Should you care about daily market actions? Investors are people and people are often impatient. No one likes to wait in line or wait longer than they have to for something, especially today when so much is just a click or two away.
This impatience also manifests itself in the financial markets. When stocks slip, for example, some investors grow uneasy. Their impulse is to sell, get out and get back in later. If they give in to that impulse, they may effectively pay a price.
