Stocks and Shares ISA has tanked! Here's what I'm doing
xCruzo Brief
A personal investing article describes heavy losses in a Stocks and Shares ISA as growth and AI/tech shares sold off aggressively. The author says Thursday, 5 November, was especially brutal, with some large holdings down sharply and even “boring” FTSE 100 names like HSBC and BAE Systems roughly 20% below their summer highs. The piece focuses on how the investor is processing the decline: treating volatility as normal for long-term positions held for three to five years, and using a Buffett-style reminder that stocks can fall 50% or more. The author also points to positives, including Diageo, whose shares were up 17% since early October.
