I’m amazed by how many people on Reddit are now sitting on the sidelines

So many people seem to have halted their stock contributions are even sold. Yes the market is a mess and who knows what the short term future will hold but isn’t buying everything at discounted prices right now a good thing? If you stop DCA’ing and the bottom hits that’s a alot of wasted opportunity that you could’ve been contributing.

I personally don’t know what the right play is right now just talking out loud and trying to decide if my personal weekly DCA is the right thing to continue haha. I don’t have access to a 401k with my employer, but I max out my Roth IRA the first week of each year and then contribute weekly to my brokerage account and buy VTI.
