This is the time when you go back and review the longer term charts -- and to really understand what I've been saying about buying the best stuff and understanding the businesses you've bought.
Yep,

I think everything I have is red except for 1 name I own in the financials sector...

it feels bad man, haha

But I am pretty confident in the stuff I bought, just everything seems to be dropping, I keep trying to channel my inner GregWeld and say "look at the 5 year chart, look at the dividends" haha
