Investing in todays Economy

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this. I currently invest monthly into an IRA and with the economy the way it is, the value has been dropping. Should I maybe postpone this for the time being or keep investing and possibly lose what I'm currently investing? I invest with TRowe Price.

This isn't an investment advice forum, but frankly there's no reason to STOP investing in your 401K just because the stuff you contributed last year is worth less. Buy low, sell high remember?

You almost certainly want to make whatever contribution is necessary to get the maximum allowable match by your employer if they offer one.
