The people in the article are down, and I'd personally rather be up than down...

VTSAX is down for the year too. So you'd still be down.

Right, so the real sin was not being in the market 10 years ago, at the start of the greatest bull run in history. Not groundbreaking.

Didn't say it was groundbreaking, just said it's better to be slow and steady than focus on one year's worth of gains/losses. Short term wins is how gamblers think, long term gains is how investors think.
Which one are you?
