If you weren't selling you weren't making anything today anyway.
So I should subtract the 1/2 million in gain since the dip 2009 from my net worth?
I'll bet that's news to a lot of people tracking their money for retirement.
To each their own.
It was an oddity that I had not seen, generally the two flow the same direction and
reasonably close in amount.
I don't pay much attention to the Dow and little to the S&P, I just watch the Nasdaq to get an idea what my VTSAX is doing. Although as I get closer to retirement, I'm thinking diversifing some of the assets into an S&P fund would be reasonable.
