How did your investments/retirement do in Q2?

[Deleted]

I got my retirement statement today and I lost all but $600 of what was put into my account last quarter. I thought the market was doing better? I don't know much about these things. I have my retirement company handling my investments so IDK if I need to make a change or what. I know it varies constantly but I was looking forward to seeing a higher balance today when I logged in :-(

I was down 1.03% for Q2.

ETA: After being up 11.79% Q1.

May was really, really rough. June was better, but it doesn't surprise me that overall your quarter wasn't as solid as you hoped.

I don't have my figures in front of me, but for the 2nd quarter the S&P was down -3.3% and the Dow was down -2.5%.

We were up across the board but it was probably one of our most difficult quarters ever.

I'm kind of afraid to look. Last time I checked, I wasn't doing well...

2nd quarter was down 7%. Oh, well, I'm up for the year so I'm still happy.

really well but mostly because DH's company stock has gone up 33% in the last month or so
