I bought some things too, but the problem is, we don't know how far it will drop. Sometimes you buy a stock and it goes a lot further down, then never comes back up again :/

used to make bets with individual stocks. rode a few into the ground. I'm more casual long--term and would be plowing money into favorite index funds regardless of market dips. Vanguard has lowest expense ratios. best for long game. check about once a year. less stress. gaining? good. vti has been good the last 10 years
