If you're caught in an undertow, go with it. You'll be free of it when it dissipates, usually before you run out of oxygen.

BALANCING YOUR PORTFOLIO
The amount of your portfolio that should be invested in stocks depends on your age. As you get older, less of your savings should be in the stock market. The conservative rule is to find the right percentage is to subtract your age from 100. A slightly more aggressive approach is to subtract your age from 120.
