    This market is too difficult for me. Maybe time to dump non-performers, put half in cash, the other half adding to AMZN, NVDA, IBM, maybe AAPL and GE, and leave at least until fall. I'd be more effective clearing bushes and trees, clutters, fire-hardening the house to get ready for this summer's wild fire risks...

    Been trading for 15+  years.  Your proposal is very similar to my plan.  I have about 15% of my cash invested right now.  I hate non-trending, choppy markets.  That's where the vast majority of losses occur.  If I didn't have a lot of time on my hands for research and managing positions, I'd either be all cash or putting a modest % in some value stocks and check on them occasionally.
