U.S. stock market loses $5 trillion in value in three weeks

Summary
The U.S. stock market has lost over $5 trillion in value in three weeks as the S&P 500 fell 10% from its record high.
The decline, driven by concerns over Trump’s trade policies and slowing economic growth, has led to weaker consumer sentiment and cautious corporate outlooks.
Barclays strategist Emmanuel Cau noted rising uncertainty among investors.
The selloff has also hit AI-related stocks, with Nvidia down 17% and the Magnificent Seven ETF falling 16%.
My finance app automatically increased my retirement age by 8 years as a result of this. Retirement accounts, though diversified, are tanking. At least I have years to wait this out - I feel bad for anyone who was planning to retire soon.
Good time to buy. Might get a couple more shares in each parcel purchase.
Terrible time to buy. Economic things are very unstable right now and it's very possible that the market will go down much much further
I just have it all automated through my job, maxing out the 401k there and a Roth maxed out through a robo-investor. I'm not smart enough to try manually buying stocks. I did dump a thousand into random stock and crypto a few years ago and just don't touch it.
To be honest, if you wanted to use the money in the short term, you shouldn't be all in on stocks
