It's been a year with my mutual fund.
Pic related is its performance.
What do I do?
My money is stagnant. May as well have left it in my checking account. In fact, if I pull it, I have to pay taxes on it as income.
The whole reason I put my cash in this was for steady, low, no worries income. I have lost money, essentially.
>if I pull it, I have to pay taxes on it as income.
I don't think you know how taxes work.

Interesting it looks like your mutual fund tanked right around the time ETH exploded. Coincidence?
>.7 expense ratio
Also you write it as loss
Just hold you faggot

Mutual funds are meant to be held for the long run OP.

Yeah.. He'd actually get to claim it against his taxable income as a loss
more like capital depreciation fund
that's what you get for buying trash
Looks like some delicious capital losses to harvest.

Tax loss harvesting is the practice of selling a security that has experienced a loss. By realizing, or "harvesting" a loss, investors are able to offset taxes on both gains and income. The sold security is replaced by a similar one, maintaining the optimal asset allocation and expected returns.

Which are limited to $3,000 per year until the loss is used up.
You lost $3,000 actual dollars. And the taxes it saves you is only the equivalent of your effective tax rate. Even if you're in the 25% tax bracket, you lost $3,000 to save $750 on your tax return (if you generated a tax liability).
But >>1138690 is right. Mutual funds are meant to be held for the long run.
