Re: Losing money?
Good question! As the market declines it is decreasing the value of the individual share. That is decreasing the value of your account. Now is the time for you to kick up the contributions and make it hurt. You are and buy and holder style and you should not worry. Keep buying! The cheaper the share price gets the more shares you get when your contributions hit.
Your account will not go to zero and if it does you have bigger problems than that. Eventually the market will start coming back so keep buying the cheaper shares. The more you do the more money you will make when we recover, just remember it will take a while to recover.
If you are close to retirement, five years or less, it would be a different answer.
