<prompt> Human: I know, I know... keep it and the market will eventually go back up again. Well, the last time I did that in 2009?, I lost five grand and it took four years to recoup it. Im not sure that I want to ride that roller coaster again.Anyone else facing this dilemma? Thanks for any positive feedback.  <response>: the last time I did that in 2009?, I lost five grand and it took four years to recoup itYou didnt lose anything, as long as you dont sell shares thats whats known as an unrealized loss. 2008 was the worst economic crash since the Great Depression. Its very unlikely that this tiny dip will be anywhere close to that, and even if it is, you can ride the wave of the economy recovering again assuming your investment horizon is long enough.
