Slumping stock market will encourage those investors to wait til it sinks, people panic and sell off and go to cash....too late. Buffett went to cash months ago. Greedy wall street pukes are waiting to capitalize on the drop, hold your gold and silver, buy if you can and wait. Just like your portfolio if you don't sell, you don't loose.
I feel for those that were getting ready for retirement...I saw it happen the last time prior to Covid, friends that were greedy and in short term high gains lost a third of their portfolio in the blink of an eye. However those with time on their hands and hung in there, got everything back they lost in maybe six years or more, they still lost any headway but breaking even is for the patient.
