. It's not really a "Set it and Forget it" kinda thing. Well, I guess you could do that, but that's totally up to the individual.
    Ooppss, sorry.... I got to rambling there... Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah . . . . . . . .
