October hit on the markets tends to be seasonal thing.
Not concerned myself.

Housing & construction in this area are going strong. Unemployment is below 4%
and it’s hard to find employees.

Problem is the guys like us don’t cause this. Dumbasses behind a desk do

Food for thought and a good explanation of our current economy... and what/who is running it.

I just have a tidbit and thought I'd share here.
I just started a full time job in August with a company that is pretty large and falls under a well known umbrella of companies.
Upon hire, the 401k arrangement is company match to first 3%, fully vested 3 yrs.

Got a notice about a week ago that new plan is match 6%, and fully vested first year. The letter said due to the tax cuts. One way of spreading it to employees was this change. Nice.
