Yessir. Maybe time to ease back in and if it drops even more DCA back in. 
I always advocate for folks not to try to time it but ride it out. But if you are worried about something like what is going on it is nice to have a solid plan in place.
@Raiders22
You think ! S&P 500 down 4.8% just today. Dow down almost 4%; NASDAQ down almost 6%.
ETA: Recession here we come…….Ultimately he has a limited tolerance for seeing how poor the stock market is doing and eventually he will back down from the tariffs to avoid an economic depression……..But as I type this Trump is beating his chest!…And his hand picked men clapping.
country needs to start building more mental hospitals to put trump and all the brain less magas that followed this criminal con artist over the cliff.
Companies move their factors overseas for the biggest reason of getting cheap labor. Even if trumpy could wave a magic wand and have every company have their factories back here over night, That wouldnt lower the price of anything due are workers never gonna work for the wages that companies get people overseas to work for. So that means companies are gonna have to charge higher prices for their products to pay for the wages they pay American workers, if they can even get workers to fill their companies. Hell fast food restaurants have hard time getting people to work those jobs for 18 bucks an hour. Good luck trying to fill all those factory jobs. Once again basic common sense is not being used by trumpy and his ball licking advisors. Its funny, every economist interview i have watched, they have stated the same common sense things i just posted. They also added that getting all the factories back here would take decades. Our Country is addicted to cheap stuff and we are never gonna have cheap stuff made here, thats a fact. That republican piece of shit ronald reagan was the dumbass that created the whole mess of letting companies move overseas. Hd he stopped it back then, things probably would be different today, but the fact is the genie has been let out of the bottle and you can put it back in. The truth is consumers are no different then drug addicts. Drug addicts are addicted to drugs and consumers are addicted to cheap stuff.
In 60 days trumpy has been able to destroy the country having the strongest economy of all the other countries in the world. We have rebounded better then all these other countries and trumpy has taken a blow torch to it and he doesnt give a fuck. After this huge mess he created yesterday, where is he today? Hes playing golf in Flordia, which all of us dumb asses are paying for once again. This ass clown plays more golf then the golf pros play.
People especially the maga faithful havent figured out, that hes not doing this for the country. Hes doing this for his insane sick power hungry ego. He wants people and countries to come to florida and bend their knees to him. If the republicans in the house and senate had even a tiny piece of backbone and werent worried about getting voted out of office, because of trumpy threatening them, they could have stopped this fake bully and wanna be dictator in a heart beat and stopped trumpys plans in a heartbeat. But they wouldnt do it, cause every last one of them are nothing but pussies. They should go use their govt medical insurance to go get neutered cause there really is no use for them to have their testicles anymore.
People that want our country to look like what trumpy wants it to look like, are some very twisted people. Trumpy isnt a God, hes just 1 other person, a very awful inhumane person
In other news today, i watched fox news all day just to see how they would cover today. Sure enough they tried to gas light people into not worrying about the stock markets, 401k's, pensions, social security, prices of goods. Throw in all the stories they did about fentanyl and other drugs coming into the country, i truly dont know how any of the people on that station look themselves in the mirror everyday and dont know how they fall asleep. Every person on that network are just gas lighting trumpy flunkies.an_brick
@joe pockets
I think you are right. I hope not for everyone’s sakes. But hard to see otherwise. 
But I think Trump is not really that concerned about the market. I think he realizes there would be some overreaction from it while things take shape with the trade. Some are countering, some are canceling, and some are going to negotiate.
It will be interesting to see if Trump gets as much as he wants from most of them.
But the market never ever likes uncertainty.
I really think more of this is coming from Lutnick than people think. I get that a Trump has talked about this since the ‘80s, or whenever. But I think now he has someone in his ear that he feels is on the same page and that he trusts. 
Yes. They have literally been telling us what they are going to do since Bessent was appointed. The market was way behind expectations. Congrats on your positioning
@joe pockets
Go on cnbc. They are having a melt down. Jim Cramer was on this am crying about everyone's 401k. It is glorious. Meanwhile the market is basically flat to one year ago.
Mean while Trump calls out JPOW saying "its a good time to lower interest rates" 5 minutes before Powell is scheduled to start talking.
I mean, the circus is supposed to be entertaining
Is Trump this obtuse that he thinks a bully throw down will cave all the countries he feels is unfairly protecting their local businesses and industries? I think he is so accustomed to thinking he is the smartest person in his universe that he under estimates what others will do to his childish antics.
Yeah go tell Powell to cut rates, that will really force their hand.

Raiders, I think you're right... it wouldn't surprise me if Lutnick's head is on the chopping block as soon as this weekend. Trump needs an out, and has gotten some very bad policy advice on Tariffs, .... this cannot, ... and will not continue is my prediction.

It's not very often I agree with you ( insert huge amount of sarcasm), but the areas in bold are particularly accurate. To add on, Who in the hell in this country wants to manufacture tennis shoes, t- shirts, wicker baskets, and any other assortment of consumer goods I could find in my neighborhorly stores... good luck having a manufacturer do so profitably w American labor.
@Rush51
I do not know how much reading you like to do. Or if you are even interested.
But if you ever get time speed read his paper.
If you get a chance I would be interested I what you think. It actually have no issue with him and agree with a lot of what he proposes.
But he and Trump have been friends forever. Sometimes that might cloud a person’s assessment of the situation. Maybe Trump is solidly behind his ideas no matter what. He says he is.
The media and even the business shows are rarely interviewing anyone but complete doomsayers. There a couple of the known gurus that they let on, but the panel over talks them.
But it will be interesting to see how it transpires as the pressure mounts.
