Remember Amazon ...Great companies have big bumps in both directions before taking off.
For example, Amazon ...
Oct.98 $15.00
May99 $80.00
Dec.00 $23.00
Dec.01 $10.00
Fluctuated between $20 to $50 to 2006
All ducks are lined up in 2007 (minus the 2008 crash), reaches +$130 before 2010.
Steady increase to $1900 in mid 2018. Imagine bailing with your 1000 shares when it reached $50. Bailed $50,000 in 2006. If they were strong enough to hold, 12 years later they would have $1.9 million.
Amazon had huge dillution and bigs losses on their journey.
Shorts made a killing with Amazon but lost everything after 2007/8.
The longs have been living the dream for well over a decade. They deserve it for being smart and forward thinking.
The ups and downs of the market are a natural occurance.
I am not worried. Invested early so these dips are annoying but natural and I am well into the green.
For those who came in later, it feels like a bomb has dropped. Be strong and long, look to the near future and they will see the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
ACB, WEED, APH and a few others will makes you rich, if you have the patience and strength.
