market falling off the cliff again. pre mkt opens 5% down (Dow could cross into 17,000s Monday)

where is the bottom?

I haven't sold any investments in my 401K over the last few weeks. wonder if that was wise... just watching it sink.

you would lock in a tremendous loss. Just sit tight and they will recover most of their value. it might take a year or two.
