This is a function of irrational investment decisions based on emotion. Some basics to consider at times like these: Are fundamentals strong? What is the outlook for corporate earnings? How is the economy behaving? Where are interest rates? It may well be that a look at your portfolio could show that your asset allocation has gotten out of whack.
