d) stop all investments entirely
e) rethink the whole investment plan
f) go to a new person for investment advice
I'd say g) It depends. I might buy more. I might throw in the towel and take the loss. I might do nothing and let it ride if I think the investment still has good prospects. I wouldn't do d, e or f. This would be evaluated on a case by case basis.
