I didnt have much to begin with only lost about 12k, I have nothing anyway. My mother lost roughly 100k in her retirement fund from all this crashing. My grandmother even more. How much have you lost in Trump's Tantrum Tariffs game?

Look up the stock market around March 2020. Huge dip then rebound to pretty much the same trajectory. As long as you left your stuff to sit, you're still doing fine. There's no reason to think the massive rebound would have still occurred without the dip.

I fortuitously moved all my VTI into VTV a couple weeks ago to divest myself of TSLA, and over the past two days have been actively keeping the balance of my 60/40 equities/bonds portfolio by selling a little bit of BND and BNDX to get some more VTV as it sunk. Didn't need to modify the VXUS portion.

Sure was nice to have those bond portions to assuage the decline.
