My 401k is up about $97k since Jan 1, but is down about $45k from it's all-time high, which was in late Feb or early March, I think?
I sold everything in my brokerage account yesterday. Took my profits and went home PGR and Ford were good to me.
Interesting...
Are you out permanently, or do you plan on getting back in at some point.
If so, what do you plan for the future?
Not trying to be nosy, just curious.
My brokerage account is not my primary source of investment/savings. I have a 401k, my wife and I have Roths, my wife has a pension and a 403b, and we have 529s for the kids, plus a savings account, and 2 CDs for each kid. The $$ I put into my brokerage account was $$ that I could afford to take a risk with. Some of it worked, some did not. Overall, I did pretty well. We're about to drop about $40k into remodeling part of our house, so the $$ that was in the brokerage account is going to be put to use there. I am sure I will get back in at some point, but I'm happy with how it turned out.
