    I am not selling anything, I am riding out this whole thing. I sold stuff during the covid crash that I regret as it all came roaring back in less than a year, no idea how long this selloff will last, but I think long term holding on most things will still be ok.

    but i will be riding out the Long position (currently down 33% at 10/15k ) in my retirement. After using FVRR for artwork on some projects I put up for sale on amazon. I can see that there is a ton of opportunity and significant amount of utility in FVRR. I'm not scared to see what it will reap in the future.

    lol I'm taking a savage beating in my retirement accounts on FVRR now (not that savage, but running a 5k loss). I do have FVRR holdings still in the black on my taxable (exact opposite way I'd prefer it).

    I shifted my gambling towards Etherum and BTC. Managed to snag a coin of ETH back in the $2400 range. kinda DCA'ing over here. Sold most of my FVRR winnings @ a profit, time to jump on the next speculative bandwagon (****only out of my disposable gambling income. Don't worry my true retirement & savings goals are tucked in Super-Not Sexy index funds)

    I haven't checked my holdings yet, but i did get a notification text saying that my weeks-old cheapskate order for a few shares of AMD went through this morning in the sudden downward blip. I'll take a look at my FVRR, and if I can scoop up a few more discounted shares, I may.

    ETA: I don't think I'll necessarily buy this second, I'm not itching for more.... But I think I'll at least put in some more "bad day" and "really bad day" trades for FVRR, just in case the selloff continues & I can snag a deal.

    Is everyone still holding? I was up 79% in February before the first correction, now, I am barely maintaining 10%. My stocks have dropped close to a 100k now. Too many growth stocks and IT companies, so it's going to be a long wait to recovery I think. I am shocked at this selloff, it almost seems worse than the covid selloff. Inflation up, so what, interest rates up, so what, but investors are pulling money left and right, man.... This stinks..

    I had bought a few more Fivver shares on the way down, but it is still dropping, my average cost now is around 127, and the price is at 150 now. Ouch. Just 3 months ago it was over 300, it's dropped half... Ugh.... EDIT: LOL that 150 didn't last long and it popped back to 170+ in an hour. Power move! I contemplated too long to buy more at 150 thinking the market was going to continue its slide today.

    Who knows? I hope so

    I certainly hope so. I'm holding on.

    I'm not buying but seeing the tremendous decline in the price certainly is upsetting. Would, coulda, shoulda sold at $330.

    Picked up an extra bit of FVRR when it briefly dipped to $190/sh. It's what I love about limit orders -- I put it in back on 5 March, and even though it dipped for just a minute, I was still able to pick up the extra FVRR at the discount price. Just a matter of being patient. I only wish that I had more 'dry powder' cash on hand that I'm ready to invest. As is, I'm only going for a small handful of shares each time I set a new order. But oh well... Slow & steady...

I have more than 10 Semicon companies right now, most short term holds until the world is caught up on chips and then I will consider which ones to keep and which ones to sell.
    It's been so long I think I looked at 3 lots at like averaging $8, $10, $12 bought back in 2008-2011 I don't want to have a super large amd and intc position. So I just swapped them out. I think the leadership is better at AMD right now and i'm happy to just be in the semi market but not necessarily INTC right now.
