to me crash or no crash, is still no difference. if crash, my shareholdings(but value may drop) increase due to effect of using dividends to buy more shares at depressed prices. if no crash, is still biz as usual, albeit shareholdings increase(value up) again due to effect of compoundation.
this to me, is a less stress way instead of watching market ups and downs. and over time(ie 5-10years or more), my portfolio will inevitably grow via shareholding increase and value per share going up.
have passed through a couple of crises this way.
sort of auto run portfolio-enjoy life.

i have been watching the market everyday but just watch only almost all the times. Same action may not mean same reaction to each of us. i don't watch only maybe when i am on holiday.
Just like i am here watching and "listening".
WB:-
1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.
Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.
NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.
