As a recent investor (started October-November), I'll take this period as an incredible learning opportunity and a fantastic experience. I feel like I know more about how the market works every day, and I'm enjoying the ride. That being said, I'm still in the green, and I can't image how some who is 40-50% down must feel.
Keep up the good work!
