Nobody likes a sustained red market across the board. Sometimes even the slightest bit of news that can be rationalized as “good” will cause a green spike.

This morning enough people woke up and realized that nothing fundamentally changed yesterday. So back to selling.

I don't think anyone in this comment section actually understands diversification. You diversify to eliminate idiosyncratic risk, not systemic risk. You can eliminate some systemic risk by investing in other asset classes, but with that comes a much lower return so it's rare to see. This post isn't a good reason not to diversify, because an undiversified portfolio is still exposed to this same systemic risk.

Truth is, this is probably a bad time to invest in equities. Trump decided that a booming stock market was his bet bet win the 2020 election, so he got Powel to print money out the ass to keep things afloat. And now the entire S&P 500 is insanely overvalued. It's going to implode. Not sure when, but its going to implode. You can take that to the bank.

You wait till this happens, and then you buy in when things are cheap.

This is the massive problem with index funds. A single industry has a bearish day/week/month and well-performing industries with solid companies get dumped on at the same time because they are included in the index fund. Collateral damage.

You have to be 100% in or out of the market because of it.

You're not supposed to diversify over sectors of the same market, but over continents and asset types. Cash is up relative to the stock market (ideally you have CHF which has historically been insanely stable for decades although did worse than Dollar today). Gold is up. SCI (China) and ASX (Australia) are doing fine. Real estate is zooming but risky right now.
