If you're not watching the market between the hours of 9:30-4, it might not seem like the market is acting all that unusual.

But telling people to ignore the noise is telling people not to be people. It's not practical advice. It's important to contextualize short-term losses, but we can do better than this. Morgan Housel spoke about this idea, helping to reframe how we think about bear markets and recessions.

This market is savage. The index finally cracked, but many individual names are splattered on the cement. The last time stocks gave up intraday gains like this was during the dotcom bubble.
