      No, you shouldn’t empty your 401k; that’s a huge taxable event.

      What you might consider, though, is reallocating the funds within it. For example, I exchanged a big chunk of my US stock market index fund for an international stock index fund a day or so ago.

      This is not financial advice, but trying to time the market is usually not a good idea.

      Despite the absolute shitshow that’s going on right now, I don’t expect capitalism to implode. Yet.

      Sadly.
