There's a moment on the market right now that resembles the summer of 2024. It is unclear whether this is just a correction or the beginning of a full-fledged bear market.
The bears, as always, crawl out from all the cracks: "That's it, there was a peak, you were deceived, we're going down." Optimists, on the contrary, say that there has not been a peak yet, growth is ahead, but now there is a temporary correction.
The fact is, no one knows. There are no 100% answers and there cannot be.
The market is a living system where everything changes. Macroeconomics, politics, and investor sentiment all have an impact.
Trump threatened tariffs here, the markets got scared, the capital went into cash and short-term bonds. Even the gold is falling! This means that the big players are not ready to take risks right now.
But that doesn't mean it will always be like this. The situation will change, but no one can say when or what will trigger it.
What should I do in this situation?
1. If you have a long–term strategy and clear exit points, just stay in position.
Don't get stuck in the market 24/7, don't look for answers in chat rooms, don't argue with alarmists. Go for a walk, play sports, spend time with your family. Unsubscribe from all news channels.
2. If you're really scared and you don't want to take this risk, reduce your position.
Sell a part of the asset, sit in the cache and watch calmly. You'll come back later, but with less profit.
3. If you are sure that this is the end, exit the market completely and just look from the side.
No one's holding back, don't mess with yourself.
The main thing is to take your position and follow it.
Don't rush from side to side.
Now is a good time to develop.
So we keep our focus and don't get emotional.
Have a nice evening and a great weekend!
