Should I continue to invest in Syfe ARI Portfolio even though it is losing money?

I’m a beginner in investing (low risk appetite).. Currently invested $1K in ETFs (2 months into the funds).. I was planning to input min. $100 every month for the next 3-5 years. But looking at the fund’s performance currently, it is making me think twice if I should continue to invest or stop this portfolio.. Any advice fellow Seedly community. Thank you!

Hello there, the Syfe ARI portfolio is designed to be a "set-and-forget" portfolio consisting of a diversified mix of equities, bonds and gold. The idea is to invest in it regularly and stay the course for the long term, which as fellow community members have mentioned, is 5 or more years.

Short-term fluctuations are part and parcel of investing, but over the long term, the stock market trends upwards. If your investment horizon is relatively long, do continue to stay invested.
