@Jacob Lapp depends on your long term strategy ..these type of meltdowns only happen once in a while/generation -like any other asset you have to do your due diligence for stocks (look at I.e value metrics such as P/E ratio, etc).. yes stocks are way more volatile than real estate BUT there is no denying that there are many value stocks that are selling at 25-30% discount -my plan was to hold for 1-2 years and reinvest in RE. “Be greedy when others are fearful”

@Jonathan R McLaughlin you wouldn’t buy low in stocks?
