2. I'm mostly out too. I got mostly out in February knowing the tariff stuff was going to cause a pretty big drop.

It seems with Powell saying things are looking shaky, I don't want to be anywhere near the market right now. I'm just waiting for the rug pull any day now. It may rip a few more times until the recession data starts showing up and that will be it until it bottoms out and starts going back up at the end of the year anticipating the end of the recession. What's interesting is how gold is skyrocketing which makes me wonder if a lot of Governments and smart money see something really bad coming. I just don't know enough about any of this other than I am near retirement and dowt trust Trump and don't want to see half of my retirement up in smoke.
