A loss still a loss, what different between paper loss and realised loss is:
Realised loss - that is, just like putting the money on the table then being 'sapu', game over for this round.
Paper loss - still a loss, but you are still 'in the game', final outcome not yet known, can be better and can be worst.
In stock investment, there is impossible to not have any paper loss especially on the initial stage of investment or just after market peak down. <-- which current condition.
What matter most is how you pick a stock and whether the company can still generate enough wealth to the shareholders.
That's why it is important that those money being invested in stock market one, one should sure those are extra and won't be needed for long period of time, at least 3-5 years above.
