>>60138023Bro what
>>60138023Unless you plan on retiring today it doesn't fucking matter, your 401k will dip and pump with the market but increase overall.
>>60138023Hold you limp wristed faggot. Can you even into grip strength? This is also your time to dump you savings into the market. Retirement boomers are getting their holes blown out. You should be buying hand over first right now.
>>60138086If the tariffs are permanent, then the reduction in the production potential of the US economy will also be permanent
I just sold my VTSAX and I'll keep it in a money market until trump either backpedals like the cowardly faggot he is, or we drop back to pandemic levels. Either way, cash is king in recessions
>>60138023sorry buddy you invested in the american market right at the top. you are basically buy high. you won't make your money back for another 10 years, and by then inflation will have desttroyed your entire portfolio. NGMI buy monero
>>60138086Part of me was thinking about buying more Monday if it keeps dropping. Is this all just one big temporary price cut?
>>60138244>catching a falling knifeDon't do it anon. Wait.
I did the same, put in 60k€ in S&P500 and I am down -15% on monday probably. Already thinking about selling whole shit and take the hit or should I hold.
>>60138256be happy you didn't buy the QQQs in 2000 and welcome to the market fren
>>60138210Is this the way? To sell at a loss and hold cash?
>>60138234I had money in S&P500 before pandemic. I didn't sell when pandemic hit and just held on. Then the market bounced back and more.
It all really depends on if Trump is going to backtrack or not. If not, Japan's lost decade would look optimistic in comparison. You'd have to look at China's century of humiliation for reference.
>>60138250Fucking this. Its not going to crash forever, but the clowns are still actively fucking things and who knows when the adults are going to get the wheel back.
>>60138289Technically, I didn't sell at a loss, but rather a 10%+ gain. Either way, I'm not going to have this bullshit mess with my retirement.
>>60138023Unless it becomes the biggest crash ever, it should eventually recover
>>60138488we're going to war in the next decade. Wartime economy will make us all rich-aru supposing we slay the chinks or slav or spics or whoever we're up against
>>60138548>we're going to war in the next decade. Wartime economy will make us all rich-aru supposing we slay the chinks or slav or spics or whoever we're up againstWhy are Americans so aggressive? They don't put coke in coca-cola anymore, so what gives?
>>60138548>we're going to war in the next decadeAgainst whom? You literally can't war China or Russia because of the risk of nuclear war. You can't go to war with Iran, because its a terrible terrain and again, Chinese and Russians will pump them so full of arms it will be GWOT on steroids and you will lose again. Instead, you've decided to hand the global lead to those two countries so you can turtle in North America, and for a time, it might even turn out somewhat OK. Inevitably though, your two adversaries will start circling your turtle land and influencing shit, strangling your trade and economy and fucking it up from the inside. Eventually, you will start fighting each other and the American interior will turn into nightmare warlord controlled failed states. The coastal areas will have a semblance of order guaranteed by Russian or Chinese peacekeepers. People have been calling it for 20 years now and isolationism inevitably leads here.In conflict of any kind giving up the initiative is the worst mistake you can make and Trump just did that.
>>60138685Canada probably. We're going to have a winter war, retard edition.
>>60138023>S&P 500>gains 1% per week>drops 10% in 2 days and keeps goingidk you do the math how long it would take to """bounce"""
>60138194>id literaly jude>hates the idea that America has manufacturing capacity The memes make themselves
>>60138023wait for the bounce and get out?
>>60138023>Am I retarded?Yes, but you're doing the correct thing. you're not supposed to sell, you're supposed to buy more and dca. once this dump is over we'll be violently ripping back to ATH. The money that was invested in the SP500 still exists, it's just sitting in treasuries and gold and what not. Once people see it's safe to buy back in it will climb back again.
>>60138194>permanentI give the tariffs 4 years at most, but that is a very long time.
>>60138694Canada, Panama, and Greenland are all on the table so we can control more of the global shipping market in the newly melted arctic circle. Maybe toss Mexico and Central America in there because why not manifest destiny all over North America?
>>60138023fucking newfag. you can't even access IRA money until you're like 60 without paying some massive jewish penalty. keep buying.
