Of course, just my luck, the morning after I finally bit the bullet and bought some tech stocks some lame thing happens with European debt and all U.S. tech stocks take a plunge.
But maybe it wasn't luck at all. If anything, this reminds me that I have to broaden my research and really start reading and keeping up. On the bright side, I only put aside negligible amounts to "learn" so this will be good practice for the long run.
Investing is so nerve-wracking -- I really see no difference with gambling. Sure, picking a stock or a fund can be a little more than an educated guess, but when you're in front of the computer ready to click on "buy", it feels just as risky as putting chips down on the roulette table. Screw aggressive growth, I am finding me some fixed income bonds for the rest of my allocations. >.<
