I'm holding, not taking a 30% loss on principal in my Roth IRA. The underlying assets and revenue stream from CVS, WAG, FDX, etc. haven't changed. The dividend payout will probably take a hit but at least I'll collect part of what used to be 8%. Meanwhile I'll keep putting those payments into other stocks, as before. Technically speaking, I have 32 years left on my investment timeframe before I can remove my principal anyway.
