HOLY COW, said tongue in cheek. It is kind of funny and we all expected it but I have to laugh at the talking heads on the boob tube trying to explain away the reason for reversion to the mean.

Maybe. Maybe not.I expect it will continue on Monday.
I'm getting close to being able to retire early. I would love to get the crash over with while I'm still employed and stash some more money at lower prices.
Plan has been to ESR at 45. I turn 42 this year. Taxable brokerage account dividend and interest income is $28k (AA 50/50 fixed income and stocks), living expenses $30k, w-2 income $70k, years in pension 17. Should be ready by 45 to ESR for 15 years and then ER. At 60 can collect pension (20 years vested) plus 401k/Roth IRA.
Bring on the crash.
It's a bit weird really, but this is kinda fun. I'm sure others here will understand.
So, you have a plan that tells you when the crash is over?
Here's the thing about down markets: It is hard to tell when the big down is over, just like it is hard (except when looking back in time) to tell where the peak is.
I bought 25 shares of HDV today near the bottom, 90.25. I stopped buying for a few months due to other expenses, other than reinvesting dividends.
I am still trying to increase my dividend stream.
Darn! Another down day in the stock market! Why didn’t I buy Bitcoin a month ago like the smart money did?
