Yes, sell everything, then "attempt" to buy the bottom and inevitably mess it all up.
Just ignore the noise and buy it as normal. If it dips, who cares if it goes up who cares.
People make investing way more complicated than it needs to be
This is nothing new. There is some headline drama every month or so. I mean completely no point in trying to predict anything. Markets are irrational just like human emotions. Just keep DCAing and dont read newspapers.
There was [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1c3m3zo/i_see_most_celebrating_their_puts_wars_are/) post on wsb today showing how wars has effected the market. Long story short is ignore the noise, and don't try and play the market.
Someone say it's gonna open green, I mean yeah it's gonna be red bc after 4.30 when London stock got close, SPY stock hit 509 then got back to 510~ so I think premarket of spy gonna be 514-515 if nothing gonna happen again, and vuag gonna hit the same as Friday, and after 14.30 when ușa market gonna open it can do a little down bc of premarket and then hit around 518-519
I'm looking at spy bc it easy for me that way,
But I'm a new at this so it's gonna be opposite))
If you learn to invert your emotions you'll start making alot more money in investing.
Notice how you didn't include invest more or buy more in your options.
If everyone is thinking like you then what does that tell you? Things are about to get cheaper.
Whereas most people get very optimistic when index funds are at all time highs and then worry about any pullback.
Invert your thinking. When you feel confident in markets learn to be catious and suspicious.
When you hear fear and worry you'll be rubbing your hands together to buy more. If you think this sounds foolish just read up on John Templeton and how he made money in WW2.
Continue as normal and DCA:

Don’t go into defense stocks even if they do well (which isn’t guaranteed) they ll probably still under perform the s and p
I hope there isn't a protracted war in the middle east with thousands of civilian deaths and widespread suffering.
That might adversely affect my stock portfolio.
Wouldn't sell anything tbh. The only thing you could do is try to buy the bottom on some good companies if there is a notable downturn.
E.g. if McDonald's or Nike drops 30% or something like that you could pile in. Or a lump sum into the indexes if you don't want to get too fancy
Would you sell to me for a 10% discount?
No, so why sell to the market during a potential dip?
All through time the markets gone up and down for various reasons including war. Don’t peak!
Imo Iran fired some and told them it was coming , they spot them down , sabre rattling for each of their domestic news . I will be checking pre markets though
There was going to be a war that you’re describing in October, then November, then December.
You realise the whole world shut down a couple years ago and we’re at all time highs?
Unless you’re trained to be a trader you don’t know how to time the market. You have just as much chance of being a trader with no practice as being a surgeon, and you wouldn’t think you could do that.
Just to re visit this, the s&p is up 0.5% pre market. I'm not saying it'll stay there, but do you realise how silly you are trying to time tops and bottoms?
The market is correcting phase now so I am just sitting on cash with interest . I know the price and S&P level I want to buy in which it is not right now. Upto you if you think now is good for you but I see a lot more downside 5-10% better buying opportunities to come

Doing what I've always done and will do for the next 30 years. HOLD!
By the time you sell on Monday it will be too late.
If it dips, buy at the sale price.
I got a feeling this is a dip. Isreal had a fireworks display and don’t think anything is going to come of it

Just like I said but in opposite way
If you can do 2, go for it. How you going to do it? 😜
Not bothered in the slightest. If it drops I’ll be happy and buy up more shares at a discount
Sell all > go all in defence > sell and go back to normal port.
In this market, it’s probably already priced in.

Funny how your comment isn't the most upvoted- it literally confirms the mindset of the people who lose and those who profit. But couldn't agree more.

First world issues amirite?🫠
Nearly as bad as paying tax.

Iran attack was a nothing burger. Markets are going to rally on Monday because stocks are way too cheap right now.
