It's inconceivable to me that your investments aren't down this year.

Check the post date before you reply, OK? The stock market is extremely volatile because of Trump's frequent attempts to impose crazy tariffs, and the fact that he's eventually going to cave on some major ones. The stock markets regained all of today's losses, for example. Timing really matters these days if you want to play the market under Trump.

Wow, scary.

What’s the 1 yr return been (to date) for all three major indices?

Trump economy.

How old are you? I’m 35 and just not checking my investment accounts. They are long term vehicles and if we don’t survive trump and the market doesn’t cycle back long term, I’ve got bigger problems.

Is the stock market down that much?

What is the point of following the stock market? The worst investors are the ones who pay attention to this stuff on a daily basis.

Year to date DJIA is up 1.51%

It's only a loss if you sell low, buy high. Which for some unfathomable reason, many people still do, despite being told repeatedly not to!

You need nerves of steel, OP.

Everything's on sale!

I'm not even checking my account. Blissful ignorance.

I am starting to get afraid that the damage is already so far done to the US' reputation that the market may not recover in 4 years.

OP, are you invested in index funds or individual stocks as part of your 401k portfolio?

Stop looking, ignore, and keep moving forward.

This I'm not even looking but I'm still pissed and scared.

It’s only a loss if you sell.
