    At the moment, I have it as a Correction for the broad market of Equities.

    Some individual stocks are down quite a bit from recent highs and might be in (or close to) a Crash situation.

    not to make this a D&D topic but a potential boycott of American goods/services could add to it also.

    last week i allocated my entire 401k to MM fund. way too much uncertainty currently. Will see how the next 1-2 months play out.
    my fun stock accounts however are taking a beating along with my risky picks taking a huge loss.

    I should have been more cash heavy like I accidentally was in march 2020.
    Feels like I am missing out on good dip buys...

    Is tonight where Trump starts ushering out his political opponents to be shot on the side of the building? Should be good for markets.

    High inflation, high unemployment, no regulatory agencies to protect you as Trump eliminated them, deficits exploding with a 5 trillion dollar tax cut, interest rates going up, consumer spending down, tariffs making construction materials crazy expensive leading to high housing cost.

    So much winning

    I have 40% of my 401k sidelined right now. Still contributing the same but don't want the whole dick exposed while Trump sells off America to create 16 jobs at a Honda factory.
