[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone wise in Bogleheads told me once, “You only lose when you sell.” Eventually his portfolio will go back up and you will have a lot of money again.[/quote] Or they won't. Looking at the actual stocks her husband picked, they look like a bunch of trash companies that ran up during the pandemic and have been getting crushed for the last 6+ months: AMWL: American Well Corporation YI: Some online COVID testing company TDOC: Teledoc some online telehealth company AMZN: Amazon, well they have held steady enough LMND:Lemonade, an online insurance company NEE: Next Era Energy, ok they have held up ABNB: maybe ok, who knows. MASI: Masimo, another telehealth company PGNY: Progyny, some other healthcare online company FROG: I have no idea what this company does but the 5 year chart is a straight line from 87 a share to 21 dollars a share. Looks like a dog FSLY: Again I have no idea what this company does but 5 years ago it was worth ~12 a share during the pandemic it jumped up to 120s and then straight back to 12 again and so on. These are some of the worst stocks you could find, I have no faith in any of them except perhaps amazon. Your husband is the stock picking equivalent of a drunk driver, you need to take away his keys.[/quote]
