I invest my money into mutual funds/ETFs. I know that slow and steady wins the race and provides a level of security. I work really hard and long hours. I know that it's normal to have periods of growth and periods of decline and periods of stagnation but gosh every time that I get stuck in decline or stagnation I get frustrated. My net worth has stayed the same basically since September due to the volatility. I am still 70 K away from the last high that I reached in September or October I think? before all the volatility started. I know it will move again but just frustrated and can't wait for it to start growing again. Anyone with a lot of years in the market who has been through this before? 2022 was the last period like this but it was more of a decline than stagnation I think. I remember being equally as frustrated I wish I saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
