US Stock Market

Wrong time for me to retire. Markets are down and good time to add more stocks. May be I should r2a and look for a job for another 4 years!

I am sure you are joking, markets will experience plunges like this several times during our retirement.
In a way this is a good stress test to face it early during our early retirement.

How is everyone doing? I guess nobody expected this.

China, Japan and HK markets were down 10%+ overnight and so there might be another bloodbath in the US today.

Overall markets have gone back to Dec 2021 levels that was spurred by Biden's first year Covid/stimulus spending. Hopefully, we don't go back to pre-covid levels this week.

Even rebalancing might not be effective since it takes a couple of days for the transactions to be completed and by that time who knows where the markets would be, all based on Trump tweets.
