Hang in there fellows the market will come back. I have been through this a few times in my life. I have learned if your are on the train don't jump off or it will run over you. Diversify your holdings well if you can and as you get older put most in "safer" areas. Nothing is truly safe if you want to make something on it but some things like CD,s and Bonds get hit less. If you have some money to play with and want to be in the market now is the time. I bought some stock last week that was about half off, Marathon Oil and Coke because they also pay a pretty good dividend. Over the past 40 years or so statistics show that when the market takes a big dip within two years it is back up with a pretty good gain over where it was before. In the big dip I think it was 2008 I took a pretty good hit but within 5 years later I had gained back everything I had lost plus half again that amount.
I am still cranking on that handle. 100 rounds of 9mm yesterday.
