 if you need the money this year and  its in stocks, you took a hit because you were stupid.  but you still
have a lot more cash than you had on his first day.  
if you’re retiring this year and things are so tight that a 10 percent drop screws you, then obviously you don’t keep that money in stocks.  
if you’re a few years out, and still contributing, these dips are a godsend.  that is a mathematical fact, and no degree of Trump hatred can refute it.
