S&P down 4%. Just adjusting for yesterday’s over correction? CPI figures? Trump raise tariffs on China to 350%?

The markets don't like uncertainty. When the markets were crashing day over day, it was because every day brought more uncertainty. Markets shot up yesterday because there was a temporary reprieve in the uncertainty, so while not fully recovering, recovered a bit.

Today, while dealing with less uncertainty, the market is continuing to absorb the new status quo, which as you mentioned, is massive tariffs on China. Some of the largest US companies have massive exposure to harm from tariffs on China, particularly the top 4: Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Amazon. Not surprising that an ongoing trade war between the world's two largest economies is going to apply downward pressure on the market.

The market loves political stability and no drama. There will be neither while Trump is President.

If you are a large investor or institutional investor you putting big chunks in the market after the last 90 days?

There are other, less risky ways to make money.

As long as any part of a trade war is going on I wouldn't expect any long term upward trends.

Going to be very bumpy until all trade wars and tariffs are completely behind us. Just too much uncertainty, something the market despises.

My favorite line about it, and I don't know who said it, is:

"The stock market is irrational in the short term, and rational in the long term."

Warren Buffet said the same thing a little differently:

"In the short term the market is a popularity contest; in the long term it is a weighing machine."

I like the first one better.

You say this, but if I hadn’t I would be down 35% as opposed to down 12% YTD.

I think I’ll chill for a while in cash

I’d give anything to go back 2 weeks ago and sold everything. Once again persuaded by my financial advisor to stay in even though my gut was telling me to get out. Now, between stocks and bonds crashing I’m down 1mm in a matter of weeks. It’s going to take a while to recover from this one. I’d rather be on the side lines with everything I had finally recouped from 2022. Now, I’m stuck hoping it wont take 5 years to get back to where I was 2 weeks ago.
