The big boys will cause this "crisis" so that folks like us will panic and sell, and they can buy low and pad their accounts even more.

You probably know this, but I learned it when the stock market tanked, and the employer I had bought mega stock for each of our 401k's. When I left the company I had a very hefty nest egg, due primarily to this kindness to his staff.

Amen, I wish I could right now, the whole friggin world is on sale today.

They say never try to time the market and I don't. Unfortunately I have some estate things on the move last week and this. My usual response is to treat it like a bear in the woods (< pun intended), be still, be quiet, and it will go away.

There was one position that was set to go today and I was able to stop it, whew!

Buckle up folks.

Good luck to everyone—we're gonna need it.

If you don't need the money to live on right this minute, the downslide really isn't affecting your 401k or the stock in it. The market slide (caused this time primarily by China) will stop, and stocks will begin to rise once again.

As I mentioned before, the people selling now are the everyday investors, and the rich will buy and get richer. Putting your money in a mutual bond sounds safe, but you will be selling at current prices (low), and then moving back to stocks when the prices go up....effectively losing money!

Good luck!

Be it smart or stupid or somewhere in between, I only check my 401k once a quarter.

I've got enough stress in my life as it is.

Right now, I'm practicing couch potato-dome.

Most people don't obsess about their 401k's...once a quarter is good for rebalancing, or noticing if a stock is/isn't performing well and making changes.
