Dealing with Losses in the Stock Market

Hi All Mooers, Here are some food for thoughts. In our investment journey, there are bound to be Ups (Gains) and Downs (Losses). So as we celebrate our Ups, we have to think of how to make the Downs eventually into Up situations.
Fundamentally, its managing our perception of matters, so as to control our emotions to not make rash decisions that we will regret.
Taking on a long term investment mindset naturally takes away the emotional aspects of the daily fluctuation. So even if the stock plunged after buying, it will still be fine. In fact, capitalise on the dip to buy more shares to accumulate for a higher dividend returns. Concurrently, performing DCA.
So far, I have not sell any shares in Red. Because if you trust and have confidence that the stocks that you have invested in are from good companies having good business potentials, it would only be time that their stock prices be restored. Just like the present moment after the pandemic, we see the stock market returning back to pre-Covid state. So just sit tight, chill, hold on to the stocks, wait to ride out of the storm, along the way collecting dividends.
I believe HOLDING POWER IS EVERYTHING! Happy Investing. Cheers.
