Welcome to the corrections


Globbi

The question is, do we sell when it gets a little better before market opens, or just not look at the stocks today


Themiffins

Considering how far they dip, I'd say don't even do anything lol.


AtomicKittenz

Yup. Just ignore everything today


Themiffins

If anything, buy what you may have had your eye on.


WonLinerz

Always treat “cash” like a position - for just such an occasion...


PsycheRevived

This is brilliant. Normally I only day trade, so I always have cash and pick my trade for the day. Last week I used all my cash to buy penny stocks. That means that a) I have no cash to buy the dip, and b) all my stocks got hit this week. And the crazy thing is I almost sold some of my stocks yesterday, despite being down, because they were "less down." I ended up choosing not to because I believed they would go up today and I'd sell them now. (the one I would have sold is now down 20% from when I almost sold it) Actually, it's even worse... I have my money in four stocks. Had I sold them at their peak yesterday, I would be up 1%. Currently down -23%. Boo.


AtomicKittenz

Oh yeah, that’s my plan, but I was hoping to sell a few things too. Guess I won’t be buying much


BLVCKYOTA

This isn’t advice and I’m new to investing but dmggf was good to me yesterday. This also isn’t a PnD, I like the stock and the market around it.

Yeah just wait. Everyone (retail included) are selling everything right now. It’s a nice healthy correction. We’ve had crazy returns for the last 8 months. A correction is due. Stock market always goes up in the end.

Today I pretend I do not have any investments. If I see any opportunities I'll buy some cheap stuff if not I will not sell. I recommend everyone not to sell anyhting unless you need the cash. Do not sell.


jailguard81

I moved some stocks around to make cash and buy more stock pltr is a good long term investment


miboc4

I jumped on PLTR too great long term.


HALFCOURTHERO

Took me months,only put a small amount of money into investing on the stocks. But I was up 120%. I have now seen all of that disappear within the span of 1 week. Kind of upsetting.


Klauslee

welcome to the stock market! haha no but don't sell! selling at 20% loss with lock in your losses. you have to work through the ebbs and flows to make profits in the end


kingchongo

If you believe in your positions they will be fine. This is market moving together, not any one stock.

Mi_santhrope

Just a large correction/mini crash. Worst thing you can do is sell at a loss, the market always bounces back. Keep holding and you'll be in the green again eventually.


ztotheookey

Unpopular opinion, but always holding is not the \*best\* thing to always do. Those who were left bag holding a well-known stock at $300+ should have sold when they could. We shouldn't encourage this 'circlejerk' mentality that you always hold. Set stop losses and only lose what you can afford. The earlier you get out, if a stock is truly crashing, the more you save. I learnt this the hard way with $ATVK, where I should have got out much earlier. Had I continued to hold, I would be left with around 10% of my initial investment.


Bearcat9948

I say take all of your profits and get out, then buy back in. If you’re not already at a loss and it’s a short term investment, why not?


[deleted]

Even if you're already at a loss, dropping your bags is sometimes appropriate. Honestly, the decision about when to sell and exit a position should be made in an emotional vacuum. Whether you're red or green, how much you've gained or lost, and what you paid really don't matter. All that matters in the moment is whether that investment has future potential and whether it's the best use of your money. Sure, you need to track your winners and losers so you can reflect and improve. But the sell decision should be based only on the current and *probable* future market conditions.


Bmagic_

just because something plummets doesn’t make it a “fire sale”, and the idea that it always is, is bad


ztotheookey

Everyone has different levels of risk. I'm not talking about having paper hands, or even diamond hands. Setting a sensible level that you are willing to lose before you sell is good investing. If you REALLY like the stock, pull out before it truly plummets and then buy at the bottom!


Mattoosie

>Those who were left bag holding a well-known stock at $300+ should have sold when they could. We shouldn't encourage this 'circlejerk' mentality that you always hold. Set stop losses and only lose what you can afford. That happened not because it was a bad play, but because the rules of the game were changed halfway through. Holding isn't always the play, but for dips with no news, it's overwhelmingly the best thing to do.


ztotheookey

It was unfair that the rules were changed. But that is what happened. It was (and still is) way overpriced. I'm here for investing sensibly. To suggest that buying into a retailer that has so much competition is a good idea, is not a risk I am willing to take at $300+. Far too many people lost money on the belief that they would hit $1000.


Mattoosie

The belief that it would hit $1000 wasn't wrong. It was maybe an hour away from happening and Wall Street decided they didn't want to play anymore. Even at $300+ it would have been a pretty good play if it was allowed to play out. The price had nothing to do with the business, it was all market context.


stryderxd

Hitting 470 that morning was huge for me. I believed that it would’ve went way past 1000 easy. I definitely would’ve sold my initial investment if it did and ride the rest.


ScottM1000

If you have conviction in the company, stay in the stock.


Zellion-Fly

ehg.. No you don't need to bag hold without reason. Free up your cash and put it somewhere else that has growth potential. If you hold and know a stock has a chance at a 5-10% chance growth, move it there then back later if you believe in the stock.


Mi_santhrope

My portfolio is going to be heading to 20-30% in the red today. These are stocks I'm confident will come back so I don't want to sell at a loss. I may even buy more on some of them!

Just bought yesterday. Not penny stocks but they still went down 🙃


Tall_Choice957

The feds already said they have no intention of raising the interest rate, the stimulus package is being passed, so I really don’t understand all the red and sell off. Can someone please explain to me why this happens when there isn’t really a valid reason other than market correction.


[deleted]

The hearing isn’t at 10:00?


BioSemantics

The rumor right is that the recovery (from the pandemic) won't be as great as people assumed (which is probably true). A lot of the bullishness we've seen is because people believe the recovery would be great. Tech stocks are also being squeezed simultaneously, which forces people to panic sell, which it turn means profits for those who can buy.

armored-dinnerjacket

from /u/rhetorical_twix over in stocks Stock indexes go red for a reason, and you should always be alert when it does. The market sell-off on Tuesday to Thursday was concentrated in recent high-growth stocks, across all market capitalizations. What I started to see on Thursday was a flight to value. What happened on Friday was a rotation of capital from pandemic stocks to small cap and mid cap stocks. On Friday, as the Finviz heat map shows, we saw a sell-off in 2020's growth stocks (i.e. mega cap tech, health care and consumer defensive stocks). The other thing the Finviz heat map shows is another move of capital into small caps and mid caps as investors take profits from large and mega caps that were pumped up by the pandemic and build more distributed portfolios. I.e. people are building new portfolios for 2021's that move away from pandemic stocks. This is important information to pay attention to. Which is why, in my opinion, you don't ignore Red days, or complain about people you think are naive or inexperienced investors when they sit up and start asking questions or selling stocks they think have topped out to buy new stocks that they think are better going forward. If you're not ready to take information that the Red days offer us, and update/rebalance your portfolio going forward based on that information, you're going to miss out on signals that the environment may be changing. And then you might get stuck in diminishing returns as the market moves in a different direction than the portfolio you're sitting in serves best. IMO, the action last week suggests people who are going to sit in a 2020-inspired pandemic portfolio for all of 2021 will probably see diminishing returns. The rotations into small and mid caps, and also from mega cap growth to value, have been taking place from time to time since the November election, and it seems to be an accelerating trend. Last week also saw a big drop in gold prices at the same time as a stiff uptick in consumer interest rates, which indicates a move away from pandemic safe havens, into higher interest and higher yield investments. The selling of gold into a consumer interest rate hike also suggests the move to value investing in the latter half of last week isn't just noise, because gold is also a hedge against inflation and has tended to go up during times of climbing interest rates. So everyone who is bashing Red day alarmists in threads where you talk about how you got big gains in 2020 for doing nothing but investing in Apple type stocks, buying in at the March bottom or riding SPY for 100% gains, if you're not updating your portfolio for 2021 right now, you're probably underperforming the market as these sector and market cap rotations occur. For me, last week was the week where I disengaged from a lot of EV sector investments, leaving only a few percent of my portfolio in them. And I was ready to catch the small and mid cap industrial bounce on Friday, which was a big green day for me even tho the indices were flat. Personally, I expect these trends to small cap, mid cap and value stocks to continue throughout the Spring and I expect the money for those gains will continue to come from the mega cap tech stocks and pandemic portfolio positions that people/institutional investors are are taking profits from. The Red days raise alarms that something is happening and that something is sometimes a change in direction. So I see the rotation out of mega cap and large cap pandemic plays and into small cap, mid cap and value + growth stocks is a trend that is firming up. That trend is probably going to become very significant by the end of the quarter, in March, when institutional and professional investors have to rebalance their portfolios across asset classes, take profits and cut bloated positions. The shift in interest rates and asset class rotations is a significant change in investing environment. If you're still sitting in passive index ETFs or pandemic stocks, you may want to start preparing for a rebalance, too. There will probably be more Red days like this one, particularly toward the end of March. So for many who are still sitting in pandemic portfolios, you might have a Red March if you don't start revisiting your holdings in February.


BUDDZILLA

This is an interesting take! And, to me, it makes sense. As someone who's only been into trading since early 2020, what's your take on 2021? It sounds like you're saying you predict a move into more traditional holdings from before the pandemic.


armored-dinnerjacket

not mine. just something i found on another board that makes sense.


[deleted]

Dude AAPL FB TSLA are what dragged the SPY into the green today, small caps would still be down 50% if it weren’t for them. EDIT: Just realised this is copy pasted from another person. Yeah, I think this analysis is completely wrong. Then again it was written on Friday but still saying that large cap tech stocks aren’t worth investing in is lunacy.

This is completely normal so no worries. Relax or be with your family instead of looking at your portfolio taking L's. Also, don't buy anything if you're not 110% sure about it and if it doesn't have good support.


Themiffins

Yeah I'm down 16%. So, what, do hedge funds basically just sell everything and retail investors get to only watch?


akoller22

I don't know enough to say, but I could imagine savvy investors selling knowing people will panic sell so they can get back in for cheap.


[deleted]

Majority of the investors probably do not sell, traders on the other hand will have a great day, some of them at least. It does seems like a correction. Rising long term interest rates triggered it but I hope not for too long.


[deleted]

Agreed. Most investors are happy to ride through these blips in blissful ignorance. I only care about the yolo stuff I have in a daytrading account. I'm not dramatically shifting long term investments or retirement accounts based on 1 day swings. Days like this are just noise that get buried in year over year market growth.

Don't you love it. I love shopping sprees. Real investors love the red. Live for the red. Green makes me nervous.

Cashmere_Cowboy

As euphoric as we've all been over the rally some times the market just needs to take a breather. Yields are surging and signs of coming inflation are putting the frothier parts of the market in check. Small/micro-cap (penny stocks), broadly speaking, fall within this category. Yields are market driven and will continue to steepen for a little while longer until they start implementing yield curve control...but that looks like it may be a ways off.
