Obviously I've seen this before but I've not b been so invested (lol). So the amounts hurt a tad more than before.
In hindsight (I know) it would have been better to have put everything into a cash isa. I'm down on the year.
All that time researching stocks. It's a waste of time. Would have been better to hold cash and wait for a crash. Then pile in. It's actually what I used to do when I only had a few K after buying the house. After covid first hit I bought all I could.
Obviously this is hindsight and overall it's better to keep investing.
But this has been a painful lesson in single stock investing. Especially tech. Which I'm guessing many many people are also in. Especially PIs.

Can't believe aviva is probably one of my better shares this year.
