Poll: With the latest market slide, what changes are you making to your portfolio?
By Jeremy Vohwinkle with 11 Comments
There is more than enough hype surrounding the market lately, so why not see what the readers here think. Since the market has had a rough couple weeks, what changes are you making, if any? Personally, I already have a diversified portfolio that I’m comfortable with, so I’m not really making any changes.
A good mix of stocks and bonds for me means I may not see the highest of the highs, but I also won’t see the lowest of the lows. I’m satisfied with taking some of the volatility out while I continue to invest the same amount regularly. Aside from a few individual stock holding changes, why get bent out of shape when the market gives back some of the gains that it has been so generous with over the past few years?
That’s just me, but I’m curious to see what others are doing in response.
