Because your Apple is over-represented in your 401k or because of the knock-off effects on the world economy?
The first is fairly easy to fix, the latter is really a bigger problem than your 401k anyway.
- mullingitover 3y agoThe knock-on effects. The market would take this about as well as it'd take NASA announcing that they have some really bad news about 99942 Apophis.
- Marsymars 3y agoYeah, but the actual cause of the problems to retirees wouldn't be "the market", it would be the actual harm to the global economy. At a macro level a 401k is a small slice of the economic pie, and their values are just a reflection of the economy at large - if your 401k value tank, it's either because the economy is also tanking or because your 401k's portion of the total pie is shrinking.
