Was hiking the Enchanted Circle in New Mexico with no Internet. I wouldn't have sold anyway, tbh. I buy and forget it forever usually.

I mean where else you going to put the money? Stocks go down then stocks go up. You don't just massively sell and pay insane amount of tax just because orange man. I'm also down like 22% since Jan.

Some stocks take 5plus years to recover from a 50% loss &some don’t recover at all. Do you know the long term effects of tariffs on the companies that you’re holding? Nope.
