I’ve finally reached the point where if our retirement savings goes any lower, I will not sleep well at night. The panic has set in and I’m selling.

Will you tell us when you think the market has reached bottom, when that time comes? Then we’ll buy back in. :-)

Why in the world would you sell now and buy back if they recovery? That is a very dumb move.

You only lose money if you sell.

Used to be the rule of thumb was to put the $$$ in the bank and not to "Invest" anything in the market you couldn't afford to lose
