Login to my accounts is unavailable. Not a great sign.

Doesn't matter. We'll ride it out, and I was expecting a drop anyway.

I don't think the drop is anywhere near done. It would be nice, but a run up is usually followed by a drop followed by a run up followed by....

I have to sell a substantial amount of stock in the next month to buy a house. But I had intended to sell Asian and emerging market funds that hadn’t gained that much over the years and haven’t lost as much this week.

And about half of what I need I’ll get from selling NY tax exempt bonds, which are actually up this week.

The silver lining is I’ll owe less capital gains tax than I was anticipating.

Higher than it was under FDR, too.

I don't think this is a minor correction. Recession on the way, if it ain't already here.

You’ve been wishcasting a recession since January 21st, 2021.

I tried to login to vanguard to sell some of those munis while they’re high but the site is having issues.

And at such an opportune time.

And if the recession happens during the first part of 2025, and President Trump has been elected, then the recession is his fault? LOL

Of course not, but if it doesn’t get fixed by him, then we look for new answers in 2028.
