Are you guys gonna sell your stocks?

stock prices are down..what are you guys going to wait for a couple of days for the stock to go back up or r u guys gonna sell and take the losses?

some stocks tht im looking at are ftek, chd, ko, mer, ge, pbr, sina, ttm, tm, wfr, yge

I realized today that I should have sold, but it's too late now. I own good companies so I know they're going to go back up, I'll just wait it out.

Unless you see something negative that is happening with the company don't sell.

I'm holding... this will all pass because the market moves through cycles. I started to take my accounts flat before the housing crisis hit, so now I'm going to wait things out for a while.

If the Democrats get into office... I WILL take my accounts flat and go to cash.

I'd be a buyer.

I sell when I am ready to take profit. Don't let a few corrections scare you.

BUY BUY BUY!!! a few of those, MER and GE are simply discounted. (I haven't looked the others up, those are just ones that I have) Market corrections are the best time to buy as long as the stock is not coming off of a bubble (CFC) where it was only ever up for the bubble but has traded flat the rest of the time.

sell and buy some real estate while it's cheap!
One reason, real estate is more secure investment and has a lot of potential. If you have a house you can ask a bank to lend you on it, try doing that with stocks!, banks are not fools!

Perhaps some of the bad ones I have, but I'm in it for the long haul. History shows that the market performs will over the long run. This is just part of the cycle of investing into stocks. It's like a roller coaster ride, it will go up and down and around.
