I started investing just before the drop. And suffered big time in Lunkin already. Still I went more chips in, with Pharma and Tech stocks, recovered the losses Somehow I don’t trust the market as economy situation because of COVID is bad, and sooner than later it will drag the market down. What is my best option? Diversify into some recession proof options or just sell all and sit back? Looking at my 401k already discourages me from investing further.

ive been thinking about this basically since i started, but what do you guys consider a good watch list size. Whats too little or whats overwhelming and too much? i have kept mine anywhere from 10-20 and fine tuned more active ones from there
