The Sky is Falling or Buy the Dip

Last week, especially Friday, June 5, 2026 was dismal for the stock market.  Memory and space stocks took a big hit.  The S&P 500 was down over 2%.  Looks pretty ugly.

I used to agonize over whether to keep my investments or sell them before they go lower, since my metric was how much assets grew to support our retirement.  Last year, I changed our metric to how much monthly income our investments generate, hopefully independent of volatility.  This dip will help me understand how this new strategy is working.

For now, I'm going to hodl what I own and refrain from buying the dip at the current levels.  If the dip goes another 10%, I may reconsider buying into some existing positions.
