Largest trade made in the Japanese Yen today since 2019.

So the measure of XLY/XLP (things you want versus things you need) ETFs broke down horribly through a trend line. It's 100% possible that this snaps back up soon, but this isn't a great look right now.

It took 25 years for the U.S. stock market to recover from the great depression.
IMO that's where we're heading.

My portfolio, very very defensive, has always outperformed the S&P 500 during uncertain times.

Buy boring and resilient. Sit, reinvest, and wait.
