Yesterday was the worst day of the yr for the S&P 500 at -2.7%. Turns out even the best yrs usually have a bad day. I found 22 times >20% for the year and the average worst day in those years was -3.5%. 1997 had a 6.9% worst day and still gained 31% for the year in fact.

The S&P 500 is down over 8% from its February closing high. Over the last 75 years, the average intra-year market drop has been close to 14%. If you are overly stressed out about your portfolio today, the stock market isn’t for you.
