I’m raising to 111 on each step down, maybe raising more. I still have 130k USD + 65k EUR on IB to invest
But it fucking hurts 
And I quit my job, perfect timing!

I’d set 60…

Sometimes I press “reply” and my message stays grey for a while until I give up. Is there an antivirus? I promise I’m not sick and it’s already almost a week that I"m back from ticino 
(2nd try)
That’s indeed bad (bat?) lack but you gonna be fine. You have tons of money and invaluable work experience. Take it easy! Think about all those poor souls who retire without this flexibility at age 65.

In the words of Fast and Furious,
@MrRIP, just increase the step size, only even numbers (odds are bad

Called my hotel in Austria, they have a guest with symptoms, waiting for the diagnosis. They agreed to cancel without costs…
If you mean Real Estate that you own: not at all 
. Or do you mean shares of RE companies, or ETFs?
Real Estate that I own/that I’m about to close on in April.
We’ll see how that works out, maybe it would’ve been better to dump that money into the market.
Forget about travelling till this is over. I cancelled everything what I planned for vacations this year.
I also have a trip coming up in April (everything booked) and one planned for May (nothing booked).
I won’t book the second trip.
How did you go about getting a refund? Any problems doing so?
I am curious if someone bought JETS [quote=“glina, post:407, topic:3304”]
If I were to build a position in JETS I would probably start right now and average down later if situation gets worse. It is cheap. Waiting for something dirt cheap to get even cheaper may be called greed.

Can we drop below 40$? 
I work for a major bank in Switzerland and it looks like they are preparing for a worst case scenario where we have to close all branches for a couple of weeks. This will affect 20k employees.
Holy…if they really close all borders next Monday and things like this happen, SMI will drop to 4000.

-15k? I forgot how to count that low.
I’m at -103k EUR of unrealized P&L.
I think my total realized P&L + dividends since I stated investing are in the range of 150k
Essentially, 2/3 of last 4 years have vanished in 3 weeks.

That’s why I keep saying: you should critically think and decide about investing more than half your portfolio into one single country market, the U.S…
Sure, you would have fared extremely well over the last 10-20 years… but there’s no guarantee that U.S. outperformance will continue forever. Nor that the U.S. is going to at least perform in line with other markets.
Are we sure it won’t reverse at some point, with the U.S. then lagging behind other markets in the future?
If you can answer that question for yourself („Yes, I believe U.S. will always dominate forever“), then go ahead.
