Key insights
- The post reflects investor anxiety as unrealized gains diminish, driven by geopolitical tensions (Iran) and concerns about the AI sector's profitability (Disney/OpenAI deal, AI company debt). This sentiment could contribute to increased market volatility and a potential pullback in AI-related stocks, impacting broader market confidence.

Just sitting here watching my investments from the last year drop ever closer to their respective cost basis amounts, and wondering: how close (or beyond) CB can you stomach? Is it an amount, a percentage, etc.?
It is certainly hard to want to stay the course when all my losses up to this point have just been unrealized gains, but between Iran and the faltering issues with the AI bubble (see Disney pulling out of $1B deal with OpenAI or how AI companies are starting to borrow money due to lack of profits so far) it's not hard to imagine it'll take much for it to start eating into my "real" money.
