$S&P 500(.SPX)$ Navigating the Current Market Turbulence: A Few Thoughts

We're seeing significant market volatility driven by escalating tariff tensions. It's important to acknowledge that these "tit-for-tat" exchanges between governments could persist for a couple of months, creating ongoing uncertainty. However, it's also worth noting that President Trump, a seasoned businessman, often employs a strategy of starting from a maximal position before negotiating concessions. Remember his 2015 tweet: "If the Dow Jones ever falls more than 1000 'points' in a Single Day the sitting president should be 'loaded' into a very big cannon and Shot into the sun at TREMENDOUS 1 SPEED! No excuses!" While that was years ago, it hints at his sensitivity to market performance.

So, with the S&P 500 experiencing a sharp decline, losing roughly 6% from Thursday to Friday and hovering around 5,000, are you pondering your next move? Here are my 2 (or rather, 3) cents:

Resist Panic Selling: While the temptation is strong, remember that historically, key indices like the Dow Jones and the STI have demonstrated a consistent upward trend. Even with the sharp downturn during the COVID-19 pandemic, these indices have recovered and continued their long-term growth trajectory. In fact, despite the recent S&P drop of roughly 6% from Thursday to Friday, remember the S&P's impressive 25% growth in 2024. Short-term volatility, even a landslide event like the COVID drop, doesn't negate long-term potential. Looking back over the past decade, the trend is clear: markets generally rise. Stay focused on the long game.

"Buy the Dip"? It Depends: If you have spare capital and can stomach the volatility, consider it. Focus on fundamentally strong stocks you believe in – those whose products you'd continue to consume even during economic downturns.

Index Investing's Stability: Indexes like the S&P 500 remain a solid option. I personally prefer regular monthly contributions, regardless of market fluctuations. It's a stress-free approach to long-term growth.

Fed Keeps Unchanged: Are 3 Rate Cut Estimates Too Optimistic?
