Noob here... have been doing a little research. Looks like people that know way more than I do predict a target anywhere from $8-$10.20 for SEEL. SEEL hovering around $1.20. Good time to get in and hold?
 
Watching CDEV on days like this is dizzying.....$13K swings in hours on my sheet.

Anyone moving investments out of stocks? I have been thinking about moving most of my 401k out of stocks. I just don't feel good about this year. This Russia mess appears to keep getting worse too. Interest rate hikes coming....

The dow is down something like 1% over the last 6 mo. Its just trading sideways.

Ill keep buying so I buy the dip but thinking its time to protect the gains I have made. Am I panicking prematurely?

I don't think you're premature. I'm down 20-40% on my last 5 buys.....wish I would have just sat on the cash.

How close are you to retiring and needing that 401K?
 
It's a good time to sit with what you have and try and let this market correct. Small caps are getting murdered and every time something starts to trend up it hits a wall. Good luck to everyone out there! My hunting has been shrunk in the past few months because of this market.

how low do you think it will correct? 15-20%?
 
Tough call but take this advice at the level you paid for it.

With 20 years left, I would ride it out. We all know that this is going to turn at some point but its not a guarantee. With 20 years left you could make it up if it did take a hit. Time in the market beats timing the market every time. I tried to time the housing market and am paying for it.

Look back to the start of this thread and how many people said to "hold you cash" or "this is going to crash" and here we are 2 years later and it hasnt happened.

Im not a doom and gloomer expecting a hard crash. Just feel like we are in for a rough year and wondering about putting some aside. Planning to up my contribution by 50% next month so hopefully I get a good buy in on the dip if it happens. You are right though, very unlikely to time the market.

I wouldnt say it would be a dumb idea to put any new contributions in lower risk stocks/funds or even taking some of your profits and moving them to safer bets. I would not pull them and just let them sit though.

You have time, let it ride and start worrying about timing after your 55. I am far from an expert and am 15 years younger than you are so take it for what its worth. I have definitely started to be more conservative with what I am buying and have been for the last 6 months.

It just makes me chuckle to listen to people. Even if the stock market took a 50% hit today, I would still be ahead of where I was in 2019/2020. Same with housing. I listen to people say that housing is going to crash like it did in 08. Where I live if housing took the same hit that it did in 08 today, it would be 5% higher than it was in 2019. The same people saying it today were saying it in 2019. I made the mistake of listening in 2019.
